Why is an operation that has this much RMT allowed to stay around? You nuked casinos because of RMT nuke this stupid fucking shit too. Sadly it's too late as its already destroyed your server.

But then redwjamz might have to get a real job. They already took away his Cab farming exploit. Cut the guy a break already!

(I do find it hilarious someone obviously RMT'ing has a twitch stream though)

...except for when it comes to them leveling alts, then instead of doing 'classic' leveling in 'classic' groups in 'classic' gear, they're all about Chardok AOE groups to level up their Rogue who is twinked + has its epic.

It boils down to the mindset of "I've been on this server long enough that I'll gladly disregard the 'classic' feel of P99 that brought me here if it means I can cut corners and bypass any content I'd like"

I agree with this...but, EQ to some people is all about bending the sand-box game to their will.

You come into the game with absolutely nothing. No gear. No abilities. Your first encounter will almost certainly be finding a lvl 1 snake in a newbie yard and hitting auto attack. EQ's challenge is the world setup or the sand-box (there is nothing "hard" about hitting auto attack). You do this for days and day of rl time...slowly gaining control of the world around you. Pushing deeper with more safety and confidence of success into the world. Over time, you expand that sphere to much of the world if you keep at it.

For some folks, the ultimate success in EQ is turning this stupidly absurd world upside down and taking control of it. Chardok AoE leveling is one way of doing that. From that perspective, I can see how alluring going practically afk and coming back to a lvl 60 char would be...all without cheating. Its a giant way of saying "Screw you EQ, I win!"

The RMT, zone disruption, exploiting, etc all are all out of bounds. These are a different problem though.

No kidding. You can turn his stream on and it was either cab or Chardok aoe.

BRING BACK EC TUNNEL CASINOS!

Apparently they were outlawed because folks were using it to "hide RMT" (even though they put themselves out there /shouting "HEY LOOK AT ME I'M A CASINO" for everyone to see.)

The dirty RMTers are clearly using chardok to RMT. Either ban Chardok AoE groups because it is used to "hide" RMT, or bring back EC casinos!

Surely, now, I have backed the mods into a corner on this issue!! Excuse me while I go stretch out my dice rolling arm.

"Can't work", streams for 20 hours at a time.

Just a pathetic individual in every aspect.

He's lonely and will die without accomplishing anything of value. It's been said before, to win hard at EQ you have to lose hard in life.

The damage done by Chardok AOE to the server has already been so extensive that there's no point in banning it now. It really, really needs to be banned from any future servers though (whether that's Teams, Refresh or Blue II).

This.

1. Velious
2. Limit PBAOE to 40 targets
3. Remove item recharge
4. Raid rules fixes (mobs spawn ~4 at once, replace windows with constant chance per tick, server broadcast to eliminate tracking, players must visit a 'rally zone' after logging in to prevent poopsocking)

Result: a game that kinda sorta feels like EQ!

[Man0warr]

No one will AE Chardok once it gets revamped.

Too many unstunnable named mixed in, people wanting to keep faction, and lots of groups will get priority by the GMs.
