Managing the Masses can be difficult

[Vormotus]

There is a well known axiom, that states, more or less, that ANYTHING done in the spirit to help certain underprivileged groups or factions to try to equate them to bigger groups or factions, ends up just furthering the gap between them as the already big factions or groups hog these allocated resources for them due to their expertise, numbers or elite access to information.

Though I disagree with the idea of Luclin, I can understand some reasons for it.

Saying it is for "breathing room" is ... something that really has no logical place in my own personal opinion.

EVERY single time in EVE Online (I come from there) any kind of mechanic or xpac was aimed at beginners or underdogs, it ended up being hogged down by the bigger alliances by sheer numbers and power, which is logically what would occur here.

We do not need breathing room, there is no need to change, there is no need to rush, to grab this model of BiS gear as the ultimate paragon of existence and then apply it as a lever to push content out.

The game and server as it is right now , does not NEED it at all.


Honestly P99 is awesome as it is ... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

A fixed state permalocked "classic" server is sublimely beautiful and absolute perfection.

It is bliss in stasis, a monument to a moment that is no more and yet ... is.

You can feel it, breathe it, sense it and play it ....

Conceptually it is a Diamond, cut and polished.

It is here, it is NOW. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Seeing it as something else than what it already is , is wrong.
