Server going to hell

[raff01]

Just look at the east commonland section of the forum : more people selling accounts than actual stuff...
This is getting wrong...
Something needs to be done.

[gotrocks]

i didnt realize this was new news

[Tecmos Deception]

Server is fine. Forums have been in the 9th circle for a while, thanks mostly to terrible players bitching about every little thing.

[myriverse]

More people are selling pixels... instead of pixels.

[raff01]

Nah, its increasing fast now. People weren't selling that many accounts before.

Well no shit. You and your ilk have a witch-burning mob stoked up on the forums because you think banning account sales will severely reduce RMT which will somehow make you all less terrible, and staff have stated that something is in the works re: account sales. Of course people are getting rid of the accounts they have but don't really want.

This concerns RMT. What I see now isn't RMT, but simply so many ppl selling their accounts or trading their accounts for other accounts or ingame plat.
People simply dont want to play the game, they want it straight to lvl 50+ fully equiped...

People who buy and sell accounts (and aren't RMTing) already HAVE played the game, sometimes repeatedly. It's not like someone who is buying a level 60, VP-geared cleric is jumping right into the endgame or something; they almost certainly already have been 60 with another character (or 3) for months and months.

Or perhaps indeed they want to quickly get plat from their accounts which they know are about to be banned...

[Tecmos Deception]

Wtf? There's no fucking talking to you. You JUST said that the account sales we were discussing were NOT about RMT, but rather about people who wanted to skip past being low level and ungeared. But then when I poke a hole in your argument, you start talking about people trying to liquidate accounts before they get banned.

yup could be either of those 2 reasons. Hadn't seen the recent news.

[Rhambuk]

Get over account sales already, gms have announced they are against it they have announced when they find out how they will stop it, theres a 60+ page thread in server over people arguing about it.

the playerbase opinion means NOTHING when it comes to changing rules like this.

your just stirring up shit so please shut the fuck up.

Cheers! the discussion there is more civil than one you would find here )

[Lanzellot]

People who start a so a thread are envy for sure

to can buy a so a high end char you must Play the game very Long what tecmos said ,and envy Person seen always RMT shut up

right, to buy some of these accounts youd have to put in WAY more time than it would take to just lvl up a toon.

[Briscoe]

Are you so inattentive that you didn't notice Lanzellot went through and bumped every recent account sale thread this morning?

[Lanzellot]

why not Pixels are Pixels and is it forbidden to help other peoples to sell there stuff?:D

[Lanzellot]

just forgot i bumped only accounts they was awesome or the Price was fair .......

[Briscoe]

I'm just pointing out that shortly before the OP started this thread, you bumped a whole page's worth of account sale threads within a few minutes. The poor OP then saw an EC Tunnel forum full of account sale threads and thought that everyone is selling off their accounts all at once at an exponentially higher rate than before.

[Briscoe]

It's an indictment of the OP's mental agility, not your forum behavior.

[Doors]

Tecmos I already have a thread about this with overwhelming support and lady nilbog stating account selling is eventually coming to an end. Why even troll or post in this one.

I mean Bouncer got banned for MQ, openly admitted to duping plat in Naez's irc channel then bought another account to keep playing with. I'm sure Stealin and other banned TMO are doing the same.

At least make these no lifers level back up and build a rep on a new name.

You can find comments of people saying the exact same thing several months after the server launched and here we are today. Some people always need to feel like the sky is falling i guess.

[harnold]

What do you care what other people do with thir account lol? Stop being completely terrible / a huge bitch or quit if you insist on being so obsessed with what other people do with their characters lol.

Probably the most pathetic person who posted about the server in its whole existance

First world problems.

[Autotune]

Doors, Stealin didn't cheat. He was part of an elaborate hacking conspiracy involving other TMO members who are clean. The fact he sold his account the very moment it was about to be banned is just a coincidence.

It isn't that TMO has been caught dirty countless times and he's so pathetic that he needs to lie online about his reputation on an elf simulator that is 14 years old now. It isn't that...

Clueless, I gave up the rights to my account almost a year ago. I came back and played on his info for a few months and thought about coming back. My account got flagged about a week or 2 weeks before I decided it wasn't worth it and retired.

You don't know this because you just got back on after your GF left you and took your son.

People who play p99 period have played the game before. We get very few true EQ noobs here so whats your point? Should you just log in as a 60 since we have all played the game before? Go roll on EZ for that shit.

Never saw a problem with rmt personally, kind of a no brainer actually if you dont plan on playing here anymore and someone is willing to pay.

Im sure technically speaking it could lead to the server getting shut down?? I don't know how valid that is though seeing as how it's been going on for 2 years now (at least)? and the server still trucking along.

The GM's have to condemn it openly to save face of course but it doesnt seem like they care about it too much either.

I just cant place all the steps that would need to be taken from a legal standpoint to go after a server because players are selling things to other players for money. It would be a nightmare for the prosecuting party. It's like Warner Bro's trying to come at me for selling DVD's at a garage sale or something.

Because no one wants to play on a server where cheaters run rampant and raiding guilds act like fucking children when they lose out on a race to a target. P99 is FAR from how EverQuest was on live. Keep in mind, most of the people playing here were like 10-12 when the game came out, so they never really got to do any of the big league stuff because they sucked, and since they still suck, they resort to zergfesting and bitching. There's just so much of it going on that the staff can't keep up with shutting it all down.

[Sadre Spinegnawer]

I would highly doubt this server would "die." mmorpg's die because the designers and the company have no idea how to manage a gameworld, and have no idea how to manage a sustainable population.

I played SWTOR. I have seen what must of been tens of thousands of man hours... for what? An online single player game. With a zillion servers. And broken and/or totally derivative high end content as an added treat.

p99 has a solid gold mission identity, ONE server (you know what I mean), and a "classic" game that I am guessing, anyone who plays online games will eventually hear about, and wonder, hmm, what was it like?

I would argue this is one of the most stable game worlds (this community) and ideas (the concept behind p99) I see anywhere even close. I would bitch about specific issues, but not "the server is dying."

The only way that would happen is if the ability to "see what this p99 thing is about" became too hard to do, or people stopped hearing about it, or, Everquest disappeared from the memory of classic online games. I just do not see that happening.

My advice?

Figure out how to market retro gaming to the Chinese. It would be funny to see the population number on the home page all of a sudden read, "Project 1999; Status UP; players 4,000,000,000"

lol

All you'd have to do is inform them of the nonexistent punishment for RMT and they'd be all over it.

[Mandalore93]

I'm not sure what P99 chars go for, but I would have to assume it's a pretty low sum...200 maybe? If you think about the amount of mind numbing hours they put into that player, it probably works out to far less than the minimum wage if they're selling a maxed char.

[Rhambuk]

can we get a Harrison forum ban?

If he breaks actual rules, yes. If it's just because he's posting that people were caught exploiting - no. He and I have discussed this and he agreed to back off. Now maybe if everyone else will back off (And by the way - quit posting that he's on your ignore list. You feed the problem with that) I think things will be fine.

[Macarena]

Ive always thought that while buying/selling accounts does reduce the quality of the game as a whole, it would be impossible to regulate, and requiring the GMs and guides to deal with such a non-important issue would be a bad waste of GM resources.

All around it would be a great addition to the server but it is not realistic. Don't worry so much about what other people are doing with their accounts and worry about your own and you won't have a problem.
