I logistically run and manage the server and am one of the programmers, so if anyones settin up the shit to run a concurrent server, it would be me.

GM-Secrets created something to prevent you from logging in if MQ2 was running.

Said something about the staff not willing to do it here because of the legality of it or something though. I don't know the full scoop.

I'm aware of what you are referring to, and Secrets didn't create it. Its also due to the fact that she went against my advice and implemented it in several other servers that it is no longer effective due to players simply logging in with a debugger and fixing it. It would have been very effective as a bomb, exactly how SoD used it. Now it's useless.

So really.. What ruleset would most players prefer? Myself I prefer Rallos... But sullon with all teams having all classes would be prety cool as well...

Well, I'm not a huge fan of item loot personally - coin loot was my preference. I just didn't have the time to go after replacement items nor did I really want to just run and start bagging gear.

Because half the people you kill, will have bagged all the good stuff anyway.

Coin loot - well, not much you can do with the coins.

Team PVP - had it's ups and downs on Vallon Zek - one of the reasons I left Vallon and went to Cazic-Thule was because... well, to raid, they started playing it like a blue server - it was no longer team vs. team, it was teams of Dark and Light banded together to smack people down they just didn't care for - basically anyone not in certain guilds.

It turned to a guild vs. guild kinda thing - which was ok, but the dynamic of not being able to attack people on your own team in this situation would get downright annoying, with some Dark Elf cleric healing the heck out of the Gnome you were trying to take down - that just wasn't cool...

If you're gonna do anything, do it right. Rallos Zek ruleset is the only way to go. It in and of itself was based upon the grandaddy of all graphical MMOs: Meridian 59. Almost everyone from the Rallos Zek beta test was a Meridian 59 veteran.

Not being able to kill darkies on my own team was always a thing that would haunt me on TZ. Rallos/ 8 lvl range would be a cool deal. When everyone started X-teaming, I'd have to rely on friends to drop the darkies as I sat there watching a lot of the time after either killing the lighty teams, or chasing them off.

Any rule set has its benefits/ downfalls. For purely PvP purposes, I'd go with a rallos/ 8 lvl range though if it were to happen. Item loot/ no doesn't matter so much. I only made hotkeys to bag the important shit usually. The whole system becomes obsolete in one way or another once Velious becomes active and people start getting a lot of quested/ high end no drop gear.

Yeah I agree with the Team thing.. Its why I left Tallon Zek.. Hardcoded teams.. Maybe Have Hardcoded Teams.. But if you are in a guild that X teams.. you get coded red and can group/heal with anyone that is red...
