why red sucks. by Cymeon. Someone you all know, but don't and never will.

Red sucks because:

1.) Actual EQ live. 90% of the actual population of everquest in 1999 fucking hated rallos zek and the shithole of people that inhabited it, and all the forthcoming PVP servers after it. People who play for nostalgia reasons stay the fuck away, because, of that 90% of people who actually played blue server back in the day never played red99.

2.) PVE vs PVP. The actual people who keep the box alive are Nihilum members, no matter how much fucking shit talking Azrael and the rest of the box put out. No offense to Azrael members, and I'm not talking shit. Lite is my *****. Truth be told, without Nihilum's bluebie fucking status, no other guild would have incentive to compete.

3.) Toxic players and ooc. No "normal" emu'er wants to see the shit thats spewed in ooc. shutting ooc off doesnt resolve the fucking problem of the shitstains on this server. The player base has a majority of good, decent-hearted players. But ooc and the shit talking that goes on is a fucking UNBELIEVABLE deterrent to any player on blue that might want to change pace and play on red.

4.) The staff changes. Now while I can not knock the effort put forth by the staff to make the server better, making it worse to make the end effect seem more prevalent is a fucking shit show. Un-fucking-be-lievable. Why make shit worse before its better? Downgrading a server that is already on its last legs is a blow below the belt. I love the staff, more than the player bases could imagine, but red was finally starting to build steam when the exp was nerfed in hopes for future prevalence.

5.) The population. Now, this is a catch 22. Who the fuck wants to solo to 60? RED PLAYERS. Who doesn't want to solo to 60, just to get ganked ever step along the way? BLUE players. commons fucking sense people. This is a P99 PVP server, yes. I accept that. PVP servers on live never held the player base that the pvp servers did. Its not a surprise that an emulator has the same relative statistics. Bottom line is, if you want to PVP on an emulated p99 server, stop fucking bitching that the pop is so low and just play. The pope is never going to be equal to blue. It never was in live. Take it for what it is.

6.) THE FORUMS. Last, and certainly most important, these fucking forums. I have been an advocate of shutting these fucking forums down since day one of my registration. People l you other fucking assholes who constantly spew NOTHING on these forums to pass your time, posting pictures of racism, porn, stupid shit . If a blue player even thought the red server might be a cool place to check out would INSTANTLY lose interest in ever spending time on this server.


To make a long story short, I have been watching this server progress for over a year. You don't know this forum account, but you know me. Stop being fucking FAGGOTS and make the forum AND the server a somewhat hospitable place for bluebue rejects to come and have a good time.

Corrections, due to alchohol:

1.) "thole of people that inhabited it, and all the forthcoming PVP servers after it. People who play for nostalgia reasons stay the fuck away, because,"

should read:
of that 90% of people who actually played blue server back in the day never played on pvp servers.

5.) pope = pop

more to come.

Red isn't for everyone. Rolling on red with no pals, no gear, and no guild support network is like going into BUDS and hoping to come out a Navy Seal. The attrition rate is massive. I started here solo and made some pals along the way, fellow new players without a pot to piss in, out of 15 that I met somewhere between collecting bonechips and cb belts and City of Mist, I think 3 still log in.

Red has lots of flaws, you outlined many of them that are beaten to death on the forums on a daily basis, but a lot of the equation falls with the player who chooses to roll here.

+/- 4, increased EXP, and maybe shielding them from the harsh server realities that are ejaculated across their ooc chat box might help in player retention but at the end of the day most ring the bell because they don't like being PKed (and refer to it as being griefed) or don't like a highly competitive environment.

I agree server needs to be more casual. I was dumb to think otherwise. I'll admit XP nerf was a real bad move. And that anything else to make it more hardcore and less blue is dumb.
