Today there was 2 trains or maybe more i don't know i was to busy raising my /q skill, you trained inny at entrance,i say there were your trains but some of your members apologized and said it was not intentional, fine i believe it and i don't mind, most of us made it with /q anyway.
I'm just asking for no more trains [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

regarding the 30min call i was talking about today poh raid.

There was no contact, we ran up the ramp -> your guild made the call. How are you going to blame us for that? They didnt even try to make us roll for it or anything, that was your leadership's decision. Talk. To. THEM.

The trains today were the faults of both guilds. The very first one happened when we were out on the wall. We were buffing up and all the sudden one of your guild's mage pets (looked like falisaty's) went blazing past us at sow speed and feared with mobs tailing it. It ran down the wall to the corner, rounded up half a dozen mobs or so then dragged them all back (through our camp no less) and to you guys. By the time we realized the size of the train forming your guild was mostly /camped or /q'd, as there was about 7 of them even left in the zone, so don't even try to blame that shit on us since your guild obviously knew it was coming before we even did.

Then there was our acccidental train pulling inny through the ceiling, our bad. It raped the shit out of us and somehow agro'd you guys wherever you were too.

Both guilds recover from that, trans recovers and gets antsy then charges out towards the fountain/bottom of ramp and gets more than they can handle, wipe + train on us.

At this point both guilds are doing extensive corpse recovering and trains keep popping in and out all over the place wiping out the people who get back in from both guilds, then trans manages to get back to a safe spot while we continue to die to trains due to being in a bad spot. We move the people left and drag to a safer spot, get all set up, then trans heads out to the fountain. We recover fully and head to the fountain then up the ramp past transcendence's camp, your guild makes the 30 minute call. We kill inny then move back downstairs and start killing trash, later on transcendence starts wiping to trash and one of the last trannies alive (modus) runs the whole train over to us where we're killing trash and dies. We tear the train apart and continue on clearing the zone.

Thats a full account of all the trains that happened tonight from an IB member's perspective, take it as you will. Trains WILL happen in hate, its just how that zone is. Might as well get used to it now cause even if your guild is in the zone alone you can expect to get occasional trains.

i'd support that description of the chain of events actually

Hate is so totally fucked with agro and trains, shit will come out of no where and skull fuck you without notice. It's beautiful and the closest classic raid zone replication on this server (minus charming ability again, and ghasts fearing 100x more than they should).

Truth be told, we probably caused more trains than trannies did. But if you think that every single train that you can't account for must have been caused by the other guild, you're fooling yourself. In college I'd always bitch and complain about people leaving dishes in the sink. Then when I lived alone I'd think "how the hell did I get so many dishes in the sink?" not realizing that a lot of those dishes I had complained about were actually mine and I just forgot about them. That's how trains are. Especially when mere proximity to the ceiling or an adjacent house can cause some weird pathing and epic train, and no one even knows how.

tl:dr: Trains happen in hate, and they skullfuck you, and often it's your own fault and you just don't know it.

[Daydrem]

It was me.. I used my mind powers while Divinity was killing Naggy to cause trains in Hate. fear me.

Tiki, what are you doing back here? Weren't you banned a while ago?

Tiki got banned as part of the great Fugly Account Hack Cover Up scandal of 2010, but who says I actually ever left P99?

I've got screenies to prove this one! 8)

Welp, I'm at a crossroads here. I can't figure out whether most of you should feel privileged/happy that a pair of gauntlets on a fantasy emu server with a population of ~400 is like the biggest concern in your lives, or depressed that this pair of gauntlets essentially derives your happiness.

Either way its pretty hilarious, and even more hilarious when you take a step back and look at all the petty bickering. I can only hope and pray that imaginary loot doesn't dictate my life.

Let me give you a quote:

We're consumers. We are by-products of a lifestyle obsession. Murder, crime, poverty, these things don't concern me. What concerns me are celebrity magazines, television with 500 channels, some guy's name on my underwear. Rogaine, Viagra, Olestra, EQ emu loot.

Oh, and I think I read something about this being the top 3-5 item. Out of curiosity, could someone maybe list the top 5 or top 10 items? Thank ye.

[Danth]

Your quote is misplaced. This is an EQ-emu forum dedicated to a specific EQ-emu server. Of course folks discuss pertinent issues. What else are we supposed to talk about here, the state of the Russian economy?

Sort of an odd situation we have here. Months ago, people were permitted to keep loot off an encounter that wasn't working correctly....now apparently someone had loot removed when an encounter (Maestro) was apparently working fine.

To an outside observer such as myself, it has shades of 'I'm sick of these people bickering constantly!'

perhaps it was a bit misplaced, but you are right about what was intended. And I do realize why they are upset, and I would be as well, just not to the same degree I don't think. If this were an isolated incident it would be different, but it seems like there is always something they are complaining about.

I am not part of any of these guilds and I think I have met one or two people from each who were all nice. But it seems to me like Divinity is the only top(ish) guild that actually enjoys playing. IB and trans just seem to want the other guilds to lose. It's like they want everything just so the other 350 people can gawk at how uber they are. My point is, if you want to inflate your ego and impress your peers so much, then there are better ways to accomplish that than on a 400 person emu server on the internet.

I don't need to impress my peers on a 350 person emu server.

You should look up P50 on Evony, we were kind of a big deal.
