I think this server was better with account sales.

I was thinking about it last night, which in retrospect saddens me for tottally different reasons.. but whatever.
So I was thinking, I bet the reason we have so many petition/letigation quests, is because the server is run so well.. the volunteers and everything is really great. If you think about it, its like, your corpse rots? too bad, why should they help you get it back? someone steels your camp? wtf do they owe you, why should they spend thier time to figure out who gets to keep it? But, they DO care... they DO summon your corpse, they DO want you to keep playing and enjoying classic EQ Thats awesome... thanks for making us care so much we feel we have the right to petition over stuff!!! <3 ty volunteers staff and everyone who plays! <3 p99 | ||

Corpse retrieval =/= camp lawyering

On live, you could be like, 'hey I pay for this, if you dont spend YOUR time getting my corpse, then ill quit and you wont get my monies' here its like, 'hey im sad, your my bro and we love the same things and you're so nice, can you please take time out of your life to make mine better for free?' which is awesome. and that great respect that they give the community here, is why we /petition all the small stuff. | |||

I hate it when people say we should shut up and be happy to have it, you bring nothing to the table.

I've experienced this a handful of times already since coming back to the server roughly a month ago. I think what it boils down to is that despite the Play Nice Policy presumably in effect here, many people are willing to roll the dice on the matter. Not necessarily because they think they'll end up winning, rather because they frequently will end up not losing anything.

Example: "You think p99 staff should have to offer raid supervision and rulings? You should just be thankful you can raid!" Result: No GM rulings, no sense of accountability instilled. The raid scene is worse off and no one has a raid scene to be even be thankful for. Great. Conclusion: be thankful, but don't think voicing an opinion in a rational manner constitutes not being thankful. You can still be thankful and voice an opinion that this server is run by a bunch of idiots or a bunch of genius. The distinction is made when you have a possible solution to your problem that you couple it with. Your "just be thankful" mentality offers no solutions, or possibility of fixing things beyond the state they were created. Finally, the assumption that the staff were drafted or compelled/coerced into their positions. This is a volunteer position, they wanted to be where they are, the idea that they "give up" free time isn't true in the sense you portray it. They gave up that portion of their free time when they applied for the position, and they are free to take it back the minute they don't feel it was necessary. No one has Sirken chained up and is shocking him with a cattle prod until he gets back to the keyboard to "give up" more free time, stop acting like it.
