  • 10/15/20/25% group bonus (based on number)
  • Xp loss on PvP death

You gained a bit more experience if you grouped up on a PvP server compared to blue but it certainty is no where near VZ/TZ rates or any other emu box, in fact it's only slightly better than p99

If Nilbog is going for a straight classic approach to content including XP rates and penalties expect all the normal penalties from P99 to apply in addition to what I stated above... So don't expect to 1-60 in a day like Voidd box.

That rationale, with nothing to back it up, has been overused.
Good to see someone with at least a modicum of wisdom behind the decision making. Please further ignore this moron Macken please. It's laughable hes pretending to care about the health or longevity of the server. He's just upset that this isn't looking like its going to turn out to be the arena style grief box he was hoping for.

That's all you can do since you aren't allowed to pay.

But to ignore the examples and experimentations that came before them is the height of ignorance and stupidity.

Please forgive those who cannot sit idly by. Thank those who are willing to speak truth to power that the rest are afraid to do.

I think its going to be more of a grief box. YT only caused grief to those with thin skin. EXP loss in pvp imo will cause more widespread grief

I wont disagree with this, because it's true. But people saying that its going to kill the population are delusional.

Reading comprehension.

google it.


"no supporting evidence" is the key. The staff has signaled their intention to make rules which they in so many words state is for the express purpose to maintain a high population with no supporting evidence.

I believe i speak for everyone by saying that much is crystal clear. If that is not the staff's position. It would be wise for them to state so now and furthermore, state their reasoning for offering up such short-sighted, ingorant and god-awful rules.
I sound trolled?

I was showing you how to interpret sentences, and not presume to speak for me.

If you're telling me to google reading comprehension, that's cool. I will suggest you in turn google punctuation, ad hominems, and all the words or phrases you misspelled or butchered. (oppresive*, (there are is), arguement*, postive*, ingorant*) etc.

Back to the topic at hand, can you explicitly explain why slower exp rates are short-sighted, ignorant*, and god-awful? I mean, the same objections were said about the p99 server and how it would hurt population. Those opinions were proven to be false.

Do you have legitimate reasons or do you not?

to me you sound like a guy who wants to win an argument not one that wants to have a discussion. Pvp servers can be frustrating esp pvp servers with exp penalties for pvp. if you have slow xp and the death penalties it will hurt your server more than your pride is currently hurt that somone has a different opinion than you

What Sniperfire said. I dunno how you could keep exp rates the same as p99 with exp loss on death. People are going to bind camp to grief, server population will be low as it is.
