Not to mention Shadowknights and Necromancers, because that would imply knowledge of the PvP game, and that is something you most assuredly do not own. The best and most players chose the evil team because the best (and most) players choose the team allowing them the most power. Not because they wanted to be different and awesome. Like... what are you even trying to say?

To be fair, I implied that I wasn't sure about what I was saying (I never claimed to play on SZ; I never played on a Live pvp server). This is the only thing I was even remotely wrong about. Sorry.

SZ evil team did well because pvp gamers seem to enjoy RPing evil more than good. imo

PvP gamers enjoy winning and powergaming; being the best is the end-all and be-all of what most of us do. You cannot say that there were not 'evil' players on Neutral and Good... RPing is not a major factor for players of PvP.

It is very easy to see that Evil won because of the class/race balance, and nothing more. If you believe otherwise, you are ignoring a preponderance of evidence for your own ill-considered opinion.

edit: added "ill-considered" due to the revelation that you work for Lazortag.

the fact that i see "teams" being argued shows how stupid the above conversation is.. those reading it just remember you're wasting precious time in your life. This server will never be changed to teams, move along idiots.

I was unaware that you were a developer on the team. Congratulations on your promotion from drop-out excusemonger!

Common sense. They will barely move the exp rate and you expect them to change the entire dynamic of the server less than 6 weeks in?

Excuse me while I...

I don't expect them to do anything. I would hope that they are open to any and all legitimate options to save the server that we care for.

That's one difference between us, perhaps? You expect the developers to do or not do things and I simply post my humble opinions and hope for the best.

Well then for gods sakes, stop posting your opinions and keep them to yourself. No one cares (except maybe Lazortag, but he's a confirmed helmet wearing retard irl).

I've always been a huge proponent of teams. Like I said in an earlier post, doing it now would be a mistake. Teams aren't going to draw people back, imho...and would screw up the current guild makeup.

Changing the xp rate to a modest boost at low end (1-20) and a small boost afterward would be the better solution.

Most people probably aren't aware that guard assist exists now, allowing relatively safe banking and so forth.

The FoH R99 thread has been overrun by idiots, also. I'm not a member or I'd post there, but claiming the server is dead when it still has more regular players than any of the other emu boxes did is kinda sad. The population still exceeds 200 regularly...far from dead.

We just need to bring some people back.
