Why there will be no raid scene changes here

[TotallyLegit]

This server is not going to see any changes to the raiding scene and the reason is very simple. If you run an EQemu and own the associated forums where advertisers pay you per hit, and in-game disputes drive people to the forums, would you do anything to ease the drama on the server?

This server will never get better, and Velious won't be out for a long, long time since it will be the end of the server and then the forums will die.

WHAT A MORAN

[Tasslehofp99]

If you really want to talk conspiracies might as well go full retard. Main reason there will be no changes is because the people running the server have nothing to gain from it, as long as TMO kills 90% of all content there's a steady enough flow of rmt cash coming in. The forum ads probably only make up a small portion of the costs of running the server. Donations factor in as well but who.I'm their right mind would continue to make donations on a rigged and corrupt server? That's where the supplementation of TMO rmt money comes in.

In other words money talks and bullshit walks, TMO has the plat from monopolizing content...therefore they will continue to dictate the raiding atmosphere on p99. <(unequips tin foil helmet of light>›

the big loophole here is that if the people running the server really wanted to they could just create platinum and rmt it themselves or create it and have tmo or some other lackey sell it for them. they dont need mobs to die in order to generate platinum to sell is what im tryin to say

Someone like this probably believes that the commercial airplanes are spraying chemtrails, we didn't land on the moon, and 9/11 was an inside job, and Obama is spitting out executive orders against guns to 'stimulate the economy'. I'll never understand people like this.

I can't fathom why someone would troll the staff, so I guess this is a serious post and you know what I'm going to click some of these advertisements and pray that it will extend the life of this wonderful throwback experience.

Hmm I wonder why IB left the server to begin with.. oh that's right, they were driven off by TMO! Has nothing to do with Uthgaard/Amelinda bullshit they had put up with forever. :rolleyes:

I'm sure that was a completely isolated incident however, and absolutely NOTHING shady goes on here by any members of server staff of players. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

[Tasslehofp99]

Want to see how fast server runs into the ground if TMO ain't on top? Lol, it sounds crazy but believe it because there used to be regular in game announcements about the project managers running out of money to run the server a lil over a year ago. Whats happened since then to change that? Oh just TMO monopolizing and selling millions of plat in dragon loots and epic mqs. I really just feel bad for the people in TMO who put work in to line the pockets of whatever shady council runs things.




P.s. bush did knock down the towers, his dad was involved in the JFK assaasination...and his grandfather ran a bank which supported the nazis during world war 2, lol. ;)

[Tasslehofp99]

Btw ephi is a good guy, and the only one of the current server staff members I have ever spoken to, I don't know enough about them to make accusations about them being involved with rmt. I'm just simply making observations.

No one even tries to argue about it anymore cause its just common knowledge now...so its ok alarti you can calm down with the TMO spin mission now and go back to wishing you were as cool as eccezan. No one beieves anything you say anyway, cept for TMO's warm bodied sheep squad who unknowingly (prolly anyway) pile stacks of plat/rl cash for those in charge.

I may have left for several months, but when I was around I was always with the guild and pulling my share and some. I've made one mistake and I apologized for it on two different occasions (at least).

I don't get this line of reasoning.

I used to be an officer in a raiding guild back on live, and we never dominated the server like TMO does here. Probably got about 10% of the loot distribution compared to what TMO gets here, and yet that was more than enough to cover the costs of reagents/charges/buying items .. and our guild bank never went under several million.

So, you didn't raid as much and you didn't kill as many targets and being on live you didn't have very large variance windows which means you didn't have a very large guild full of raiders like TMO does.

Yet, you don't know how your's and TMO's guild bank situations are different?

Sheesh, just selling the trash loot was enough to cover costs.

Is this how bad pvp has become since live? Of everything you do on red99, this was the highlight you thought worthy of sharing?

Bahahaha. Root lands ( not classic), root doesn't break after 5+ nukes (not classic).
You still almost die ( despite root completely incapacitating the monk) in a 2v2 where they have mobs on them and only manage one kill before having to gate.
Great pvp man! ...What the fuck?
Also nice fucking music.

[Kagatob]

Makes me wonder when/if Velious opens, whether that will actually help the server enough or not. The 10+ high quality raid targets and the several tens of other targets added should theoretically relieve some of the pressure on the classic/planes/Kunark mobs.
If what has been said about TMO's desperation to be a shift-playing 24/7 hold every target always ever guild is true, oh well I guess. More power to them for recruiting more and more people into their self-perpetuation of not amounting to anything outside of a 13 year old video game.

I’m not in one of the “top end” raiding guilds, nor do I intend to be, (been through that PoP-OoW on live) I want to play this game, I didn’t apply for an unpaid fulltime job. I do however want to get an epic or two (note this means earning them by actually completing the quest, not purchasing the MQ) and down something somewhat significant maybe once or twice a week with some friends.

It’d be one thing if the other “top end” raiding guilds were the only ones ‘suffering’ (it’s pixels, I use the word suffering lightly) from this guild’s monopolization of these mobs but it’s not. Every time I walk through EC it’s “Jboots MQ” “Epic MQ” “WTS my toon”… This type of shit never happened on live aside from the occasional MQ, which was almost exclusively guildies helping other guildies and it not being one of the most prevalent ways to make plat.

To be fair TMO isn’t responsible for all of this, but it’s a big player and it’s becoming horrifyingly obvious that they are greater than the rest of the factors combined.

[Autotune]

Needed to cover reagents, recharges, alts used to track, gear for members, gear for the guild (Rez Staffs, Pre-Nerf staffs, etc) and to stockpile plat for Velious+.

The more plat the guild can build up the better along side buying upgrades, reagents, recharges, etc.

There is no reason for TMO to keep the items laying around, but there is considerable need to sell off that loot for platinum.

Seriously you say you aren't a part of the end game and then you make statements that prove that you aren't a part of the end game because you clearly have no idea how the server was compared to how it is now and i'm just going to keep typing this shit with no punctuation so hopefully you can't breath as i'm quite positive you're one of those mouth breathers who also has to sound out every word he reads and thus without a punctuation pause for you to breath you might pass out and or die now please leave us alone we don't like your uninformed opinion on how things are when they clearly aren't

I don't believe you know what the word "need" means.
A millionaire doesn't "need" to become a billionaire to remain wealthy. If they had the ability and proceeded to do so that is one thing, to do so and to also claim that it "needed" to be done however is absolutely retarded.

[Kagatob]

Can't defend a point for ones life so immediately resorts to ad-hominem without addressing a single issue, only lightly touching on them without even specifically addressing a single one. On top of that makes a point not to punctuate because he/she thinks they are cute?

It's needed as every platinum earned today will be less platinum they need to farm in Velious during the start. Who knows how long it will be before Velious target loot will be getting sold for plat.

So, a good stock pile to keep things functioning as normal is necessary. I seriously don't think any of you can think very well.

This is assuming you stop whoring the entirety of Kunark/The Planes during that time, which won't happen. You don't suddenly stop being able to sell all of those items during that time. Your statement is completely invalid.

So, a good stock pile to keep things functioning as normal is necessary. I seriously don't think any of you can think very well.
You already have one, it's obnoxiously large and could easily fund over ten-thousand more raids. Where you are right now, every one of your raids generates up to 100 times plat they are to run. You're spitting on everyone's faces and you know it yet still have the audacity to deny it.

The amount of misinformation you are spewing out to attempt to hide your simple greed is disgusting.

Your guild is very public about how often they raid, what targets they take down and when. Knowing how much money is generated by raids (again the claim that they cost money to run you keep blowing out of your ass is fallacy, [raids are ALWAYS profitable provided you don't wipe at the entrance and ditch.] stop kicking this dead horse.) it's not difficult to conservatively calculate that your guild bank should have an order of several tens of millions of platinum on the raids/sellable droppable items alone. This is all without factoring in the MQ sale epidemic that is plaguing this server that again your guild is also monopolizing.

It's not an opinion, it's basic number crunching.

You suck at observing the obvious, mainly because you're oblivious to the obvious. You aren't trolling on purpose, you're just fucking stupid and indirectly trolling because of how ignorant you are.

How much money is generated at raids? You suggest that you know, please, tell us how much.

Tell me how those items equate to platinum when they are extremely hard to sell, especially how some won't ever be sold and will go to member alts (mainly because they won't sell before velious and definitely won't be sold after).

TMO only has a corner on the VP key MQ and Class Epic (like 3-4 classes) MQs. Every other MQ can be done by any guild and is done by guilds.


You are a very terrible troll who is obviously bad at "basic number crunching".

Don't bring up fallacy and then immediately commit logical fallacy. Argumentum e silento. There is also a faulty generalization and at least 2 other fallacies in there. Lets see if you can find them.

You think you are factoring in all the information but you are completely wrong.

Post the truth about Amelinda and TMO riding dirty, get posts deleted by Ambrotos. (one of her buttbuddies)

This is why this server is a joke. There is a single guild immune from punishment for getting caught exploiting multiple times, MQ2/SEQ use, etc.

It's not a legitimate atmosphere for competition. The server is fine if you want to casual it up and never raid, but if you want to raid legitimately, it's a farce.

Do you realize that you've been ranting about the same things since before TMO was a significant factor in top end raiding? TMO didn't stop you from becoming a top raider on P99. This server is very much like every live server I played on. If anything is particularly different, it is that the GMs are much more involved in settling disputes.

Whiners gonna whine.

[Doors]

TMO's being TMO nothing new.

[BigSlip]

Is this how bad pvp has become since live? Of everything you do on red99, this was the highlight you thought worthy of sharing?

Bahahaha. Root lands ( not classic), root doesn't break after 5+ nukes (not classic).
You still almost die ( despite root completely incapacitating the monk) in a 2v2 where they have mobs on them and only manage one kill before having to gate.
Great pvp man! ...What the fuck?
Also nice fucking music.

not exactly pal, just the most recent 2v2 i had frapsed.

wasnt expecting root to land but i was basicly trapped, monk had tstaff anyway.

i allmost die because shaman hit me early with a poison

monk burned 3 golem wands on us but kept himself rooted... and my pvp is bad? rofl

glad u like the music my lady.

I don't think it really matters.

I recall failed raids, not something TMO is really accustomed to at present and hasn't been for quite some time (correct me if I'm wrong), generating enough plat to cover costs of reagents/charges at the very least - and there really isn't that much more needed for most if not all raids.

Unless TMO is doing something so totally different to what most guilds were doing on live then something doesn't really add up. Which I suppose is possible, but what is it?

Makes you wonder how any of the other guilds haven't gone bankrupt!

its way too late in the game for there to ever be a significant change in the way raiding operates on p99. neither velious nor the supposed removal of variance will fix it. TMO simply has to firm of a grip on the server. they have had 2 years to prepare for velious, the second of which has been almost entirely free from competition. when it finally drops TMO's zerg army is going to come down on it like the hand of god himself. but dont think for a minute that will cause them to lessen the grip on the old world targets, as it stands there is not a single that could even step foot in VP and TMO is going to keep it that way until velious drops. that way, even when velious does spread out their force the other guilds are still going to have kunark content they have to get through before they can even hope to compete with tmo on velious. in essence this will give them free reign of velious until another guild can catch up, but by that point they will already be secure enough in their position that we will be right back where we are now. so really, unless you enjoy shitting in socks and waking up at 3am to try and compete with the TMO zerg there is no point in trying to raid here. it will always lead to disappointment, ya sure your guild might knock off a dragon here and there but TMO will always control 90% content

TL;DR? if you want to raid stress free join TMO, otherwise move on or dont raid

so are you disagreeing with me? TMO isn't putting themselves into a position to not only dominate velious but also keep the old world content on lock? please dont take my post as condescending, i know in the past ive have spewed forth my share of TMO hate, but that last post was clearly not one of them. i am pretty much over trying to bash tmo or whatever. consider it more of a resignation, i dont see the point in continuing to compete with TMO because they are simply too far ahead of everyone else to make it worth it. i am by no means saying its not possible to usurp them, it will just take a level of dedication you arent likely to find outside of tmo. those that had the desire have either already been assimilated by the zerg or have moved onto other servers. if anything you guys should feel good about yourselves, in essence, you've won everquest.

Velious is gear progression.

Does VP gear help? Some, but you do not need it to win Velious encounters.

Want to unseat TMO?

Be better, thats about it. The playing field is leveled in Velious because you are basically starting from scratch (minus epics).

When Velious comes out you won't have anything to cry about if you aren't getting any raid mobs, you are just bad.

if you think for one minute that TMO's dominance of the raid scene now isnt preparing them to dominate velious then you just have your head in the sand or are clearly deflecting away from the truth of the matter. ya sure velious encounters aren't "dependant" on kunark progression, but im sure having a fully geared and equipped guild, with another fully geared and equipped alt force is going to give TMO quite an advantage in velious. will it be so much of an advantage to completely hold all content? i guess thats still up for debate, but my main point, is that they are so far ahead of everyone else now that the effort needed to dethrone them is simply to much compared to the reward. at least for me anyways, call me "bad at everquest" all you want, i simply have better ways to spend my time then poopsocking, clinging to my batphone or fighting with a bunch of basement dwellers over some emulated 13 year old pixels.

You are bad at everquest if you think poopsocking will exist in Velious. Plus why do you have to dethrone TMO to raid? Or is this what BDA wanted all along? There is simply much much more opportunity to raid in Velious. Dethrone TMO? Ya that won't happen until we quit. Have fun raiding... yep Velious!

[Tarathiel]

i wouldn't know i quit during kunark,my opinion is based off knowledge ive gained through researching the topic and through playing on p99

Plus why do you have to dethrone TMO to raid?

because TMO currently kills 90% of raid targets. nothing has convinced me this will change in velious. sky, hate and fear clears get boring after about the 50th one, im sure the same can be said for similar velious raids


Or is this what BDA wanted all along?
i dont not speak for BDA in any capacity and never have, my opinions on the p99 forums have always been my own, and only sometimes coincide with the official stance of my guild(which for the record i have no been active in for sometime)

There is simply much much more opportunity to raid in Velious.
obviously, but this will be countered by TMO's massive zerg army,who knows tho maybe im giving you guys too much credit

Dethrone TMO? Ya that won't happen until we quit. Have fun raiding... yep Velious!
i will be, on one of the many truly new and exciting mmo's slated for release this year. have fun raiding the same content you have been for the last 13 years and reliving the "glory days" of mmo's



long story short? after nearly 2 years of playing on this server i have become quite pessimistic and a bit jaded on the hope of there ever being a fair and level playing field in the p99 raid scene. my above answers to your questions are only one aspect of the problems that plague the raid scene, between the cheating, RMT, under-handed tactics, douchebaggery, and loose interpretations of the supposed "rules" there will never be a place for legit players in this raiding community.

You are jaded its obvious. RMT who gives a shit. The only reason it is not allowed here is due to the possible legal ramifications. It happened on live (its classic). The rules have swung multiple ways but can you really feel jaded about this when it was largely in your favor?

Take a break, get off the forums, clear your head. Come back for Velious, Don't miss it twice. The only reason TMO is here is for Velious. Kunark seriously sucks as a raid expansion. Do not miss Velious is is the pinnacle of MMO fun imo.

Without experience in Velious you cant accurately project the situation. TMO can not poopsock in Velious. Velious is dangerous. Mobs quadding for 1150 that rampage (hit another target) AoE and other nasty things. <Insert Boromir Picture Here.> One does not simply poopsock in Velious. You have to fight your way to alot of encounters raids can take many hours. Baddies have 400k-1mill HP. <Insert Pic 2> One does not simply zerg rush Velious.

Outside of raiding there is tons of lore, tons of good group content, tons of really good quests, good solo stuff, good tradeskills.

Plus I'll be playing TESO, or EQNext when they come out anyways. But nothing commpares to Velious, nothing may ever compare to Velious.
