Its the inevitable conclusion to the custom xp loss mechanic on red99.

Holocaust before server opened bragged about how they had 45 people and would dominate the server.

Another guild, it could have been any guild really, counter zerged.

Why zerg? Cause thats how you win, and the custom xp loss, no matter what anyone says, hurts. Holocaust used that zerging tactic first, and it blew up in their faces. Their shitty personalities made the guild self-implode and is too cruel niche "lets laugh at the guy in a wheelchair" to attract more than a few sociopaths.

If theres no xp loss, or is trivial, numbers count, but not as much.

Im not saying there should be no penalty to dying.

A couple of solutions were offered, such as reverting to the Rallos death penalty, respawning with low health and no mana.

This way you could have pvp'd all day and then when you were done, could pick up pve wherever you left it off.

Zerging and people getting griefed off the server is a direct consequence of the xp loss mechanic, now softened with the xp bonus tweak.

You can hardly blame Nihilum for having played the numbers game, and its really funny to see Holocaust pointing fingers when they were there first.

Now theyre crying cuz with their douchebag personalities, they cant keep up the roster.

Im still having a blast playing, but this is what i think is the problem.

XP loss should be if not removed, at least lessened from say 1-40. Ive heard that a resist patch is coming. Im going to be sad if this is the death blow to the server because you have unkillable twinks running around deleveling people.

Pointing the finger at nihi is stupid. Dont you want a server to play on? Then think about what i just typed.
