I swear to Marr, how are these the best arguments for no item loot and it still isn't in game?!? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Because the actual arguments took place last month and now the only ones talking are the ones begging for itemloot after it has been announced that the devs don't want to implement it. Look back ten pages or so for meaningful discussion. Then you'll find plenty of arguments against itemloot while all the arguments for it basically boil down to "PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT ITEMLOOT ARE SCARED BLUEBIE PUSSIES!"

Funny, I have looked back and haven't seen much "meaningful discussion" at all [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

and ironically enough, exactly 10 pages back from here there are several posts about item loot and all are for it, with little to no name calling.

Look harder.

exp loss already means I won't be on red, item loot is kind of another one of those things. I just don't play often enough to deal with that.

It's not like a pve death, the amount of exp lost is minimal.

heres the proof , casual guy , millions like him

xp loss = dead server BAD IDEA as dumb as dynamic

I dont like exp loss in Pvp, unless I'm griefing someone.

3 of 4 live PvP servers didn't have it, why is it in?

It gives pvp more risk, makes it more meaningful. It's a good idea, really, but if it's scaring away bluebies maybe we should do away with it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think xp loss should be limited to a level range (like +/- 5) so you aren't punished as much by griefers exploiting the dynamic level range system. It feel crappy to lose xp to someone like 15 levels above you.

XP loss on a 10x XP server isn't noticeable. XP loss with more normal XP would be annoying. PKers would get some high quality h8. Perhaps a buff effect that shielded from XP-loss only following a PK? It could fade from rez, or after an hour or so.
