You can TWO BOX on red while you play blue

[Fame]

Hey everyone, if ya have ever been curious about red, even in the least. I would just like to remind you that it is totally legal to play both at the same time. The best part of course being that you dramatically reduce the actual amount of "down time" during the time you have to play. Win/Win

See ya there

[Sirken]

confirmed true ^^

[Fame]

Thanks Sirken

multiply your pixels x2 and double that immersion folks

glorious

made me lol, dunno why

Good shish

[runlvlzero]

I do not multitask easily between two environments. So this is kind of a downer for me. Maybe if I played a wiz on blue, I could afk kill something once very 20 mins, would still be some kinda progress. But meh.

I could see playing two wizards on both boxes. Would work. Almost any other class... dunno.

[Fame]

Yeah, but on blue they have a lot of ec time too, trackers, people that just camp single spawns. Just an idea, quite a few of the new red players I've met are running trackers for guilds on blue.

sirken check pm

i know, im waiting for a final reply from another staff member, as soon as i get that i'll post in your thread. my apologies for the delay

[Jimjam]

As a point of curiosity it was possible to play two servers on one account on live.

The trick was to go to character select on one server, then begin logging in to a toon while logging in to character select on a second server on your second computer with the same account.

[Dalron]

I never played on a PVP server back in the day and thought no way would I like it at all. Then I tried it when Blue went down a little while ago - it's very fun and exciting! I would have never tried it if Blue hadn't gone down. So even if you think no way would you like it, like I thought, you should give it a try because you may end up loving it. Almost every aspect of the game changes. Just turn off global OOC when the few little boys clutter it up once in awhile, lol.

[Tecmos Deception]

Even I can't say anything negative in this red-thread-in-blue-forums thread.

Might even log on my pos wizard on red for long enough to get mad that I don't have c2 before I log back off.

[Raavak]

So I can be pk'd on Red, not fighting back, while in my Blue window? Of course the people on Red are above such things, right?

[big league chew]

you can also watch tv and smoke weed while you play

How are they to know?

I wouldn't get caught afk on red, just ask Kimm...

Also misleading title...you can't two box on red, but you can have 1 account logged in on each server ;)

[Raavak]

How are they to know?They don't strike/cast back.

But Red players wouldn't do this because they don't take cheap kills, right? What's the fun in that. Pvp is for the challenge.

But, but... the leaderboard, its extremely important to some cretins over there.

Ya I thought this meant I could 2-box red and now I'm bant.

THANKS OP FOR RUINING MY EVERQUEST CAREER :confused:

I thought about posting in a similar vein after logging onto red and seeing that the only 3 people who weren't anon/roleplay were level 1.

Endless recruitment posts in blue forums trying to bring over more people, presumably because they want more PvP, but the whole damn server is constantly anon. Maybe they know something I don't know, and hiding your level and class and location actually increases your chances of doing the one thing most all of the red players claim they live to do: PvP.

[Raavak]

cretins over there

[Orruar]

Does it really count as two boxing if you're on two different servers?

[Raavak]

no

[Swish]

No.

1 character logged in on red.
1 character logged in on blue.

They can't interact or help each other in any way etc.

[Fame]

Yeah sorry, title is kind of misleading. I threw in "two box" to be dramatic and get hits. No one forcing ya here, try red if ya want during your down time. ya never know. you just might have some fun.

Hmm not only are they anon but people will zone/plug/gate as soon as they see a threat enter the same zone they are in.

I was watching heartbrands stream the other night and he and like 3 other dudes spent 30 mins running around looking for people to fight. They zoned into SK and the 4 people that were there were all taken off within about 30 seconds one after another.

Pretty sure there is more player competition to be had training people in VP on blue. Kind of surprised the read griefers haven't formed a grief guild to just train people there 24/7 for kicks tbh.

anon

shit's classic guys, going anon on a pvp server isn't some R99 invention.

They are pussies.

[big league chew]

wah its so hard to check a zone wah

[timhutton]

I would not go anon if I actively wanted to PvP.

[idontbuff]

They're obviously COD players, they sit in a corner for that one guy to run past. Give them a break, its hardcore.

No one cares, no one has the other 100 times this thread has been started. We know we can play both, thanks but no thanks.

[Fame]

I tried red after reading about it when I only played blue. This might be a shocker, but the vast majority of the world are not sharing the exact thoughts you have in your head. Let that sink in.

[smooman]

main reasons why people don't play red is the same reason why I've stopped playing red.

The playerbase.

Mind you, I was only low level, never had a chance to be corpse camped or anything like that because I was near qeynos. The reason why I quit is because of the horrible folks in OOC.

'blah blah turn on filter'

it's painfully obvious when disgusting people are saying disgusting things even if the curse words are D*SFN!' and when someone makes a truly tasteless comment denigrating anything from women, to the Jewish people (which, by the way, is rampant on the server and the forums yet no one says anything? ) it just makes you sick to have to deal with it.

'well don't be stupid /ignore'

Congratulations, you have ignored 3/4 of the server, and the rest don't talk so now you are truly alone... might as well just play soloquest on another server.

I'm not specifically blaming you sirken, or any of the other guides.. you guys do a heroic job with the staff you have and the handicaps you're given.

But seriously, why would anyone want to leave a relatively mature and adult server like blue to play on red and see 'HURF DERF FUK DEM JEWZ DAY DID 9-11' 'HE PK'D ME HIM OBESE IRL' 'HAY HAVE YOU GUYZ SEEN (name of random movie or tv show) [spammed 100 times]' '(insert horrible, graphic, and disgusting discription of homosexual act here)' 'sexism, racism, sexism, racism'

TL : DR Red needs OOC moderated and people who do say the horrible things they do on there need to be temp/permabanned.

Just my 2cp after a week of playing on red.

[big league chew]

ooc SUX but you better not be hatin on lethal weapon and/or lethal weapon 2 and/or lethal weapon 3 and/or lethal weapon 4 and/or lethal weapon 5 and/or beverly hills cop

[Isic]

if ur too soft to even handle anonymous text on the internet, u probably shouldnt be on the internet.

u probably wouldnt have even made it past your first pvp death if some green writing makes u rage quit.

Are pvpers suppose to talk about rainbows and kittens or something? its far more competitive by nature than blue, reds are killing eachother not just drolvargs and orcs, its a smaller community where everyone has played with the same people for the last 2 years through all different types of server drama.

cry

You can taunt and provoke your opponents without using excessively vulgar language. The way you speak directly reflects your level of maturity and intelligence. It is pretty obvious who is a working professional and who is a young 20 year old kid living at home with no direction in their life.

We all know the world is an ugly place, it would be nice to do something we enjoy like EQ without having to look the ugliness.

[Swish]

I would not go anon if I actively wanted to PvP.

There's times where people take off the /anon tag and state it in ooc... you probably never logged in for more than 5 minutes to see it though.

[smooman]

now swish, don't get me wrong. There are some insanely awesome people on Red server, how they manage to stay there without going insane at the sheer level of immaturity I will never know.

For example:

Everyone in <serenity> has been nothing but amazing to me, even if they aren't full 60 in planar gear they go out of their way to help me out.

poopo dropped in out of no where, asked if I was an int caster, then gifted me with an advisor robe and ran off without any expectation of thanks.

Nizzar did something similar (i think his name was nizzar)

Tune listened to each and every one of my bard related questions patiently and gave me the best answer he possibly could.

Same with Bulletproofx, even when the questions weren't about his class and the wiki was down he took the time to talk theorycraft with me.

then there was a guy named dexa.. something (i forget) who actively went on /ooc to offer ports and his own money to help new players all free of charge.

How do i know all these folks by name? because out of a week of complete garbage on ooc (or silence having turned ooc off and being like the man on the moon) these people helped me. they were the exception to the rule, and if they weren't there the server would probably have even less new players.

again just my 2cp, but I don't want people to think I'm just dumping on the server without giving it good points.

Plus, those that are actually helpful to others deserve some recognition.
