... The Purple Nurple

[Pudge]

GMs, could you please respond with your thoughts on something like this?

We could have 1 month where all the blues could transfer, fully geared, only for that 30 day period, and then they get transported back to blue. WITH any loots on their character that they could aquire from Red. This would be an awesome event. Maybe even could hold an event like this biannually. Give the blues a chance to dip their toes and see what pvp is like, and could be, with a huge population. The trick is that they get to KEEP the pixels they acquire on red. This means not only groups or individuals, but entire guilds will come over during this month in order to gear up. Or even just to screw around if they're geared out and want to test what pvp is like.

They could also enjoy our exp bonus... maybe without the 1-50 bonus though, that's a bit much IMO. They would already be getting double exp. So just turn off the 1-50 bonus for that month.

To preserve Red's more pristine economy, make them unable to trade/drop/sell their items (is it easier to turn these features off, or to flag everything they own no drop, and freeze their plat?).

After the month of fun is over, there might be a sizable amount of interest in rolling on red. And then they could enjoy the 1-50 exp bonus to help them get started.


Guys I think this would really be a fun event for everybody, with no down side. (Other than a few red pixels might end up on blue instead of in nizzars bank.) Again, GMs could you please post your thoughts? And anyone else with ideas to make it a good event. Or any problems you think may arise, and possible solutions?

Too complicated to implement.

First 17 minutes of this video we talk about things on Red and how to submit your Red ideas.

I just don't understand the infatuation with trying to steal players from blue. They could have rolled here at any point during an exp bonus week and been level 50 and chose not to. Face it they don't want to play on red. Having them come fuck around on the server isn't going to get anyone to stay and it's just going to make the server garbage for that week/month/whatever.

Just seems like the flavor of the month dum idea that will get beat into the ground over the next few weeks. Oh well, makes for interedasting forumquesting while at work. At least HB posted it this time instead of Stasis so we'll get some decent debate instead of the thing going up in flames within 10 minutes.

I think the initial hurdle of getting them to try Red is the biggest obstacle. I think players from Blue would like it if they tried it. "Stealing" players from blue would be beneficial for both servers. Blue is too overcrowded and Red needs more players.
