I only meant not to bring pets this evening, Kitiara. All that happened on LS was Kronos and one or two henchmen showed up, said something along the lines of "We will be able to detect all blackrock in the lands... yada yada... oops... it isnt working... come back tomorrow night." Some folks say they saw a flash of some sort or a sparkling, though I did not witness that. Then it was over.

The only reason I asked folks not to bring pets, is that on LS, folks were training their dragons in the middle of the crowd, obstructing the view of everyone. We couldn't even see Kronos when he DID show up, and then had to resort to trying to read his message through a journal cluttered with "All Kill" and "All Follow Me" messages. I have nothing against tamers, I just ask that people not strive to ruin things for everyone else. Amidst numerous requests for tamers to move their dragons out of the crowds, the tamers decided not only to ignore the requests, but bring in more of the beasts. In the end, the "event" boiled down to a lot of name-calling and GM paging. Aw well, just my take on it...

As for tomorrow, I don't know if pets will be beneficial or not, and would not presume to ask folks not to bring them. Whatever means one has at his or her disposal to combat the darkness I am sure will be welcome!
