But basically, can you explain to me how this would look good to a random player whose slightly interested in the server?
The average player doesn't care all that much? A few level 50s isn't going to ruin their enjoyment of the game. And most people don't see something like this and immediately go down the crazy conspiracy path of thinking this means the staff is corrupt and only helping out their buddies. I mean, if you are right and the staff was just using this as a way to help their friends, why even bother? Why not just use GM powers to make all their friends level 50 with full gear? Why do this in such a visible way?

Sir, you clearly haven't read most of my posts. I do appreciate you finally addressing me instead of just name calling and trolling though.

For what it's worth, I don't think they did it on purpose to level their friends. Just happened to be something that for whatever reason they didn't fix immediately before server dropped.
The entire time I've been advocating from a neutral, outside point of view. Not my own. I'm really astounded that this has been that hard to grasp both here and on TAKP. As for the average player, I wouldn't be so sure. There have certainly been quite a few cases of server GM abuse of power or epic melt downs in the EQ EMU scene that I'm sure have put more than a few on notice.

You're right. I don't spend my day looking up Mandalore's posts in order to better understand your complicated point of view. Instead I just assume that when you make a post, you stand by the words in that post and don't need to add volumes of context in order to understand them.

Do you really believe you have a "neutral, outside point of view"? You're causing a lot of drama for no real reason and everyone besides yourself is wondering what the fuck your problem is. Maybe you spend so much time browsing P99 forums that you think this level of drama is normal and absolutely neutral, but it's not. This level of drama from anyone who doesn't have their own reality tv show is rather abnormal.

He's not causing drama, he's presenting a point of view which is well within his rights I would say. I'm actually curious what your stake in all of this is, Orruar?

For someone who's presented the point of view that 'it doesn't matter', you sure seem to be doing an awful lot of crazy-making and gaslighting of anyone who disagrees with you.

I, for one, am not 'wondering what the fuck his problem is'. He's explained his position. All of this "you're a bitch, stfu idiot" stuff coming out of your corner makes me wonder what the fuck yours is though.

I think it's funny that you accuse me of spending too much time on the forums when you have quadruple my post count and probably have another 10x my play time on the server.

Really, out of about 10 posts you've had two that were anything but trolling and name calling. Honestly, how hard would it have been to say, "I disagree with this view point and here's why"

And Secrets, wasn't trying to stir your shit dude. I think that the normal level of hostility on the forums has just bled over so much that everyone thinks that every little statement is to be taken in the most negative life. I literally meant "whatever reason" as anything ranging from lack of time to it being a complicated coding problem.

I apologize if my stance has been hard to comprehend. Text is always pretty hard to tell nuance with when you don't personally know the person. For example, I've been thinking Orruar is just a retarded cunt who can't tell the difference between my personal views on the server and what I think could potentially harm it from an outside point of view. But odds are better that we both just have vastly different opinions on the matter and are talking past each other.

How does it feel, douchebag? You spend post after post trolling and stirring drama for no fucking reason, so hell yes I'll do the same to you. Don't throw stones in glass houses, bitch.

Really don't see how I did. I posted a dissenting opinion on how something was handled. It was kept civil and I didn't call names on any post until my last few after about four pages of circle jerk.
