View Full Version : not only name plates but variance is also a big deal

aside from the obvious aon name plate issue variance would also be a great addition to red 99

a few other officers including myself of <Good guys> have vowed to not play/contest during graveyard hours. With the server coming down recently and resetting raid mob spawn timers, <Empire> led by colgate killed the majority of the content during the graveyard shift 3AM EST. I was sleeping during this time cuddling with my girlfriend after a passionate night of love making, but variance would allow normal people a reasonable shot at contesting said raid mobs due to not always spawning at graveyard timers.

not only that but it will force a lot higher population on the server as well as much more pvp for zone control / scouting.

a 24-48 hour variance on raid mobs would be a big incentive for players to pvp and participate in zone control/ scout control.

variance and the showing of name plates are the 2 biggest things holding p99 red back at the moment and the staff should really consider these for the health and integrity of the server

variance will never happen.

Rogean somehow needs to be convinced that manually triggering things is a bad idea. Which as a programmer it's kind of odd that you'd need to persuade him of that concept.

The PnP is by far the biggest issue on this server.

Until that's altered, who gives a shit about nameplates?

If you're gonna champion a change, make it the issue that people actively avoid PvP for because of its mere existence.

pnp is #3 on level of important

aon name plates and variance are way more important

Sirken is waiting for us to bring forward a proposal. Gather a few officers to write it up, and I will do the same.

Sirken has always stated he'd prefer if we made the rules and the staff simply enforces them.

Not sure if srs, you can't even keep track of your opinions. I have the same views now riled, as I did when I was froggied.

Relax nerd. stay mad

Yes I mean. Now that I am fighting the zerg. I believe variance would hinder my guilds ability. Even though I'm in the smaller guild, knowing exact timers allows me to have greater control over how to attack the engagement and relieves my fear of not being able to mobilize and properly track a spawn window the way the larger zerg with more resources and neckbeards is able to.

pnp is one the major issues on this server

I just got out of a 28 day suspension for logging in and killing someone who was supposedly on lns (and was unaware)

red server should have no pnp or no pnp for 60s

aon no name is classic

naw it's cool, multiplicative suspensions last month for 20 people (just counting one guild) seems like a normal and non-pressing issue.

whereas spending even more time on EQ tracking raid mobs because only one side wants it in the game...

or

adding names to above skeletons

i've already talked to gardur about writing something up and coming together. who do you think had that idea?

but you might want to focus your efforts on either a) quitting or b) stabilizing your guild that just had 5 different guilds merge together first.

Why not just agree to have guild members turn off ANON/ROLEPLAY and turn on LFG while they are on LNS?

It sure would take the guess work out and one screen shot of /who in the zone would eliminate the petition questing.

Just a suggestion.

I changed my main to a monk because they are the best at running away and hiding from pvp to avoid suspensions.

You know what I'd like to see enforced ? People avoiding forum bans and just posting on another account. You got banned because you are a shit poster and you just turn around and shit the forums up more. I want to see in game bans for forum ban dodging.

Its a great suggestion, people would bag their gear and turn on LFG to avoid PvP though.

El Camacho

That seems like something that could happen now? Seems like the petition questing is having a bigger effect on reducing pvp though.

anyhow, seems like the petitioning really only applies to the 2 guilds. Maybe the respective leaders agree on it as internal policy, tell sirken and it would end LNS petition quest for all time and forever.

remove pnp for 56+ for the love of god. If you need to Lns at 56+ just roll another character and play that one.

I don't think people realize how crazy some people go without PNP.

how would you know if someone was 52,53,54, or 55 if you are 56?

you can't just say 'turn off the pnp for in range to 60s'

this server is not made up of a bunch of hardcores, and as much as we may like to see the pnp gone, it would be at the expense of our population.

this server isn't ever going to be the sullon zek battlefield people want it to be

SZ had no middle ground, no agreements, no rules - and it was the least populated server after it became apparent to people what type of environment was embraced there.

here it's a necessity to make compromises

if there's no pnp, there are trains all day everyday

why wouldn't you train if it was allowed? you can define training as being scummy, but if it's allowed, no one cares if they train or not. i would train every GG raid if the PnP got turned off.

use your brians for once

how would you know if someone was 52,53,54, or 55 if you are 56?

basicaly im just saying if your 60 nobody would petition you anymore.

I mean the over analazing of the rules is whats killing this server, not aons, not fungis not anything else.

truth if there was NO pnp then people would flop huge trains on every group everywhere.. so obviously we need some rules...

but seriously you guys need to stop crying and petitioning and shit, start acting like red and stop acting like worst possible blue's in history.

PS groot when I say you i dont directly mean you, you dont seem to have a case of the qq's at all.

LNS is just an excuse for people to abuse the system imo, I don't think it should be a thing, and would gladly sneak my way back to a body than cry about it in OOC. It's a PK server, no one gives a shit if you died twice in a row.

Everyday I see people getting asshurt in ooc because they were LNS, had a dude FLIP on me for rooting him because of it. If you die too much in PvP, learn to not die— if you want it to be fair you aren't the same shade of Red as the other people on the server. You aren't getting looted, you aren't losing xp, so there is no issue— if you are getting wrekt on the daily, log or have some friends help you out instead of trying to get the person banned; that's just cheap.
