I'm a player from one of the original pvp servers, and I would be less likely to continue playing if SZ rules were added to the server. And if item loot went in I'd just be one of the players running around in only no drop gear :S

You should read my post again. I agree No Drop with Item Loot rules is problematic. I have 2 wonderful solutions to that. What part of SZ ruleset do you specifically disagree with or 'scares' you?

Training is not pvp, and level 50s camping crushbone noobs would certainly not be a good thing. I'd still play with item loot in, but I'd feel really mean for taking people's items and it would suck a lot losing my own :/

Because those things would only scare more of the population away :P

I disagree. People aren't zerging to join this server from all over the gaming world. If people are playing here, it's because they're familiar with the game, and EQPVP in general.

Personally I don't see the point in EQPVP if there's no reward for killing the other players (besides coin loot zzzzzz). No scoreboard for bragging rights, no item loot and no yellow text and shitty exp rates are probably bigger reason why people are leaving.

It feels like the server is blue with shitty PVP.

I, also, find it tough to take the Dark Side in KOTOR. So do many others... they are often called Anti-PKs. We sometimes find it fun to band up and hunt down PK guilds. In fact, this was the main occupation of most Rallos Zek players.

Training is certainly PvP. If you had ever played SZ, you would know that. It's a perfectly legitimate (and extremely fun) way to fight forces greater than you when there is no hampering Play Nice policy in place, a policy that muddies the waters of the rules and many take advantage of.

It's very cool that you had so much fun on SZ, but most players do not want to put up with all that grief. We need bluebies to play here, and we're not going to get any by training them.

Why would you want a bunch of people that don't PVP to play on a PVP server ?

PS: Training is as blue as the berries on each side of your twig.

Guys this thread isn't meant to serve as a repository for any random complaint that you have with the server. I'm sure that list would be a mile long and start with "someone killed me and I got mad".

Let's focus on what will actually bring more people here.

Complaining about exploits is not going to do that.

Everyone has a personal opinion on server rules/structure (item loot, teams, whatever), but ultimately I don't think that is what's stopping people from playing either.


The only thing worth discussing, at least in this thread, is exp rate. If I had not talked to so many former VZTZ'ers or TZT'ers who passed on this server because of the exp rate (again, specifically the early levels), I would not have posted.

I want to see those players playing here. I do not want to see this thread balloon into a bunch of incessant whining and/or random wacky ideas for your custom pvp server. Keep that shit out.
