That's is exactly what we who play on blue would like to modify.

It doesn't need to be a requirement, it is now because of the way variance is implemented, however there are ways to use variance with classic mechanics to solve the issue of poopsocking, while keeping the fun of the race in tact. These tools are already built into the game, but like the many other expansions, are not enabled on p99.

From the threads I've read and people who I've spoken with, the general feeling seems to be these ways have not been pursued either because of a lack of inspiration, or the ease of simply adding another variance to marginalize targets to deter most individuals from the experience which lightens the server load.

Although it may be hard to imagine, not everyone likes PvP EQ... What are you after by repeatedly insisting the folks that enjoy most other aspects of blue switch to red for an experience they are not looking for?

If she says she doesn't like anal, she doesn't like anal... although it may seem like a perfectly viable option from your perspective forcing it in is no way to change minds or make friends.

There are other ways to promote red pvp, if you would like, I'd gladly make a quality promotional video highlighting the fun elements of p99 red! I don't have a bard there, but I'll roll one up to level 34 to shoot it properly. Let me know if this would help the red cause.
