Default New Server - We're ready

My bros and I are ready for the new server. I've even got new players who have never played everquest on board and waiting for the orders.

This is what I don't like about a red99 server. I don't like people getting banned for training. It should be like a sandbox. Anything you can pull off in game should be legal. As long as the population is healthy enough, which it should be for a while if a new server opened, the server can police itself. You only have to put up with shit heads when the server population is so low you can't afford to shun people.

If you don't like how something plays out in the game try to hard code a fix first and don't make the solution a /petition war to get everyone banned.

Short sighted thinking. Catering to the same 50 neckbeards who will play either way leads to tumbleweed town population levels. Needs to be casual friendly if you want to fight over dragons and allowing training is mistake number 1.

You and I are mentally ill enough to play a 50 pop red server with little-to-no CSR support and training (Be it red99 or a 150 pop RoZ with 3 boxing) but most people aren't. I'd rather play on a box with a decent population.

Look at RoZ atm, its literally 7-12+ hours of people training each other over nagafen, I may be autistic enough to play Everquest in 2020 but I got kids and a job and a limited tolerance for elf bullshit of that magnitude, just like the VAST majority of potential players for a new server.

Yeah training allowed is a big no-no. There is no lifers that will do that shit until 4-5am in the morning, I know this for a fact cause I stayed up until about 2am one night helping, trying to prevent my guild from getting trained lol

Nobody has time for that lol

Dulu isn't lying, this isn't an exagerated comment at all. This is actually what happens atleast 2-3 days out of the 7 lol.

An I am confirming it isn't fun! I was Rick on RoZ this is true.

Clearly a naive statement from someone who doesnt understand what were dealing with. If you let people train, they will push the enveloppe to its extreme. Think youve seen everything? Watch people take shifts to train Solb for 48 hours straight.
