Yeah at this point 45+ should be a very elite crowd.

I was pretty surprised with the nag thing as I didn't think there would even be enough 50's on the server to attempt it let alone have camped the gear. Pretty clear that there wasn't enough rage quit over the 24 hour playtime hell levels.

I wasn't that surprised with the nag kill at all, tbh. If there's one thing this server does have it's a *ton* of talented EQ vets who play the game at an incredibly high level. I actually expected raid bosses to be downed even quicker than they were, if you can believe that.

My major point of contention has always been that this isn't EZ Server, and there's zones in this game that are simply giving insanely high amounts of XP per kill way out of line to circa 1999 EQ live.

People are gaining 4-5 levels a day in their 30s, and that's in spite of leaving a half dozen corpses that allows me ding them yet another level. It's not limited to one group or one guild... It's infected this whole server like a cancer and it seriously bothers me that people have turned an oblivious eye to the obvious. Pretty much everyone I've steered to this server who used to play back in '99 who step into Sol A just laugh.

But I mean, what do we do? Retroactively adjust everyone's XP based on a new modifer? Too much hassle? Change it now and punish those who found out about Candyland (tm) too late? That's not a good way to approach it either.

At this point all I want is just an admission of guilt, that something was dreadfully wrong and those who could pull the trigger in righting the wrong were asleep at the wheel, cuz lord knows us players do a pretty lackluster job of bug reporting and policing ourselves (and esp. each other).

A nice added bonus would be to turn the bankers in each city to miner's guild faction. That'd be a fun easter egg for a day or two. rawr.
