You mean kinda like I am doing right now? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

What are you trying to get at here? It's not like I told Daybreak their server sucks and that they should change it. I haven't told anyone else that they shouldn't enjoy themselves on Agnarr. I haven't told anyone not to spend all the RL cash they possibly can on Kronos if that's how they get their rocks off. I simply stated what I think about Agnarr and why I don't like it as much as I like my other options.

You're the one posting because you can't seem to handle another person having fun a different way than you do.

How many of you guys would go play a friendly, casual round of golf with 3 of your pals, and then when one guy insists on playing off the women's tee and talking about how he's shooting a few strokes better than everyone else... how many of you would not make fun of that stupid fucker mercilessly for the rest of his life?

That's what Agnarr is imo [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Golf is PvP.

Project 1999 is also pay to win, you were a part of it. Every MMO is pay to win to some extent unless all items are no drop.

If a "friendly" and "casual" game of golf with "pals" is PVP, then everything is, including EQ. If it isn't, then you have no point.

P1999 is NOT pay to win because you get yourself fucking banned if you buy via RMT.

And saying that everything is p2w because if you don't at least spend some money/time/effort on things, then you won't have a computer to play on or time to type in your password on the login screen or whatever. But that's pretty asinine.


If paying real money for a quadra-tink bag, when actual tink bags are out of reach for plat ingame for all except the .1%... if buying kronos with real money and using them as currency instead of farming plat or farming items directly... if that shit isn't pay two win... then what the hell do you guys think pay to win is? Literally paying money to be awarded a 1st place ribbon via mail and the server being closed down because one person bought victory?

i remember seeing some thread of yours about "coming clean" about something (didn't read, obviously) that was like 10000 words linked recently. just letting u know u have no cred here and should really roll a new forum account to compartmentalize ur past embarrassments. until u put it behind u ur still that person.

free advice u don't have to take.

Golf is PvP because it is a sport you play against other people whether or not you are playing casually or professionally.

I said EQ is pay to win because whether you are buying Krono or plat on a 3rd party website you still buy the same crap with it in game. You are saying RMT is bannable as a person who was caught selling. Most of the people participating in RMT are buyers and most of them are not caught. There are only a few big sellers and they keep selling until they eventually get caught. The buyers are the players you would say are paying to win.

Good post. Sadly the shelf life on these TLPs doesn't really make the grind worthwhile anyway...bought bags or not, if Daybreak's next creation is "Agnarr with a twist" you know over half the pop is going onto the next one.... onto the next one...
What does shelf life matter? EQ is about the journey.

I won't be able to play even 5 weeks from now because im starting grad school, doesn't stop me enjoying experiencing """classic""" progression on my ranger.

I do like the fact that people keep crying about pay to win on server that

a.) is not PVP
b.) has instanced raiding

Please do enlighten me how does it affect your gameplay that someone pays for clarity potions or similar on PVE server?

It's viable to not pay to win. I commend those who choose that route.

I'd probably push him into the nearest water hazard too.
