What are you talking about? You haven't lost a thing, and neither have anyone else. You have put in zero effort or time, and you expect something in return? You should be glad you had a little extra time on your hands this week, cleaning the house, studying, making some extra cash, getting that haircut you so desperately needed etc.

I don't like the idea of exp week, probably because I'm already 50 and have no desire to do it over again lol.

On a different note, I really hope this exp bonus is a one time thing, even if the server comes down again. I'm not sure anyone will understand or be familiar with my reference, but during the Vietnam war, American PoWs were brainwashed through a pretty simple process: getting them to do things they would not normally do one step at a time, eventually building up to make these PoWs become completely irrational and change allegiances to the Vietcong.

I guess this will be a better example:Getting a new car and telling your friends not to eat or drink in it. One of your friends asks if they can chew gum, and you don't want to say yes but you comply. Next, someone asks if they can bring a drink in your car, and once again, you don't want to say yes, but you do. Taking that first little step makes one that much more inclined to take another little step.

Anyways, I'm rambling, but the point of this is, The GMs are granting this 50% exp bonus for the downtime. I hope this will be a one time thing, but I worry the GMs may be more easily inclined to grant future exp bonuses or things of this nature. I also saw something about people receiving potential prizes or gifts for their donations. It's fine if we have to pay for this game, which I'd be more than willing to, but trading money for advantages is going to ruin this server and make it like all the other emulated servers.

Hopefully I don't get flamed for this, I'm just expressing my concerns for the well-being of the server.
JUICE?! THE MOST EPIC TANK EVER?!

Well lets look at this point by point.
1) you should prob do 1-50 again, sorry juiceman

2)what the fuck do the techniques implemented by the viet-cong have to do with this server and the tactics rogean and co employ? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

3)future bonuses? This has been the first "bonus" and is only because we got juwed from a ddos kiddy, when we couldve been exp'ing 4-5 days before the server move.

4)in regards to donating for in-game items/advantages, this has been STATED BY THE DEVS IT WONT HAPPEN.

Also it's not classic.

If you're going to mess with exp penalties, why not take away class exp penalties, which is classic (implemented during Velious).
Implement having to stare at your spellbook to med ASAP.

Pyro demands that we keep things classic. Everyone can thank him personally when the GM's fix this.

1. Thanks for your concern
2. If you would read the article i posted, and understood English, you may get it.
3. I didn't say they WOULD implement future bonuses, the whole point of my reply was how this may be the first stepping-stone to grant more bonuses.

If that was your only retort you should have not even replied.
If that big, long, obnoxious, immature, and uncalled for "STFU" retort was your only retort, then you should have not replied. And for the sake of others sensitivity to annoyance, you should have turned your caps-lock key off before you did. take a look around, I am not the only person who objects to the 50% exp bonus.

By the way I have started a thread on the bonus. I put it under 'Rants and Flames', which is where I think it will be most appropriate.

I need a haircut? Shut the fuck up, my hair is short for a girl.

And as a matter of fact, due to not being able to log on, we did indeed lose exp we could have "potentially" gained.. Items ect.

And as for the cleaning the house/studying comment, my boyfriend does that tyvm since i make him dinner every night and have graduated culinary school and BRING HOME THE $$

Actually i have a much longer retort relating to your insecurities in having to bring peoples looks into the matter but i just went with the cruise control for cool method.
