This is why Teams99/R99 merge will never work

[Aenor]

Nilly has harvested so many blooming onions they can buy real players with pixel showers. Now imagine if Teams99 launches and staff is eager to get to the merge so they don't have to maintain three separate patches. Let's say 6 months classic, 6 months Kunark and 6 months Velious before merge. Then you dump RMT99's illegit pixels onto this infant server and that proves what exactly?

This is why I'm seriously concerned staff are going to reconsider the logistics and decide Teams99 is more trouble than it's worth. Because if you don't give Teams99 2-3 years to stand on its own before you dump illegit pixels on it, it's the equivalent of shutting down a server/wiping legit pixels.

there is no teams 99

it was merely mentioned

[Aenor]

Sirken please ban this fuck for misrepresenting staff communication. Teams99 was announced during a live developer chat streamed on twitch. I saw it on twitch, it must be true.

Relax. Tainted pixels are a minor thing in this community. It's like the least worst offense you can imagine.

Everyone will get a chance at some manastones and Rubicite. And easy jboots camps.

if they want to transfer let them do it naked.

otherwise start over. i'd say the overall gains would more than negate the losses, and anyone worried so much about their pixels on a emu box needs to do something else. find a nice hobby like crochet or something.

course if it had started as teams like a lot of us argued...ah well. better late than never.

[Aenor]

otherwise start over.

That's exactly the point of Teams99. Keep illegit pixels on RMT99 and let Teams99 stand on its own.

yeah but running 3 boxes? with no adsense? we'd have to be some donating fools lol

[Pudge]

When the merge happens, toons from R99 should only transfer with no-drops, and perhaps their manastones. Any red99 toons that want to keep the rest of their pixels can be transfered over to Blue, where they belong.

Well, Nizzar says Nilly donated $500 per month. Of course, we all have a pretty good idea of where that money came from if true. I honestly don't doubt it. But no additional bandwidth will be needed for a new server because R99 will be a ghost town when Teams launches except once a week on raid day. And launching teams will without a doubt increase donations. If the staff wants to eliminate RMT, make all items no drop.

[Aenor]

Nilbog's idea for item loot would also curtail about 90% of RMT. That would also help maintain the population on R99 because only the true hardcore would play on teams.

you are very immersed for someone new

first rule of red99 is shit takes a year + to happen. They are not releasing a new server just cause you want one, we didn't get our first pvp patch till 5 months after release

they MENTIONED they were THINKING about a new server and you are crying release date. Go outside, you aren't getting a new server for a long time even if they make one, if you think red99 is tainted, it is.

So level up, join the resistance and fight you big fat pussy and stop crying. We don't need another heartbrand on these boards.
