Most old school players know that on original eq if you ran around acting like a dipshit like these seal team dudes you would be barred from joining any respectable guild.

I had a rl friend in afterlife and he was nothing like modern eq raiders.

Well, he played eq all fucking day but he wasn't an asshole as much.

Hey Argh [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hardcore raiders did have these attitudes back then, at least on Rallos Zek. The major difference back then was the less hardcore weren't challenging a lot of camps because these items weren't widely known about. Like others have said recharging was also not widely known.

The great equalizer on Rallos Zek was your actions affected your reputation. If you and by extension your guild were known as assholes people would not group with you, port you, transfer items for you. If your reputation was bad enough you became kill on sight. Reputation meant a lot since on a PvP server you were always vulnerable to being attacked if you trusted the wrong person.

Did that stop the assholes from playing? No. Assholes grouped with each other, ported each other, etc. It did, however, encourage everyone else to be better people to each other, and overall made for a better community. Could that work on green/teal? This early in the game? It would be a huge undertaking and a large dynamic shift from blue attitudes.

Like the past 10 years, neckbeards gonna neckbeard.

I knew plenty of people in KoEG, FoH, only knew one or two people in afterlife though, And everyone in my guild SoN. all were server "uber" guilds. It's like anywhere else. There is always a few ass hats, a few good guys, and the majority "generally decent" between the two.

Bunch of losers that need gms to hold their hand for loot...... I think the list is garbage and isnt classic... Actually nothing about p99 is classic and who cares about the cry babies who cant get loot on their own its pretty pathetic to implement a list in classic EverQuest. Quit crying and compete for your loot like a true gamer
