Poll: Velious or Wipe?

[Tr4c3r]

For the people saying that the poor won't get rich and vice versa with a reset. I don't think that's what people who want a reset are after. We are after a experience without such a top heavy lame leveling experience.

This.

Those of you who think a wipe will get you a Manastone or Guise, no. You'll just see one guy camp it for 12 hours, hand off camp to a guildmate for 12 hours. And repeat. Until it's removed.

Neckbeards will neckbeard and casuals will casual.

But it would be worth it if we moved to an older client which has far more classic UI restrictions and less mod-ability.

I'm not saying I would quit if they made classic UI mandatory but I would probably play far less. I don't miss having to click each spell or item at the vendor to get its name or having to list item stats out when auctioning. I certainly don't miss having my entire screen consumed by a spell book while medding. I always felt like the newer UI retained the classic feel of the game without being overly restrictive or tedious. I've been on this server since 2009. The nostalgia is gone. I just like playing the game now.

I wouldn't want to be forced to use this UI [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] but I liked the idea of casters having to stare at the book, forced them to trust in their melees =p

I think there's a lot of that going around. Hard to be nostalgic with the level of twinking going on. If you want nostalgia and players leveling in rags, its red and red only.

Red is a nice change of pace. A little excitement to what is by now, boring as all hell. Camps are open, groups to be found at all levels from what I've experienced in my little time here. Not any griefing yet with about 2 days played time among a few chars. Looking hopeful.

Nothing says "you want to play here" like "we deleted everyone's chars a month ago", but we probably won't do that again. Spend your playtime on p1999 where your hard work... may be safe.

I think the words finally out Swish. But since we hijacked the thread already, sell me some CHA hand-me-downs brew.

Good point. How about a new server every 3 years or however long the actual timeline is to have a year of velious. Then, those characters get rolled into existing blue/red.

Maybe alternate starts of red/blue at half interval. Would give you a rolling TLP every year or year and 1/2.
