They are fine. It's a neat tidbit of information. They only derange you if you are in fact already crazy.

It's fun to watch and it makes the world feel a bit more connected. You know the very moment some rare item dropped, quest was completed or level was attained.

Unless someone was a total Reaver-dropping dork, I'd usually shoot em a "grats" in /tell

However... *gets Mr Potatohead angry eyes and talks with strained pursed lips* ... it would have been more fun leveling on a level playing field, like no grouping or PLing for 30 days. Solo only. Grouping to boost people or PL, like questing, isn't classic.

Zing, had to put that in there [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

But there are more yellow texts to be had!

Now that Badshaw has burnt out (or paid off? / threatened loss of DKP?) on getting 60 and Phatez from Reaver-Team has DKP-slaves boosting his Iksar Monk in bear pits of Perma, he should snag that yellow text in a matter of days.

I am just glad in the cold lands in the far north away from the hustle bustle someone is doing it all the natural way [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I thought they were pretty cool on Green launch. It was fun to see who could beat the crowd of 50+ people in Nektulos to get to level 2 first, etc, without all the PL's and saved quest items to turn in. Now that Kunark has launched, I don't really care at all, as none of it feels as genuine as it did a year ago.

Speaking of server firsts though, is anyone else a little surprised we're more than a month into Kunark and we still don't have a level 60 Iksar? Two of them were level 50 only four days after the Kunark launch.

lvl 60 iksar monk will happen very shortly. They were PL'd like crazy first 50 lvls. And going to say this. Server first 60 Paladin/Ranger/SK (ranger hasnt happened) clearly fills genuine as those are classes I can tell you aren't being PL'd their just long hours grinding away.

Who was the guy who said for years he got the first mith 2hs on red? Literally the biggest thing he accomplished in his life.

I was around since very start of green....

And never got a yellow text. Even though I heard rumor was one for first gnome to visit Erudin! So I went there super early!! And I was at the first Vox slaying!! Shootin it!

Anyhow... time passed... kunark came... and finally I got a yellow text!! For the greatest YT in all of Norrathian history! The ancient rod of annihilation!

I didn't just want "a yellow text", I wanted one that fit mine character too.

So things turned out ok in the end!

But for those seeking the YT, there is still hope in velious!! Make suggestions on what you want YT on when the time comes, and achieve dreams!!!
