Probably not as many as you would think. A lot of these toxic players on R99 have somehow spawned elsewhere and gathered in this cesspool excuse for a PvP server. My advice is to not even log on, as it will not compare to the glory days of EQ Live as you remember.

Seems like most of the players I meet on this server are from SZ or TZ/VZ. Occasionally I meet a RZ player. But most of us came form one pvp server or another.

No trolling here, just stating opinion. The community here is clearly deranged and toxic. Even the staff shows it in their posts.


For everyone else that enjoyed/wanted to enjoy the event, I'm sorry that a minority ruined it for the rest of you. I have my breaking point just like anyone else, and tonight I reached that point. It makes it exceedingly difficult to give a single fuck about this community when I spend 3 hours live streaming a very complex and involved encounter only to get shit on from multiple sides - including the side I was trying to help out by bringing the server together. You can call this me being "too sensitive" or w/e you want to chalk it up to, but the bottom line is I put up with a lot of shit from this community, and still wanted to provide a fun experience for everyone to enjoy. After tonight, I'm finding it really hard to care.

Welcome man.

I played on VZ.

Words of advice; grow some thick skin, lvling up you'll encounter people who out gear you 50 to 1 and take pride in slewing noobs. Once you reach the 40+ bracket things slow down until your mid 50s then it's pvp central. By that time, you should be partially ready for it gear wise.

Naked photo's of trannies you say, try naked photo's of other guildmates lol that's what went around DB forums. LOL have you ever met Darkenbane, it was worse. Darkebane's greatest threat to raiding was Darkenbane, you'd be lucky to get them to meet in one place for over a minute without killing each other.

Literally within 3 mins of meeting for raid, half the guild needed rez's.

You weren't even in range of tB. And if you're calling tB a non PVP guild than lol, not even worth continuing this discussion.

I never once in over a year of playing was killed by anyone in Darkenbane, they were a joke. A bunch of non factor newb gankers. They were basically the Unrest County Police of RZ.

Then I moved to SZ and steamrolled Darkenbane some more, even with them exploiting the crap out of stuff to level up.

Literally the biggest bunch of clowns I've ever encountered in EQ and that includes here. It doesn't surprise me in the least to learn you were in Grayrage's merry band of idiots.

Darkenbane Company (DB)

Neutral guild famed for their temporary dominance of point boards and exploiting a Skyshrine quest to level. Also the origin of the phrase "clearly a Darkenbane victory," which means losing horribly and claiming that you came on top for some ridiculous reason.

Disbanded over a Bio Orb.

Before anyone regards anything Kergan says as important, let me give you some backstory here.

He's said many times on the boards PvP is all about gear. Yet the guy has been here about a year, has one of the best geared shaman's on the server. And in that time he hasn't killed a single player here. He only logged in for raid day on the largest zerg blue guild on the server.

http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h266/syft13/Aborted_zpsf462c4ba.jpg (http://s66.photobucket.com/user/syft13/media/Aborted_zpsf462c4ba.jpg.html)

That's his Toon. Ranked 905 which literally means he's worse than every player's 5th alt on this server. If this guy ever saw a Darkenbane on Rallos or Sullon it meant he was 10 secs away from getting titty fawked.

INC Fresh tears!

A Shaman is fully capable of killing players, the hell with rating you on killshots, I'm talking 1 DUDE ONE! A SINGLE KILL! So now were supposed to believe you have a buncha kills on a toon who's name you don't even have the balls to disclose?

Ya'll know Wetall never ran from a fight or turned down a duel in his life, even against the best geared Warrior on the server in my rags.

lol yaw. You made like a WWF villian in dat first duel, both down under 30%, we agree to not use HT/DISC beforehand cuz dragons bout to die, and then you mighty striked my brains clean out of my skull.

At least in our second duel in the nexus arena you didn't break the rules, you just cleverly found a workaround to them because I didn't work out the fine print of the terms of our duel haha

I was Yukawa and Grimkah on rz besides a lot of lowbie battle toons. I quit when augments came (ldon). I mostly pvped in faydwer. My role model was Jooke and also Titally and Winks. Gfay pre luclin is what I measure all other games against.

Also you can tell most people here are from EMU PVP servers or the light red colored non item loot PVP servers because of the lack of support for item loot. Unfortunately there aren't that many brave true-red pvp guys around here...people just like pixels too much.

I just found out about Project1999. I was on RZ back in Kunark-Velios days. I ganked in S Karana a lot. DE Necro named Vooradoor. Had so much fun I just created another DE Necro named Voorador.

Oh the good times I'm looking forward to having... :)

There were deleveled rogues early on because you kept full skills when you deleveled, so you could be a level 10 rogue with 200 backstab skill, and it was insane 1 hit kill left and right, so at that point no one needed epics if they were even released yet.

Sometime in luclin era people got bored and had surplus good gear and made epic twinks, it took a while but by pop there were a lot of them. Then ldon came out with augments effectively ending item loot so everyone that was cool sold all of their plat on EGI, and then the servers merged and the rest of the people clinging to the game quit too.

Fungi twinks were pretty hard to find for me, but there were a lot of ikky regen twinks and that was really the main thing I went after. FBSS was consolation prize.

12-16-2014, 11:28 PM
ye once pop came out FoB became the low level pvp battle ground. sometimes clicking on that book meant instant death. i have better memory of people back then because i played a little more. people like greenfairy, i will probably never forget. fuckin crazy times but i finally quit around ldon. fungi twinks were very rare. thats why i laugh when people talk about twinking killing lowbies is classic. twinks back then had a mith 2 hander or some shit. nothing like you see on here.

Lots of fun. Crying like a baby for a P99 rallos zek item loot server is the main reason I come to the forums. I am afraid of the eventually making a teams server and having item loot there, because I feel hardcoded teams are a recipe for failure, but all of the blue emu guys from R99 that only care about pixels will take that as a sign that item loot is bad.

If this happened the server would be fun, however I believe that the population would dwindle due to the fear of losing items

Gustoo

The max level 60 characters who only log in to raid with 20+ do not contribute to server health or community anyways at least not to the population of startup players who would easily be hooked on the game if there was a ton of action beginning at level 1.

Mad players would be guys with lots of valuable droppables who don't want to lose it....they can probably adapt like everyone else.

I think we would gain as many players as we lose, probably more. Game becomes dynamic and exciting rather than stagnant and boring.

With item loot, there is a reason to engage in PVP combat rather than just avoid it, and then use it to disrupt raids at level 60 like the current game.

Bardalicious

Item loot brings about a dynamic that results in a community that polices itself.

Worked in '99. Why not now? Seems like the staff is afraid that players would quit over the loss of pixels, but the opposite is true. We'd bring back an era where players would care about their reputation enough that they wouldn't endanger their pixels just to act like goofs on the forums / in game.

Gustoo
12-17-2014, 04:02 AM
^ yup. Kills matter and safe groups with trusty members matter on item loot. Guys won't just group with a random known retard because he is the only DPS class in the area and he seems friendly at that moment, because he puts their group in significant item loss jeopardy.

Friends are friendlier, enemies are more scary. Its better from every point of view besides the max level 60 point of view who wants to AFK while medding and come back without item loss.

There are a lot of risks that come with item loot and crazy ragequitters are just one of them. Maybe guilds would hesitate to treat their members like garbage in the face of these risks.

Lots of benefits.

Wait. You mean currently there is no item loot? Damn. downloaded and installed EQ and created a character to try to relive the old RZ days. I'm only at lvl 3 now. lol.

But I was under the impression that there was item loot.

Not even gonna waste my time playing anymore if this isn't the case. I'm tired of how carebearish MMORPGs have gotten.

Yeah unfortunately a lot of players here are late comer guys who mostly care about pixel stockpiling or vz/tz guys who are afraid of risk taking in pvp.

It really doesn't make sense since blue99 has all the pixels you can count, no reason not to make the pvp server the real deal.

You will find that no one really bothers to hunt down twink pks because there is no reason to bother. Pvp mainly happens to high 50s groups and to grief raids.

Stick around and help me beg for item loot. Its a good server just partly carebear.

Sadly so. No item loot here. And try as I might I just can't seriously get into playing here without it. There's no risk vs. reward in PvP here unless you're fighting for a raid target.

RZ 1999- till just before server merger. lvl 15 necro Darkspirit snare and fear scourge of qeynos hills along with akalakamelee as dps. lvl 30 barb war Bloodspiller scourge of oasis. i do agree that item loot should be brought to red you would end up seeing the true pvpr's and those that will run and plugg more so than they do now to avoid yt and i dont remember who the idiot was that said RZ had a leaderboard but that is false info unless it was after merger. your leader board on rz was what you put in your inspect screen. i say any old school RZ or SZ players come play you will have fun even without item loot nothing like ganking an idiot with over 300pp on them and being able to thank them for giving you pp to buy something you needed.
