Troll account, the question is... who does it belong to?

I got money on marcus D. or maybe that guy who took cell phone pictures of his chardok group getting wrecked by the aoe group. He loved to say "manners" and generally press all of the keys on his keyboard.

speaking of formet trolls... what ever happened to that luclin ogre guy,,, having,, all,,, of those,,commas??? in this message?,,, and then, he ask you... your thoughts... you,,, you tell us??,,,

New guild <Young Professionals> Who wants to join ?

I've Trollin' round p99 for the last 2 months, and my experience is vastly different from yours. In my experience so far the vast majority of people I have met have been super cool with helping legit noobies. While I didn't get best in slot everything, people were more then willing to throw me gear they had laying around in their bank, and selling things to me well undervalued for what they were worth because I was a legit noob wearing pieces of leather at level 30ish.

NBG makes sense in guild/friend groups, but as others have mentioned it makes sense to just /random most things. A piece of Cobalt dropped the other day I lost the roll, the guy who won, sent me a tell afterwards inspected me asked if I would use then gave it to me. I think the majority of the server is down to help.

Mind you we have all run into the types of people you mention, but my experiences in 2 months have been far and few between. During my 20's and 30's I had those ultra twinked out guys who had no problem soloing things invite me to group if I was lfg for 15-20 mins, let me loot things and still check in with me from time to time.

I'm now in my 50's and try to pay it forward when I can.

I think the most frustrating thing in game is legitimately dealing with some of the tunnel questers in EC, who will nickle and dime everything you try to sell. Dealing with a character named generic_trader or bank, put something up for sale that generally goes for 1k, theyll start haggling from 250, then get upset with you if you refuse to budge below 800. I'd rather just give to someone who would use then deal with it.

As I mentioned before most of the things you talk about happen to an extent, but in my experience they occur far and few between.

This post isn't to judge ALL the community, but Im new on server and a couple of my friends are new on server and what we have noticed during the time we spent playing on P1999 BLUE server..................

First of all a little bit about me:

I'm a young professional with my own business, I have beautiful girlfriend... I played EQ from 1999 to 2006 and I found out about P1999 a month and a half ago. I was very excited to get back into my all time favourite game... all the memories and fun I had in this game is just incredible. I was a casual player for about a year and a half and then after that I became an hardcore player... Raiding way to much... playing way to much.

My impression on P1999 since I joined:

Peoples seem to be bored as hell, they do same content over and over and over and over and over.... End up bein so bored they became a curse on the server because they are so bored the only thing that make you feel happy is collecting the pp and dropping rare gear for your alt that you will start for the 10th times since you joined P1999.

I been grouping quite a lot in all part of the game right now, and what I see is a bunch of selfish peoples, lot of trolls and way to much ego. What I mean by that... don't get me wrong I don't say everybody is like this, some exception are not... but for the most part.. It is the case I'm sorry.

Anyway what I mean by selfish? Level 60 coming to low level zone to farm a camp for his alt to camp that rare item to sell at the EC tunnel for some pixel pp money (( except if you sell pp for real money but then In that case I hope you get banned ))

What I mean by selfish? Grouping with bunch of twinks with 200k + gear rolling on any items cause they want more when there's a new player on the server in the group with barely any items. And that item is DEFINATLY an upgrade.

What I mean by selfish? There is barely ever any group doin NEED over GREED.
Most of the time its free for all and big fat ogre that can carry 20000 weigh usually loot most of the things and once the group is done or his inventory is full he gate sell and don't split anything. HOW CAN IT BE LIKE THIS? Everybody fought for the goodies why not share with everyone the pp you made and the gold ?

What I mean by troll and selfish..........

A group of twinks or a group of peoples claiming 2-3-4 camps and when someone come in zone and want to claim 1 camp they troll and insult and say we manage to clean all the camp so they are our................ WOW REALLY? How can you run a server with 1.2k peoples and you guys act like this? How disrespectful ! ! !

What I mean by trolls and EGO...................

level 26 rogue with a epic act like he knows everything about everything and insult you over something cause you try giving him advice on how to do something or try to help him?

'Im sorry but its not because you managed to clean kunark (( 14 years old content ))
that it makes you good or better or whatsoever. Drop that ego, and go help some newbee, go talk with them, go help them. Go buy some lowbie item and go give em to the new player. Take your 60 druid and go give free sow to all the newbee in all the starting zone.

Take one of your char and go give advices to the new player. Talk to your community, stop bein selfish greedy person trying to gather as many pp and item as possible. Having 2000 twinks with 3000 fungis won't make you feel better inside.

You bored? Go duel at the front of EC Tunnel and bet on who's gonna be the winner.

You bored? Create event that might be fun for the community and have prize to be awarded.

You bored? Make bunch of low levels with ur friend and try go raid befallen

You bored? GO OUT AND MEET YOUR FRIENDS... FAMILY........ FEED yOUR SPIRIT WITH SOMETHING POSITIVE. When you will come back to P1999 after that maybe you won't feel like trolling or insulting or holding lowbie from progressing by being a greedy ego power tripper...


Anyway, no harm was intended, just trying to start a topic on something that I feel is a very unpleasant experience for a lot of new players, and especially old players because on live server there were unwritten rules. Respect, play nice rules, and MANNERS.

We are all humans, and this server is a community, just as the society is. Have respect for each other, if you live in big city you have noticed how peoples not care for each other anymore.... well don't make your community the same please... because the reason I got into EQ and the reason I came back into EQ..... its all the memories and the fun that I had.. not with the game, but with the community.

Thank and I hope yall will understand and not be flaming.

I enjoyed the first part. How he had to let everyone know he was a young professional with a beautiful girlfriend.. So, everything he stats after must be actual fact and the rest of our community must be leeches on society without girlfriends/ or ugly girlfriend.

However, after you stated your credentials your true motives surfaced which is obviously pixel envy. Please people with a lot of PP and items just shower the newbies i.e me and THAT will make my experience classic..

I love how the only thing you remember from the post is my introduction so you can all know me a little bit better xD

Talking about me ''pixel envy'' hmmmmmmmmmm not sure if I am the one bein jealous or you are the one being jealous because so far the way you speak it seem like you care way to much about my life. ''Stating my credential'' Or..... maybe im just explainin who I am, and what I do O.o

I think you envy me more than I envy you for having virtual items in a game. I don't play this game for the items, items is just a bonus. I play this game to explore, meet and greet.
