[dev1000] Dynamis Reborn!

[Mojo]

By my read, it sounds like it's going to be an open area with NMs being cockblocked by jackalopes who demand 500K or you'll never see a meaningful NM.

Yeah, Square-Enix, nice improvement.

This is perhaps the most unlikely situation to occur if the NMs are popped by triggers. It demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge or experience in other facets of the game.

For instance, almost every NM in Abyssea is popped by a trigger. Nobody can block you out of them. They might be able to pop one before you if they spam the ???. It's just luck really. But you're stopping them just as much as they're stopping you and with 1 minute ??? repops it's not even a big deal. The only thing that they can do is perhaps try and hold an NM so that the ??? can repop. If this is the case, you can simply GM them (it is against the ToS.)

??? mark repops 1 minute after NM dies, not 1 minute after you pop it.

... presuming the GMs will actually do something about it.

Spend some time in Abyssea, and you will see the cockblockers out in full force at prime times.

I once was ordered to pay somebody not to block us from getting a Heqet.

I told him to kiss my entire rotund behind.

I was also then expelled from my alliance.

And if you would've reported them for it, you would have gotten a form letter response from a GM telling you to go to the site and report them to the STFU. Average wait time for retribution: 5-7 days.

If they even cared to do so.

This quote from a law website sums up my feelings about the GM's and Square-Enix' desire to enforce the rules:

"Fraud is generally defined in the law as an intentional misrepresentation of material existing fact made by one person to another with knowledge of its falsity and for the purpose of inducing the other person to act, and upon which the other person relies with resulting injury or damage. Fraud may also be made by an omission or purposeful failure to state material facts, which nondisclosure makes other statements misleading."

Nice try with the veteran card attempt there, but with four full sets AF3+2, a completed Verethragna, a nearly completed Kannagi and a nearly 80 Ukonsvarasa I'm certain I've easily experienced more Abyssea than you. Certainly enough to say that your complaints are a bunch of nonsense. Competition there is really not that bad. Turn back the clock a little and perhaps compare it to other elements of the game. The disruption that RMT could cause in sky due to the non trigger nature of the NMs there, for instance, heavily exceeded any sort of disruption that I've ever encountered in Abyssea.

Perhaps you missed the part where I covered this by bringing up the GM? If you don't think they respond, maybe try calling them when you have a legitimate issue. I've seen an SGM pop up for this exact purpose within about 15 minutes of being called.
