Training can be pure faggotry.

I usually laugh the first two or three times, but when you see guilds that purposely do it for hours w/ no reason, other than to harass, it gets old. I'm talking about people out of pvp range (i.e. fully buffed lv 20 in lguk w/ faction) zipping through the zone trying to wreck people.

In 2002, I was at my buddy's house getting ready to go to the bar, he always wanted me to play eq, I thought it was gay. Well that fateful night, my life changed forever. I watched him log in his 21 rog named noobslayerr and clear Pauladual Caverns of about 25 people in about 10 min. I was interested at this point. Then I watched him log in a 65 human sk, train a group in Plane of Justice with the entire basement, all the random NPCs from the rooms, everything. All I saw was : A High Guardian of Justice executes a FLURRY of attacks on Random_noob. Was one of the funniest things I ever saw. I was hooked. I bought the new gold box EQ with POP the very next day!

So if not for training, I wouldn't be here today!

Training is part of the game, shouldn't be a GM issue unless it's done repeatedly, or to wipe a raid.

It won't just be (random) guilds doing it for hours, there will be guilds made for the sole purpose of training. They will train without need for a reason, and reputation will not matter because it will obviously be all alts.

Allow training and watch what happens.

No. None of those gameplay-changing features. Anything that doesn't pertain specifically to the actual PvP ruleset should remain classic.

What would that even accomplish?

I'm too old for a babysitter.

No GM intervention.

Yeah leave the kids at home by themselves, they'll never get into any trouble...

You may not need a babysitter, but I assure you many do. I think I want more of the walk through the house and you just want a phone call to "check up on things" - aka time to bullshit your ass off that you're not throwing the party that is raging in the other room.

i was thinking it would prevent bindrushing in a very strong manner.
