Insanity :10 hours per manastone, there's like 12 people on the list now

Be kind to each other.

Can anyone confirm if Brad McQuaid died while camping the Manastone after 65 hrs of no sleep while sitting on a wooden box?

Too soon?

PvP would result in at least twice as much whining as there currently is. Things people would complain about if PvP of any kind were enabled:
• Being killed by a higher level character
• Being killed by a player with much better gear than them
• Being killed by a wizard, SK, rogue, or cleric (since no one has MR gear) - aka complaining about EverQuest's class pvp imbalance ("stupid wizards, they're ezmode" / "Stupid SKs, one-button win")
• Being killed by a player using terrain to their advantage (aka cheating)
• Being killed by a player using tactics the victim does not understand (aka hacking)

and MOST OF ALL:
• "They outnumbered us! Zerg losers!"

Add your own!

We all considered the plausibility of it.

Another eq dev, whose name unfortunately eludes me (Matt?), unfortunately passed away two days earlier than Brad too.

Killed by what they love?

To be honest I think not, Brad was known for having occasional binge moments. I don't think this was one of them.

this is why pvp is the only solution

If people want to complain they aren't being gifted quick manastones, enable pvp for 24 hours and see what happens.

Lol. Accurate bluebie mentality description is accurate.

No one wants your PVP server. That's why they are commenting on the new servers that actually exist. Problems? Sure, but PVP isn't the solution.

I'm a bit concerned with your own mental abilities if you think his statement is questionable.

Put it into context. Someone spent over 75% of a 6 day span AWAKE barely engaging in anything physical and eating like shit in order to acquire a legacy item that isn't that useful for many classes and is only useable in the old world, on an emulated server of a 20 year old video game.

There could even be people doing this crazy amount of time for the second or third time who have already done it on the first instance of this emulated server. None of that is rational or logical.

Once they stop dropping and people start selling them, you could probably farm enough plat to just buy one in less than half the time.

I'm a bit concerned with your mental abilities writing this blob of text you think I care about or will read.
