Talking to Bornakk about Raid Rewards in Cata

[Khatovar]

Nothing. But then, why is this avenue being closed off? The burden of proof I think should be on an argument to deny some players participation, rather than having to proof they should have that opportunity.

Who is being denied? You keep talking like Blizzard is only allowing guild advancement via this one tiny aspect. They aren't, and I find it kind of laughable that you talk about Blizzard denying players something, when these small guilds are built entirely around preventing other players from joining.

Yes, the system IS pretty fair, and in my humble opinion, extending it to include very small guilds would make it even fairer - hence the question I pose then is "Why shouldn't Blizzard change it?" Again, I think the burden of proof should be on citing some reason to actively exclude some portion of the playerbase, that is, the initial assumption of any system should be to try and include as much of the playerbase as possible.

You explain to me why they should? You say 5, but why stop there? I can still be the highest represented guild just playing 2 toons in a 25 man raid, especially in a world full of vanity guilds. So why 5?

You're getting too used to the Wow Forums. I would hope these would be an area where members could discuss things as adults, given that most multiboxers tend to be more mature types. Post a link where anyone on these forums has claimed that the system being proposed prevents small guilds for partaking in all forms of advancement.

I don't read the WoW forums, thanks. And I never said anything about this preventing anyone from doing whatever they want, what I am pointing out is people seem to think they should be entitled to every single thing no matter how they play, and if BLizzard doesn't agree, then they have something against you and they're actively out to get you. Like this

I just don't understand the negativity behind small guilds. There's no harm in small guilds. No-one's hurt by them, yet Blizzard seems to have a negative view of them.

For myself, and I pretend to speak for no-one other than myself, I am merely disappointed at Blizzards anti-small guild attitude - and merely stating opposition is not QQ.

Again, it's not that big of a deal, and yes, I do happen to be lucky enough to be on a server where there are three other 5-boxers and a number of 2-4 boxers. However, merging guilds sacrifices the benefits of the guild banks we all now have access to, so again, why should we be forced to lose that functionality?

And how exactly does that prevent alts from other guilds from JOINING your guild and YOUR alts joining THEIR guild? No one loses banks, no one loses their guild name and now you've got 2 separate raid forces so both guilds win.

But you seem to be far more interested in proving this is some sort of persecution than being happy with the fact that we've all, yes ALL, got a new collection of toys to play with in guild perks.
