New (old school) opinion

[Alawen Everywhere]

I have to strongly agree with Yukface on pretty much everything. The manastone camp was a complete tragedy and I can only imagine the nightmare that some of the Kunark camps will be. This boss camping shit going on between IB and DA is the lamest drama I've ever seen in my history of gaming, and that includes Kirban training the shit out of us all day every day on SZ.

If you're curious, Yukface, the raid situation devolved to this because after six months no one could beat IB at mobilization. They made up all kinds of weird stories to explain why it was unfair (GMs told IB when the spawns would be, third party software, psychic powers, you name it). Then the zerg recruiting and camping began and we have... this.

Bon appetit! (I'll take ape tit for 800.)

Sounds like what you want is a PVP server. I am pretty sure all "carebear" servers were subject to the "play nice policy". Don't let the door hit ya on the way out!

Couldn't agree more. Yukface, you may have lots of play time in well populated live servers but you lack experience with the EQEMU community. There have been countless attempts to re-create the classic experience in both the "pve" and "pvp-hardcore-non-carebarish" manner. None of them worked and they always either shutdown or dramatically dropped in players. This is the very first server to EVER get it right (next to SoD). To openly allow other members to steal proclaimed camps would only add to problems and likely add to a shitload of training. It's a domino effect..

He stole my camp so I trained him!!!

"Wtf, I didn't steal his camp!!! and he just trained us... *more complaining that spreads to forums.. etc etc..*"

lol...i dont know whats funnier, the fact that someone with such low self esteem took the time to build that site.. or that you linked it. Go join a gym, youll feel better about yourself. honestly consider this some fatherly advice.

Why thank you! I did not think of joining a gym! Now I guess I will return the favor. You should go read some books; Valuable information has been hidden from you in them. While you are at it, you might also go see a life coach for that nasty case of asshole ya got [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I can buy that. Again, just don't profess its classic, its not.

You act as if I am saying people should just go all willy nilly and train and ks and grief everyone, I am not. All I am saying is that if you were actually sitting on camps instead of locking down multiple spawns at once while being half afk. you would realize that people typically wont walk up and steamroll a camp with a body in it. But that isnt what happens is it. What is happening here is people have had this server all to themselves to do what they want when they want, and thats fine. but if your ass isnt at a camp and its up.. dont think for a second you deserve a CC. thats a joke. If you want a mob sit your happy ass on it.. or go cry to that great carebear in the sky. Because I assure you I wont CC, and I will screen shot the camp.. and if i get banned doing so...well then I had fun leveling and I'll find something else to do...no worries. As far as raiding goes...the population fully supports contested mobs... not allowing that contest to happen is cheating yourself out of the greatest part of the game. if you fail to see that I wont ever convince you, and thats fine, but i have this problem where .. well.. i speak my mind.

Perhaps we should remember that this is not a live server, a great majority of the players here do so for free, and the owner of the emu is beholden to no one.
I should think, that when the population increases, as it has done quite a bit lately, there might some deliberation on changing some of what has *worked* with the smaller player base. I would not hold my breath were I you though.
This is a situation where if you do not agree with how the owner of this server and his delegated representatives run things, you have but to quit; No one is forcing you to play here.

And whether I agree with your points or not, it is how you present them that makes the difference...You catch more flies with honey, than you do trying to wave your e-peen around.

A ss won't save you if you didn't call for a cc like the rules explicitly state.
Goodbye.

I've actually heard enough of GM Favoritism for the last god damn time. Can it Alawen.
