Subject: Re: high level bard suggestion


I would like to take a moment to address that issue. The message boards on EQ
Vault for some reason have flamed FoH every step of the way. They call them
cheaters, exploiters, and worse. I have found this to not be the case. I have
come into contact with several FoH and, although they may be short tempered and
rude sometimes, this in no way precludes cheating, exploiting, or worse. They
are the highest level guild in the game because they are willing to give up
their external lives, if ones existed, and play EQ 18 hours a day. I am not
willing to make that sacrifice, are any of you? They earned their positions and
all the benefits that come from it, so it is unfair to flame them in fits of
jealousy, which is what those on EQVaults message boards do.
