ash, we have friendly conversations and have known each other in-game for awhile now... but, please only speak to things to which you know to be fact rather then spreading 1/2 truths on the forums just to try to make your case look better.
of the 13 members you refer to. only 1 of them was recruited post patch and is still in the FC. the rest were internal and here long before progression started. 3 of the players in question no longer play the game. 1 is on a different server. the 1 that was recruited has been on our ts off and on since T5 and wasn't in the FC due to raid time conflicts that recently cleared itself up as you should know.
we don't have to explain ourselves on the forums. but, as you of all people know, we don't run static groups. everyone's spot is always up for grabs in each group. BG ran like 4 groups to gear out the 8 people ended up killing T9 world first. does it really matter how many different people we had in for those kills? The most important fact about any member in any group along for any kill is that they are "in the free company". never once has a guild or server first been done with someone in the group outside of the FC.
the "second group" if you can call them that: they have seen almost the entire group retire from the game. or in your case, removed. even still, do you see them posting all over the forums about downing content with members outside of the fc? no, you don't. which is exactly what your FC is doing with the protection of calling yourselves a [LS] because your company doesn't have enough solid people to do it on its own (be it times, RL, whatever the "insert excuse here" you want). as you yourself said in-game "the FC is made up of a group of friends, we didn't/don't have enough for content so we have the LS"
Please link our progression group ever bringing in a pug. if it is any other group, it doesn't matter. the FC as a whole has already finished progression.
as far as this thread goes.... the only people saying that LS's should be counted into progression are the members of the 2 groups who cleared T9 as a group of friends outside of their FC's. it is not up to you, me or them to decide how the person who is running this thread chooses to do so. if/when the time comes that Drex decides to open up this thread to include LS progression, you will find me in the PT finder setting up a group to become a LS.... feel free to stay in your FC's and join me. we will get top 5-10 server ranking depending on how many other LS's get set up.
I speak for myself and not my FC... my beliefs are just that, mine.... and this is directed at no person in particular rather this conversation as a whole... if the other servers are so much better and the way they do things is so much better. you are free to transfer to one of them.
grats to everyone on your kills. there is no need for all of this drama on the forums and in-game.... if you don't like the way this thread is being ran. feel free to start your own.
I am done here
