I didn't realize it at the time, but in retrospect I think one of the things that made EQ great was that its devs and admins really didn't give two shits about their playerbase. They not only force fed us updates and expansions full of bugs, but the original game, by accident or by design, took an entirely hands-off approach to moderating content. No instancing meant that servers had to make their own rules for everything from camps to raid mob rotations. If someone trained you or ninja'd your mob, you didn't petition it like a little bitch - you took it to the server forums and the person who did it would be held accountable. As a result, there was a sense of community in pre-Luclin EQ that's not nearly as prevalent in most modern games. I'm not sure if it was the introduction of instancing or something else entirely that brought about all of this whining, but the number of "this isn't fair to me, I want admins to level the playing field" type posts on these forums is disgusting and doesn't belong in Everquest. If you want a game with a shitload of arbitrary rules that are over-enforced, go play World of Warcraft. | |||

Welcome OP to 2013's Project 1999 not 1999 Verant EQ. While i agree and it sounds like you were on Brell server when you started people here do what they want and have no regard for the way anything ran on "normal" servers back in the day.

If you want something changed you need to have TMO request it. If you want a rotations you need to have TMO request it, after all they got their rotation. Sad fact is prolly 80 percent of the server wants rotation, and 20 percent doesn't, and yes in classic Verant did enforce rotations, if guilds refused to create their own, you just had to push for it. Sadly most changes p99 makes, actually helps one guild monopolize content. Varience, changes to vp, little server respawns, all these things favor TMO more then any other guild. Take out varience, its not classic, you have FTE shout, maybe after the stupidity of sitting 200 people on a mob a few dozen times, the guilds will actually get together and work on high end raiding.

Everyone had a different live experience, but far and wide I think people back then were alot more 'human' when it came to discussing issues.
People on this server have a constant greedy entitlement chip on their shoulder. ( trying to relive their great nostalgia ) This server will never have a rotation so long as variance is around.
