so the gm`s (sirken & derubael) blame the red community - Page 7

It would be kind've nice if a do-good'ing GM would stop by the various raid battles happening nowadays. They're not that frequent and are pretty easy to predict given how many of the major spawn timers are clustered together.

Either that or just amend the PnP to be intentionally more lax in raid battles. The current situation---where training is technically illegal but plays a major role in essentially every large PvP fight anyway because it is so radically unlikely to result in a sufficiently costly suspension or ban---is a particularly frustrating situation.

I don't think any change targeted primarily at the high end is likely to do much for the server, though; I think Derubael's pointed this out before. I figure most of the people quitting are being griefed off the server by Abualfreeporti or Maximillien in the 1-35 range, not by Lite in their 50s. Most of the presently level 55+ folks in particular are rabid die-hards, and particularly difficult to actually drive off, although this seems to be changing somewhat with the current wave of people hitting 51+; anecdotally, it seems like we have a fair number of people who are actually kind of new to a lot of EQ and are now entering Red99's 50+ range, which is really surprising, but maybe a natural result of the huge group exp bonus.

Anyway, I've run into the occasional person helping to buff random lowbies and handing out free items and stuff. Some folks even help to drive off the uber-twinked lowbie PKs. That kind of stuff does more for server population than anything else, in my opinion.

Thats how i play my toons. I started a guild to PVP people like leduke in crushbone but i dont play much anymore. Theres not enough people that do that sort of shit and again to me the fault resides mainly in past staff decisions which pushed the server toward a pop that has a high concentration of pathetic individuals whose sole fun is ruining the fun of others.

Also, you the people in "rags" refused to call LNS, poor poor victims?

literally the dumbest thing on the box, e-pride for veterans in holocaust more important then 90% of the other guilds progress and fun having...

one wonders if they ever score some fat pixels, how the fuck is that shit going to be fairly distributed if they care so little about their new players they are not even ready to call lns (which has zero impact besides perhaps the pride of some players, like rexx would say, who cares?)

taking about pride, which guild spent 72 hours corpse camping 4 people who weren't even logged in praying for a LnS message in ooc?

dumb post - holo cares more for their new players then AZ does, unless of course your suck cock hard or RMT or have an in with the vet's.

How many epics/planar raids has AZ done for new players? oh wait, yah.... hokuten was the last guild that did that.

like I said, dumb post smedy up your game you're better than this.

actually, you are the victim by corpsecamping newbs making them quit the server.

seriously, fuck the server rules cause lite&friends will always find ways to grief players. ive never read the serverrules and iam still not banned. why? because iam using common sense.

this portion is not only a real issue but its one of THE issues we have on red99.

in sirkens words in above podcast:
stop fuckin making people not want to play here

love it when you're talking about griefing, you saw no problem in chasing me around norrath with your fully epiced wizard striking down a lvl 54 sk with more or less rags + an aon (which doesn't really help in 1v1 situations)

not sure if srs or dumb as fuck, actually... i'm pretty sure you have down syndrome dog

whats dumb about it? call lns and keep playing? what the fuck...

there's been rules developed to counter corpse camping like this, why not use the rules implemented by gm staff instead of petitioning and wasting their time? you nigs dumber then a bag of rocks

Out of curiosity, is there a world for you where if Azrael are defeated holocaust does not reform/kick out the majority of their current roster? I'm not saying that's a bad thing but it just seems like you may wake up one day to choke on that Kool-aid.

I killed you once and moved on. Not sure what you're trying to say here.
