Quitting TMO

[Zeelot]

I've never met you Zeelot, and I have never posted on RnF (I don't think), but as an active player on P99, I completely echo those sentiments.


Sad to hear stuff like this went on back then, and it saddens me more knowing that it still happens presently.

This post isn't aimed to bash staff or the people who run the server, but merely a reflection of how things that are clearly wrong and unjust are still allowed.



Fingerz <Rampage>

I didnt mean to ignore you by the way Fingerz. Thanks for adding a very on point and relevant perspective on the state of the server. It is very unfortunate how certain things have been handled to date. A little bit of transparency and legitimacy could go a long way, especially considering they recently received some official recognition for this server. They should definitely stop targeting accounts for personal reasons and adhere to a standard set of rules that are publicly available.

[Slayde]

Right now a few of us have been playing GTA V if anyone wants to join in on some heists feel free. I will give an update when our site is back.

Let me know about gta 5 brew. You guys still do planetside?

[Nirgon]

India!!! <3

hey papa Z

come 2 red

[T7g]

Let me know about gta 5 brew. You guys still do planetside?

Not for a while on Planetside- and yeah, always lookin' for good heisters!

[Yibz]

hey papa Z

come 2 red

If you do, please let me know!

Btw, good to see you guys again :)

[Zeelot]

I seriously considered it before Nirgon! But it wont happen unless I am 100% that server staff will not ban me as soon as I start playing. The fact that they banned one of my accounts for no valid reason aside from a fabricated RMT claim leaves a very bad taste. I could put a few months grinding and gearing and then get banned for something that is made up by Staff for whatever grudge they hold against me.

/Salute

[Lune]

he did his best to bow out and leave this shitfest alone

Bow out huh? I don't feel your language is adequately capturing the spirit of Zeelot's departure.

He disbanded the guild and took off, posting some cringeworthy Atlas-Shrugged "You need me more than I need you" nonsense. And then the server prospered more than it ever had before.

Embarrassing

[Zeelot]

Funny you say that considering Atlas shrugged is the literary work that I hate the most!

I left because they changed the raid scene and banned a rediculous amount of innocent characters based on Froovy and Internode's actions. Get it right son.

[Ambrotos]

I thought they banned you for threatening to go to your law teacher to set up a possible lawsuit or some crap on the forums. Didn't think they banned you in game over anything.

I thought Uuaellen was some german dude. How do you deduce Deru was him? Trust me, not defending him. Just curious.

[Cecily]

I've been told Derubael was someone else who made way more sense.

[Samoht]

He was more than just Gotrocks?

[Lune]

He was more than just Gotrocks?

How could he be anyone else? (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=168412&highlight=derubael+gotrocks). I'm a genius, frankly. Evidence of that caliber just doesn't lie.

[Ambrotos]

As soon as he made that post I knew people would figure out who he was and told him he done goofed. Not like he was master at hiding who he was since he was getting grouped/power leveled by Kinx in city of myst before becoming "gm".

[Samoht]

Both are awesome, helpful members of the community.

Well, you were wrong about one thing. So could possibly be more.

[Zeelot]

Nah Ambrotos , see below for the reason I got banned! Or at least what the staff said.

This is their response to my petition :


Account is banned for participating in RMT.

Perspective: Moneyz
Associate: Teleportation
Server: Live
Zone: freportn
Date: 2013-08-19 02:10:12
Gave
2500000 Platinum
Received



Basically, at some point in 2013 when I bought a prenerf fungi staff from this guy that I gave to Tortue, which anyone who was TMO at the time would remember. They isolated the reimbursement and ignored the previous trade minutes before where I received the item. And they decided to ban my account for it. Wtg p99 staff, keepin it real.

I'd honestly rather be banned than see FE get any of TMO's former guildbank.

Teleportation is Nordenwatch from The A-Team. He happened to RMT off the server. His prenerf fungi staff essentially came from platlord. Stabbyjoe stole it from platlord and traded it to Nordenwatch (Teleportation) for Mythoxxus since Nordenwatch owned that troll bard at the time.

[Zeelot]

Interesting. Still shouldn't have anything to do with me buying it for plat. At worst they should track down the item and get rid of it rather than ban someone who bought it legit.

[quido]

Zee I got caught in some RMT bullshit too - it was on me to prove that my transactions were legitimate despite the fact they could just look up that all the trades were balanced.

Some logs from the era would probably work to get you unbanned.

[Zeelot]

I deleted my files ages ago unfortunately. It would be helpful if they would check it.

[Clark]

Uuaellen was Euro, and I'd almost bet my savings account he wasn't Derubael. Used to game with him back in the day, and none of the ways Derubael spoke were comparable.

Also go kill yourself irl Zeelot. Nobody gives two shits about your stuff being banned you prickheaded scrub.

[quido]

Jesus u are a damn moran Clark

Zeelot is a golden god and anyone who says otherwise is a bitch made fool. He is the most effective leader I ever encountered on blue and was merely dealt a sour hand by the staff. I understand they wanted their casual action, but it really was kind of bunk to change the status quo like that after so much time. I guess it was good though because it made blue about as lame as it could possibly be and drove a good number of the non-retards to red. Zeelot's domination on this server is unparalleled, and a lot of good people owe a lot to him.

A+ dude, would play with again

[Clark]

Jeremy has me favorited on his google chrome and refreshes every 10minutes waiting to respond to my posts. Screw off pal. :)

Yo Faz! Good to see you mon'ami. Welcome to the club.

I have had a petition in since February 3rd that I've bumped quite a bit over the months but never even got an answer lol. They are hiding something fishy or maybe they just don't want us around. I'm not sure which it is yet.

[Cecily]

So you never got the personal phone number / skype contact / go out to dinner with staff treatment?

Thanks Tiggles.

I just talked with Darkdeath and he's in the same boat, banned by Derubael for RMT. I think I'm seeing a pattern here.

We will have to get him taken care of too. He tells me he already has a petition in also.

Remember when I brought all of this shit up?

No one would listen to me then.

[Systolic]

I guess I will chime in since people are talking about me!

I'm glad as well that I'm not playing on p99 for many reasons and especially considering they make up reasons to ban characters for things that never happened. I only found out about it when I tried to drop by and say hi about 6 months ago, and apparently I was banned for "RMT" that occurred in 2013 before I even disbanded TMO. Supposedly happened in the time period while we were successful and I was still actively leading, yet I was banned 2 yrs later while inactive in 2015 lol.

If I did want to come back Fount I do still have about 10 lvl 60s including my 2nd SK who is fully geared with the prenerf fungi staff. :D Though maybe I shouldn't be saying this because some staff may decide to ban those chars to prevent me from ever coming by lol.

Funny how much the 'big wigs' have in common with the little guys who piss the wrong people off on this server.

[Alarti0001]

Zee I got caught in some RMT bullshit too - it was on me to prove that my transactions were legitimate despite the fact they could just look up that all the trades were balanced.

This another reason you should have been deguilded; making threats all the time when you don't contribute anything except for a troll-like dipshit attitude. Spending all your time on red, and making threats against active members. Go kill yourself irl seriously man you're a pathetic excuse for a man.

I would like to play EQ again but this is what the GMs told me, "the account was banned on 11-19-2014, 08:51 AM, in an RMT ban, by derubael."

I have never RMT'd. I have all the TMO loot I was listed as holding on the DKP still on my account. I run a business to make money. I play video games for fun & the competition of trying to be the best.

Not arguing. My heart longs for our guild / culture before the staff and reform fucked it up. I backed Zagum and he ghosted immediately after merge. After that, it's just been a slow process of watching my guild's essence erode away due to great ideas from the FE savages who were obviously the go to guys for successful guild management. Lol.. it has been interesting.

Ah, karma's a bitch, eh? I remember feeling similar about my old guild before TMO ran them off.

Surviving QF and yeah I do man. I see your still kicking it in RNF. Heard your playing more on Red now how is that going? Still in the hobby business?


Btw Wadeawen TMO was a guild started way before P99 and there were and still are alot of great people who wore/wear that tag. I am not referring to just in P99 also on Fennin Ro and a few other games. Its like anywhere else that you gather alot of people together you get a wide range of personalities. Maybe a few fit your cookie cutter uneducated stereo type that is limited by a small imagination and what you think a raider in a game like this is or should be. But for the most part there were some amazing people that hung together and enjoyed accomplishing things in a game that you yourself play or played and obviously take entirely too seriously if you're that upset. Yes they may have caused butt hurt people like you to feel the need to lash out in general but is that their fault or yours for being unable or unwilling to do what you had to do to compete or enjoy the game? Obviously someone took a major shit in your cornflakes at some point then rubbed your nose in it repeatedly. Wipe your nose off and get over it. You are bringing up shit that happened 2 years or more ago and crying foul then accusing someone else of getting too into the game.


I am pretty sure I misspelled your name if so I apologize I didn't feel it was important enough to scroll back to check the spelling. Oh and any typos, sentence fragments, run on sentences, or other grammatical errors are there just to piss you off. Have a nice day.


Back to the feel good vibe this thread was putting off for a couple minutes there. I miss all the TMO of Fennin and P99(pre dissolution and reformation but that includes a lot that stayed and stuck it out) you guys were great. Yes that includes you QF I cannot say it wasnt an emotional ride in TMO with our interaction sometimes but hey it never got boring and you did show you cared about the guild.

[Seltius]

Dude, so true but soon Zee will have the old website back up. We can all keep in touch going forward & discuss the future there. He also setup a new vent server if you want to chat, hit him up for it.

Sweet man will definitely do that. I badgered him for a while the other night when he logged in for a short period. Miss you guys all of you. I am rooting for you on getting your accounts unbanned. I really hope they will review the bans and see that there may have been a different reason you were targeted.

Anyway I think I have pissed on enough shoes in here tonight going to go enjoy the rest of the evening. Thinking I'll watch Guardians of the Galaxy while eating popcorn and playing P99.

Aww, are you sad you don't have this sort of camaraderie in your life?

I understand this is rants and flames, and you're more than welcome to voice your opinion.

In my opinion though, you sound a bit butt-hurt that our friendships not only transcend guild boundaries- but also time, circumstance, and former inter-personal problems.

I'd call that true friendship- and I feel sorry your life seems to lack that.

Naw, been rollin' hard in GTAV for PC with some good friends and been having a lot of fun.

If I wanted to grill outside with my family- I'd have one.

I think the thing you don't understand is...

"TMO" isn't just a guild on p99. It was a guild on "Fennin Ro" before that. It's been a guild in Planetside 1, Planetside 2, Path of Exile, Robocraft, Darkfall, etc, etc.

You will never destroy TMO, even if we do. As was seen. TMO is an idea.

Good luck getting rid of 15 years of history with some of the most stand up people I've ever met.

Very cool grats man on the house. I meant more along the lines of if you were still working there but I know how people are around here and didn't want to get to detailed lol.

No fair Loly I want to be the guy on the right. I will arm wrestle you for it!

Its ok they dont understand.

I know of several communities from Fennin Ro that have survived time and game boundaries. Its all about the friendship games like this and the communities are a chance to skip geographical boundaries and remain friends and keep in touch. They were around before Facebook, etc. and will continue. Unfortunately it took this thread to act as a conduit to get everyone chatting again and updated on the latest but hey it started somewhere.

[DeathWalking]

In my opinion though, you sound a bit butt-hurt that our friendships not only transcend guild boundaries- but also time, circumstance, and former inter-personal problems.

When shit was most cut-throat, nobody even came close, and that's why these nyukkaz hate so hard. By cut-throat, I mean train wars in VP - the purest form of competition blue has seen yet. Train Wars are a better test of a guild's ability, organization, and execution than killing any Kunark mobs. You all couldn't hang and had to get the rules changed. Just hang your heads and remember that. :)

Well said- and it's not like we spent our entire lives playing the game during that period. We were simply better organized, more skilled- and these crocodile tears and haters are a testament to that.

Do you realize that... If the Zeelot era of TMO never happened- there would be none of these forced rotations?

We beat this server into fucking submission, and left when you had to change the rules to stop us.

[Lune]

had to change the rules to stop us.

The rules were changed because you guys were a cancer on the server, really. Sure, nobody else was really willing to go to quite the same extremes of neckbeardry and virginity in order to accomplish what you did.

It continues to be an aggravating realization among CSR staff that 10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content.

I was thinking to myself the other day and I came to ask myself.. Are we providing this server to give people the arena to compete to such bitter extremes that it has resorted to taking every absolute measure to be victorious, or are we here to provide a classic Everquest experience for everyone to enjoy?

A lot of you make fun of it in your own terms, but it really does come down to fighting over very old content.

Either way, we're tired of the constant bickering, the training, the ninja looting

Never forget you were basically a malignant tumor that Rogean had to excise, and the server population tripled following intensive chemotherapy.

So basically you guys are sitting around in this thread circlejerking each other saying, "lol, remember what a plague on this server we were? good times"

hay bro, do you even math?

Population was generally at it's highest at Kunark launch. At which I was first to level 51, 52, AND 53. (by the way !)

So if it tripled since we left... you've had 3k players on at once? Wait, no, that's obviously wrong. 2K? Nope, not that either...

The population when Rogean cured the server of you guys in Dec. 2013 was about 550-600 primetime, and it had been that way since IB RMT'd off the server in 2011 (even dropping as low as 450 in the interim) Over the next year it slowly climbed to 1200 and is now pushing 1600. So I guess it grew 2.7x if you really want to split hairs.

++ Well said Jer! A 'red' zone like how VP use to be made this server have multiple layers of strategy required to win that I have yet to see in any other game. It was unique, difficult & fun. The competition of TMO back then had many skilled players also, too many to name, that came up with ways to memory blur dragons on us, align their faction with dragons & come at us with trains regardless of how many times we changed our kill spot.

FTE killing trak, etc, was fun & competitive for a time but old VP required raids to be at a higher level of skill because you had to out smart your opponent & kill the dragon. Good times indeed, all of you that battled in VP during the trains know what I am rambling about! *Shout out to Stealin, Necrious, & the rest of the vp team-- too many to name :)

I hope the staff of P99 take Velious in a more competitive direction for the raid scene with all the content it has & perhaps add a zone with rules like how VP use to be! That would be a much more of an interesting release after waiting so long. They can always change it to a less competitive state once a guild kills the sleeper or after a set period of time. That way the casual/care bear players that are freaking out here won't lose hope about killing the primary Velious targets and quit because they can't recruit or organize themselves with allied guilds.

Raid Scene
It continues to be an aggravating realization among CSR staff that 10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content.

A lot of you make fun of it in your own terms, but it really does come down to fighting over very old content.

Either way, we're tired of the constant bickering, the training, the ninja looting, and all the other bullshit that's going on. So here's what we're going to do.

Starting today and then evaluated when Velious is released the CSR staff will be keeping track of how the raid guilds are treating eachother. If we do not see a significant improvement in the behavior of the raiding guilds and how they treat eachother, Velious will be released without raid content. To be clear, we want an enjoyable raid scene for everyone, not just one or two guilds. This means working together to figure out a compromise when racing for mobs, and working with smaller guilds to let them have a chance at mobs you don't absolutely need for gearing main characters.

Wow congratulations! You were one of the elite mega nerds who could handle P99 raiding when the 96 hour unclassic variance cockblocked 95% of the population from ever seeing a target.

You were truely something unique and special. I know you yearn for the days when regular plebs could not engage raid mobs in your vicinity. It is hard nowadays to stay relevant when so many casuals get to see raid content, esp after you put in all those hours in the past to remain pixel elite.

Its horrible how evenly matched some of the top tier guilds are at the time of a spawn. Damn raid rules.

Good thing you wont have to compete for too long tho right? Velious will allow you to hide back in your mega zerg and gobble up content at the leisurely pace you used to enjoy when no one could challenge your nerd crown.

Which raid scene/server was more miserable, the one with 600 people or the one with 1600? The only reason your type doesn't enjoy the current conditions is because you took pleasure in dominating the server. And I totally understand that, that's a fun thing to do if you're willing to put in the time. But it wasn't good for the server as a whole having everyone else locked out of the raid content. It wasn't even classic (not that I'm saying the solution was classic either). Back on live I was like 12 years old during Kunark and I was able to do Vox, Inny, Gore, VS, etc. I couldn't do those things here until I joined TMO, and only then it was because I was willing to batphone/poopsock.

What you guys are pining for is essentially this: Man, I really want to come back and kill the fuck out of this server with my sociopathic behavior.

[Uggme]

I find it exceedingly hilarious that an ex-TMO member is bringing all you nostalgic bastards back to reality. It was your cockblocking ways that was poisoning the server. It was so bad the staff HAD to do something about it so the server wouldn't die.

Now you people come in here talking about how things were "so great"... Christ. Zeelot is like the Wolf of Wall Street on here. Only his old pandering machinations mean literally nothing. His decent into nothingness is even more sad because he put so much stock into a 15yo game. Tragic

And that's assuming the RMT charges against him are false, which I highly doubt.

[quido]

The staff was fine with cockblocking ways (shit's classic) until it took them 5 years to push out Velious.

[Uggme]

Twas your own actions that brought this on, Jeremy. You can't blame the staff, our benefactors, for your own guilds downfall.

If TMO was so great why couldn't they survive the changes? The answer is twofold:

1.) Pride and greed - who wants to admit they were wrong and have some of their toys taken away? Nobody, really. So your leader stomped his feet, threw a temper tantrum, and shouted "I'm leaving and taking my ball with me! Come on, guys!" How childish. Which brings me to my second reason...

2.) Power Thirst - like some kind of retarded Lord of the Flies TMO actually believed they were somehow better and more deserving then anyone else. When asked to play nice they spat in everyone's face. Times were changing and they refused to budge. So sure of their superiority, they defied everyone. By the time the staff had to flex thieir muscles the jig was up for TMO. How easy it was for them (the staff) to break the "strongest" guild on the server after showing them how powerless they really were.

Let's face it. You didn't persevere. You folded.

[quido]

Nobody worth a shit wanted to play under the new ghetto rules with a bunch of entitled worthless maggots.

[Detoxx]

The 1000+ peak time player growth is evidence contrary to your sentiment. Or are all 1600 people online in the evenings worthless pieces of shit / maggots?

How much of a jerk are ya, bud? Shall we find out?

[Uggme]

Key words. The staff, not any other guild!

Hmm, every other guild made adjustments and still raid. I'm assuming they have fun doing it too. TMO was just too proud (or too stupid) to change. Plus yall were big crybabies about it. Thats your own fault... Not the staff's.

[Detoxx]

Funny story, back in the day it took 1 person tracking and the rest of the guild just camping out in strategic spots to kill mobs. Now it takes 30 people poop socking for the entire 16 hour duration of the window to even have a chance (ie: VS)

Lets do some basic math.
1 person x 96 hours = 96 hours of man power
30 people x 16 hours = 480 hours of man power

hmmmm

[Fael]

Try to separate in your mind that two things happened with the raid scene changes: (1) The casuals were allowed a slice of the action under the C/R/FFA regime. (2) And then variance was reduced to 16 hours, and certain rules were implemented that heightened the burden of maintaining adequate readyness. And (3) VP was returned to CSR mode.

The C/R/FFA system is what it is. I honestly don't care if 2/3 of this server sits in line for 1/3 of the end game content. Whatever.

Number 2 has created these stupid races which requires groups of 10-15 of mindless drones to sit at the entrance of vp all day, every weekend, waiting for that spawn to occur, and hoping to God it doesn't happen in that split second of time it takes to readjust your poop sock.

Number 3 has made the petition fest what it is today, among other things.

If there is any correlation between server numbers and raid scene changes, then most if not all will be because of change number 1. Red server has also seen a staggerring resurgence (from 30 at peak times to 300), and none of the above changes affected that server.

I am sure some people out there enjoy coth and VP zone in races. I would hope that they are few and far between.

When competition wasn't all restricted by stupid rules, TMO dominated hard enough to convince the other serious guild to RMT off the server and roll on EQMac.

It was a long road to domination. Most forget that. We started with 12 guys and raided for months before we could keep up with the top guilds pre-kunark. It took a few merges along the way and lots of recruiting.
The competition was fun and road to the top is what Everquest is all about. So many skilled players to go up against is what made a game/server like this worth being the best at.

[Detoxx]

When competition wasn't all restricted by stupid rules, TMO dominated hard enough to convince the other serious guild to RMT off the server and roll on EQMac.

Then said guild comes back and claims dominance all while knowing they never stood a chance in the old raid scene. Is it ironic they came back not too long before these changes went in? I doubt it, they knew it was coming and knew it was their only chance to compete again.

Funny story, back in the day it took 1 person tracking and the rest of the guild just camping out in strategic spots to kill mobs. Now it takes 30 people poop socking for the entire 16 hour duration of the window to even have a chance (ie: VS)

Lets do some basic math.
1 person x 96 hours = 96 hours of man power
30 people x 16 hours = 480 hours of man power

hmmmm


Your math is bad. TMO never had to poopsock, because nobody challenged them, until they were challenged and then there was 96 hour window (with extensions) poopsocking.

Are you really that daft? When FE came and challenged TMO, we weren't the ones socking. They were the kinds of getting VS simply because we refused to sock like they did.

Also, Taken was getting every Innoruuk and BDA nearly every Vox for weeks/months before these rules went in. Any idea why? Oh, cause they tried instead of cried. It was never hard to compete back then, y'all just wanted the easy route which, ironically, has become the much harder route.

Let's get real here:

There are never 30 people staring at a spawn point from one guild ever, except Noble clickfests. During that 16 hours, if there are even 30 people from one guild poopsocking something, most likely 1-2 are actually doing any "work" while the others are all logged in afk, waiting for a batphone or sound trigger and casually glancing at the screen once in awhile to see guildchat and throw a buff on someone occasionally.

Also, are you telling me that during the 96 hour windows you guys only had 1 person sitting in the zone through the entire window? I find that hard to believe.

[Raev]

Number 2 has created these stupid races which requires groups of 10-15 of mindless drones to sit at the entrance of vp all day, every weekend, waiting for that spawn to occur, and hoping to God it doesn't happen in that split second of time it takes to readjust your poop sock.

Are you sure? I mean we have people that poopsock the VP pad for repops even when dragons are not in window. I think the biggest change is the sheer number of L60 toons on this server owing to the length of Kunark and Chardok exploits.

Yes that is exactly what happened during 96 hour windows. One tracker that people rotated on for the duration of the window. The one positive and sorely missed aspect of 4 day windows was no one was going to poopsock that long. Yes, there was huge trak and vs socks, but that was at the last 8 hours out so of a window. Hence extended variance.

I think the best part was during 96 hour windows you could actually leave the house while stuff was in window and expect to make it back before they spawned. Now, with 16 hour windows, you've got to be near your computer the entire 16 hour window if you expect to make the raids.

The old windows were deffinetly loads easier and promoted 1000% less poopsocking. The only difference now is that there are more spawns to go around and no chance for one guild to lock everything down. Overall, raid scene improved. Honestly though, if they were looking to end poopsocking they did it all wrong.

IMO every raid boss should just be on a completely random (ie raid mobs are always in window, with respawn timers from 1 second to XX days) spawn timer. That way you never know when something will spawn and poopsocking is useless.

I agree with this. Would make it pointless to camp out buffed too I'd think.

[Detoxx]

Raid scene would be drastically better with 3 rules and 96 hour windows.

1. No training
2. Only 2 trackers at spawn point and raids camped at the currently unofficially agreed on spots.
3. FTE is king.

Before that? When there was nobody willing to poopsock with TMO for 96 hours? Yeah, you're probably right that TMO wouldn't be poopsocking then either.

You must have missed some of Kunark.... pop was above 1k. Only reason pop is high now is for Velious buzz. Variables man

[Xepiz]

hi!

[Lune]

You must have missed some of Kunark.... pop was above 1k. Only reason pop is high now is for Velious buzz. Variables man

Like I said before, 1k Kunark pre 2013 was short lived. By the time IB RMT'd off the server in 2011, the pop was around 600 and dipped as low as 450 in 2012. (40k fungi tunics, thanks Jeremy, 4k FBSS's)

Server was 1200+ in 2015/mid-late 2014 long before Velious was announced, with Kunark dragging on and on into its 4th year and beyond.

So I'm not sure what you attribute the pop growth to if it wasn't the epic trust-busting.

Little guilds used to suffer unbelievable turnover. Full circle, Asgard, The A Team, Flawless Victory, Acyrid. You can only do so many nights clearing planar trash and getting monks/shamans their epics, and these guilds would bleed members. Some would get geared and move on to TMO, many just quit. I did. Many of my friends did. Today we have over twice as many 'serious' guilds, and they all get mobs. There is more content available to a higher number of people once you get 50+.

But you must have a more plausible explanation for the higher pop, right?

I'll go ahead and quote scripture again:

10% of the server population causes 90% of the problems. We are all for competition, but it needs to be fair competition. We are also all here for the same thing, to experience classic Everquest. The same guild monopolizing raid content for 2 years that they might not even need anymore is ridiculous, just to block other guilds from the chance of gearing up to take on the same end game content.

I was thinking to myself the other day and I came to ask myself.. Are we providing this server to give people the arena to compete to such bitter extremes that it has resorted to taking every absolute measure to be victorious, or are we here to provide a classic Everquest experience for everyone to enjoy?

A lot of you make fun of it in your own terms, but it really does come down to fighting over very old content.

I mean, Rogean must be crazy right? Things were pretty good before, weren't they? I wonder why they did anything at all.

Sure. But I think you guys were pretty happy in class C until a few months ago when it started to fill up.

[Frieza_Prexus]

Class C has problems. The system as a whole has a lot of problems, but it is undeniable that the prospect of a protected class has been nothing but healthy for the server. Class R has its own problems. A lot of them, but segregating the player populations has been one of the most intelligent and fair moves ever made here.

I, for one, am very grateful to see that the staff has considered the importance of the casual player for the server's health. Addressing the problem maturely and thoughtfully by providing a safe environment for casuals has brought only prosperity.

[Cecily]

No. We've been hemorrhaging members for the entirety of the short variance adjustment and been pretty consistently unhappy with them. It's as Dolic said, the short variance is ironically much harder to deal with than the old 96 hour windows. 16 hour windows appeal to immediate gratification and class R jumped at that bait hook, line, and sinker. They just play a much more hardcore game than the old TMO ever suggested anyone play.
