This is one reason I don't group often. I go AFK all the time. If it's not bathroom it's phone or I'm cooking something or I have to go put the laundry in the dryer or something.

I actually like not having to dedicate time to a game, being able to leave the keyboard when I want.

I wasn't around for Green's start but I can imagine it was nearly impossible to find open camps. It was probably a lot like very early live in 1999 where you had to wait in line to get in an orc hill group in gfay?

That’s the truth. So many unemployed neck beards lurking these forums just eating up content and crying for more, more, MOAR. Green isn’t even an old server, and these noobs want another one already… lol. Rogean probably still recovering from launching Green 1.0.

Years pals. Get used to it. That’s how long volunteer side hobby shit takes to get done when you aren’t an unemployed neck beard.

I hope they go with Red 2.0 first though, just to make the Green tears flow.

Green 1.0 is done. Vindi was dead within hours of velious releasing, the sleeper is awake and there is one, zerg guild dominating the server's raid mobs. She's done. We're ready for 2.0.

Except, the staff still has lots of RMT to do, so we've got another year to go.

Pvp sucks, what a ginormous waste of time and money creating Red 2.0. Keep fighting the fight though, all 50 of you.

Here's a wishlist:
* Don't cater to just the hardcore. Remove these limited time overpowered items, that 99,9 % don't have any chance of ever getting, or leave them be, so everyone has an equal chance of getting them throughout the servers lifetime, as they're clearly not too overpowered for just the few select who obtain them.

* Implement some sort of Bazaar-AFK-trading-option in the EC Tunnel, so that e.g. EU time zone players don't have to spend weeks in between seeing select common items.

That would cater to the majority instead of just a select few, which is really what we all should be looking for.

Catering to the majority is what keeps a game and server alive in the long run, not the other way around. And no, it has absolutely zero to do with "socialism", you'll have to do better than that.

Uses the words “catering to the majority” while requesting the staff set up an AFK bazaar/auction house to make buying and selling easier for the minority (EU players). Lol

Anyway here’s some advice: most people don’t spend their time buying and selling in the EC tunnel if they don’t want to. You can post on the forums and in discord that you have stuff to buy or sell and usually find people to do a transaction with.

The main point of the entire thread being the time-limited items, though.

But making it less of a pain for non-US time-zone players, especially newer ones, to do some early trading would help them stick around more often. That was the point of that remark, feel free to suggest other things that could help the P99 servers in a healthy direction for all of us.

Green 2.0 is like red 2.0, won't happen. Hope that helps.
Edit: remember discord server luls, still waiting 10 years later.
