WOOOOO Item loot! Awesome! Nothing makes a game seem more real. The server will smell of fear.

not sure how to ask this without sounding like an ass but i mean no disrespect.

is this teams server for the staff members or the hundreds of players wanting teams?

the reason i ask is that noone has suggested item loot yet it sounds like its already confirmed in the name of science? i hope the players opinions drive the ruleset of this server more than a handful of people who may not even play on it. we are greatful for staff but its different when you have nothing to lose/gain on it.

again its not meant to sound ungreatful or w/e. its just, im not getting a good vibe from all this. and no need to tell me to play it or shut up, i already realize this.

thank you for the disclaimer [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

honestly, its for both, just like the entire project. at the end of the day, Nilbog is the project founder, and together with Rogean they are the project managers. if they want to try something to experience it first hand, then they have a right to do so. if players dont want to play on a server because of how the staff set it up, then thats the players' choice and the staff will have to deal with the consequences of their actions.

Also, let me say some of the staff have indeed seen the positives and negatives of item loot, and i feel that we as a staff can implement a system that will be different from live insofar as it will still be fun, but may not be as rageinducingflipthetableoverandquitEQforever, as some people may remember it. we feel we can come up with a very entertaing, and very rewarding system, while minimizing a lot of the negative stigma attached to it. and so, in the name of science, it will be done.

Samwise... Nilbog is more hardcore than you. And he doesn't care if you play or not. The previously stated goal was to retain population. Item loot is known to harm retention. Obviously, they're waving their hands in the air.

well!

thats why i asked for the community to start brain storming ideas of custom item loot systems, and said that we can do anything you can imagine, and gave examples.

think outside the box.

we all know live style item loot is bad for pop, so lets think of a way to do it thats good for the pop! because at the end of the day it can be a lot of fun!
