To Sirken/Staff - serious discussion

[Nothxu]

Truth hurts bra. Farm all the fbss you want.

I joined Nihilum because I played on Sullon Zek with Nizzar and saw he was leading a guild here. Knew nothing about the server when I joined besides the fact that it was a pvp eq emu that aimed to be like Classic EQ.

Why didn't your pals mobilize and kill Talendor then? Andis what's the deal dog?

[pharmakos]

yeah if Azrael couldn't kill little old Talendor in 2 hours, i don't see how variance would help anyone but Nihilum

its Talendor.... there's probably people on Blue that would be able to kill him with 3-6 people if he was left up long enough.

It comes down to Nihi have mass invited EVERY person who WANTS and is CAPABLE of raiding at all hours of the day. Those left are the ones that even Nihi doesn't want or that are too burned out IRL.

And any of those that are on, don't care enough because this server is DEAD.

There are plenty who can login, but WHY would you care about a DEAD server? This server is on lockdown by one guild. You explain to me why anyone wants to contest a server that is for all intensive purposes, Nihilum's Box?

Bad leadership on Azrael side. Bad mobilization. Bunch of VZTZ burn outs. Etc.

how does it feel to get absolutely shit stomped 60-0 twice in a row at the botb by a "VZTZ burnout" wearing a tattered mantle and feathered leggings?

[Andis]

point is, this is a red server, being made into a blue server, and staff should realize this

I'm just trying to give an option for change, and why not give it a shot?

It's been like this the whole time, no guild v guild pvp cuz nihilum, outnumber and make up about half of server pop

no one is saying make it permanent, but at least give it a shot damn

Ok so when the server came back online..

-How many players logged on within an hour?
-How many of those players are raid capable?
-What % of those players were Nihilum?
-Did they all go to the same location? Where was it?
-Where did everyone else go?
-Have the smaller guilds attempted a truce on respawn days?

In my honest opinion, adding the variance PvE has would mean everyone else gets NO raid targets. This is quite a similar situation that happened on eqlive during classic. So wtf.

Everyone that currently wants to raid and is high enough level is in Nihilum. There were probably 120 people on last night within an hour of the server being up. Nihilum had over 50 people at one point, then it dropped to mid 40's (probably some boxing for buffs/teleports).

Out of 120 people there may have been 10 people max that were level 60 that are not in Nihilum. Basically everyone that isn't in Nihilum that is in raid range went to skyfire and ran into a wall of 40 something players.

PvP didn't happen, 1-2 hours of buffing and mobilizing with uncontested splurts of 10 second PvE happened, another day on red99.

[pharmakos]

the only reason they did Variance on BLue is because there would be 300 people standing on Venril Sathir's spawn point every time he was going to pop

Variance does nothing but make it harder to kill raid mobs. it will not help the second tier guilds on Red, period.

This.

i actually dont agree with variance. i think not having variance allows for the maximum amount of pvp HOWEVER im not going to deny that was zergy as hell. trust me guys, variance would not have helped. nilly has just too many god damn people.
