We are leaning towards a server with no item or coin loot, however there will be an XP Loss on PvP Deaths. We are open to discussion on this.

correct me if i'm wrong, you mean no item loot, but coin loot?

or no to both of them?

Pvp is more fun when you discuss and disect it afterward. YT and leaderboard enchance this ability.

By discuss and dissect you mean stroke your tiny e-peen.

PvP belongs in game. Reputation > Yellow Text. YT and leaderboards only encourage griefing and plugging. Some of you are so afraid of – dear god – being yt'd it's ridiculous.

No arguements. Just apologies.

I am sorry you never rose in skill enough to join SZ and were relegated to TZ.

I am sorry you are afraid of YT.

I am sorry you are afraid of a leaderboard.

Now stfu about yellow text.

If you're any good, and we all know you're not, you won't need yellow text to develop a reputation.

This is a good and valid point. I don't like the rest of the post persnally but this in itself is a good point.

I support this.

Oh lawd, who still takes SS's of killing people? That is so 2002.

I don't care about YT, but I think keeping global /ooc - at least early on - is a good idea. That way people can see which of their pals have made it to the promised land by finding them in one channel, instead of having to '/who all' constantly.

Also, especially early on, chat/actual grief will be to a minimum, as everyone will be trying to level moreso than talking shit + slaying each other.

please give us /ooc global

Is there a way to have 3 global channels so if your in Antonica you only get that global, Faydark, etc. ?

agree. very good reason to keep ooc for at least 1 month. newbs will have questions for the server also. everyone will be having a grand old time in ooc

There's forums for that, and IRC.

This isn't 1999. ALT TAB

Macken knows all about being afraid of the yellow text. If he spent half the time that he went LD on zoning actually PVPing he might have made an actual name for himself. It's the same retard mentality that he and others hold that justify YT and leaderboards. They don't encourage PVP. They encourage ganking and plugging, just as juicedsixfo stated, as if either of those two "skills" define your level of PVP.

You can't fight against item looting because it will "deter new players" yet encourage ganking and plugging as valid means of PVP and not expect the same outcome.

End of story.
