If there was a sage option I'd use it.

master troll or supreme homosexual? i remain undecided

Think how popular an enforced, fresh no boxing server would be if done in the P99 style. I think the boxing thing is what keeps people antisocial and therefore gives less reason to stay after whatever you're trying to achieve is achieved.

On a side note, I never visited this server's forums but the reception over at TAK project was pretty hostile - can't make a successful server if the community hates newcomers.

?

Honestly curious. Having played there since day 5 that perspective isn't something i'm familiar with since the split in March.

Yes there are salty members on any server.

Part of the problem was how you first engaged with the community on the forums, Swish. Going into an established community and trying to change well debated and contentious issues to suite your personal goals will never go over well, especially if that community is already stressed. See how well "Lets enable PoK books! or "Why no maps?" threads go here on P99 forums.

I am not sure what happened in game, but I have found the TAKP community to be friendly.

have you tried p2002?

[Sketched]

I am not sure why I would since I already play on TAKP. I prefer to support an open source project that has the ability to fix complicated mechanic issues. Even if content moves a bit slower.

There are plenty of examples of anti social behavior you can witness every day on P99. From people playing a solo class to elitist exclusive mindsets, I think you are greatly exaggerating the problem of boxing.

As you have admitted yourself, you didn't even check our forums, most people commenting on the social aspect of our server are greatly surprised about how social and welcoming people actually are despite the boxing.

Both the development teams of TAK and P2002 greatly encourage people to host their own version of the server with the code, under their very own rules. If the market for a non boxing server is that great, why are there no non boxing servers available? If you had channeled all your negativity about boxing into actually hosting your own server, we might have a tangible comparison by now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I know a bunch of people who would be interested including me if you didn't allow boxing.

Love PoP

Just sayin!

FYI. I am very pro boxing.

If you want to preach anti-boxing at p2002 or takp, you will not get a friendly welcome. They allow up to 3 boxing. They don't plan to change that either.

Hands off GM policy is great at low populations. When u start attracting the wrong crowd, its a cesspool.

Neither server is bad. They just have different philisophies how they should be run.

Just saying...
