The group is always trying to get more flexible .. what other choice do we have?? You think we just stick on 1-2 jobs and wonder why we can't beat anything?? What do you take us for?? You're fine, you're on Asura with your 8-17 people and able to easily get more with one or two yells.
That's not the case here. We're not moving because of those who stay loyal to the event ls, and our social ls is the only one around who even puts pearls on the concierge. We can't ditch all those players so we have been making do with what we have for ages. Not months, but well over a year and a half. I've got quite a few to jump server to join us in that time. People come and go though, and finding new people to replace those who go on holiday, or form their own groups, or vanish altogether is exceptionally hard. We have 200-400 players online on average at any given time, and half of those are afk/muling. Half of the rest of those are casual players who ain't finished Rhapsodies yet.
It's not just a lack of players, it's a lack of quality players who are event ready. It's also to do with timing .. which really, we should be way more EU time friendly then we are, but because there's not enough on at that time we run later to accommodate the NA's coming home from work. This is tough on our German players who have to stay up very late and get tired. It's really hard to manage at times. We'd do weekend events but family gets in the way of me running those regularly. And I've been leading endgame linkshells since the old dynamis days .. my old dyna ls wrecked everything including DL & Tavnazia. I'm very aware of what to do. I been leading linkshells since 2005.
