WRT Ringers.
I resent this description with the utmost scorn possible
I moved to my current guild by choice - not by bribe or any other incentive
I deeply resent the term ''ringer'' being applied to players like myself who have chosen to move from one guild to another.
Were there to be any incentive such as fg for GP's, there are a few of us that could bankrupt a guild in no time flat
Yes, some are more productive than others, but this is entirely by their own choice, not by ''bribery''
You need more than shut-eye -- maybe shut an orifice that is a little lower.
I wasn't referring to you moving to EE from Labby ... that is your misinterpretation to the point of my post, shit I did not even use your username, I can only surmise that you came to that conclusion because I stated the "top 3 etc" was meaning you, sorry to burst your bubble, I did not even think of the names of any of the top 3 guilds, frankly because I don't care who they are, kudos to their efforts, grats, well done, good for them... still don't know who they are.
And I know the numbers game with guilds that could go bankrupt etc... it isn't rocket science when people can do what you or I do when MQ'ing multiple characters, hence the point of my post that it can be abused, i mean sometimes one can get lucky;

Nothing wrong with wanting to make GPs or HOTW an incentive to get more people to play, I just think the idea or reward needs tweaking... I haven't even voted yet or nulled it, was thinking that someone might come in with another idea. Maybe it should be based off of Master Quest totals? but then people will just sit there and whistle all their mules to 71 and purposely fail so they can whistle them again just to get to 71 instead of 85 or more, etc.
I don't know... thinking others may come up with something to reward player for GPs or maybe Guild... we do need some more incentive other than whistling Dixie all day long.
