return of double xp weekends

[DeathWalking]

right after p99 starts losing players to another emu server.


discuss.

[Swish]

enjoy it on red, our operators are waiting to take your call.

[ArumTP]

or as an alternative to instead of velious launch
or because the server crashed a lot earlier this week

[Secrets]

right after p99 starts losing players to another emu server.


discuss.

Ragefire isn't an emulator server though

[DeathWalking]

i wasnt talking about ragefire, and im pretty sure you know that <3

Sorry, Lockjaw. My mistake. Forgot there's two of them now.

[DeathWalking]

^ kek mad

[Ravager]

It's probably meant to make it up to all the nerds who took time off for the Velious launch.

[DeathWalking]

its been years since theyve given a shit about the nerds lol


theyre afraid. secrets and haynar slinging mud and threatening to move my off-topic thread to rnf (which is now strictly p99 related) are pretty clear cut evidence of that.


that wound is bleeding, and you arent clotting.

[waffel]

You really should go outside and quit taking this game so seriously. It's embarrassing.

[Pokesan]

A&H server decides to remove guise drop due to the influx

steer clear

[DeathWalking]

theyre removing it when they implement kunark

no longer drops here either. hmm

im sad secrets and haynar didnt sperg out like they did in the other thread.

[Red_Psyphon]

new progression server is garbage, as they all were. P99 is the superior brand.

[Kowalski]

Ragefire = Rageblows

[DeathWalking]

ragefire isnt an emu, pal

[Itap]

Straws, you're reaching for them

Sorry. Been busy doin other stuff. No time to troll. I play on the other server anyways. Not on p2002.

Have fun.

[Waedawen]

I'm really impressed with how deathwalking clearly knows what the fuck he is talking about, pretty much 100% of the time

keep on fighting the good fight

[Portasaurus]

This Kermit guy really seems to enjoy embarrassing himself on these forums. Why do you think he keeps doing that to himself? Discuss.

[Jimjam]

I guess he wants to keep kimm company on people's ignore lists?

[Jimjam]

am I RNFing right? that's my flame cherry popped :P

[Portasaurus]

If he replies within the next ten minutes, then we have both succeeded.

[kaev]

am I RNFing right? that's my flame cherry popped :P

There is no way to do RnF right.

[Sadre Spinegnawer]

The only way p99 would go down is if another emu server managed to have a properly policed, no-boxing, no-haxxoring server, but had managed to successfully fix endurance and night vision.

That would do it. The asylum likes the pain.

[Jimjam]

Lol, I must admit I had mu suspicions!

F%#!ing Nightvision. So irritating. I have spent some time last looking into it. So annoying.

Spell scribe speeds is what i was looking at this weekend. They have the scribe tied directly to the refresh rate of the guage display. Seriously? Why not tie it to a fixed timer. So trying to track down any timer associated with refresh rate when spell book is open now.

Anyways. Back to digging thru assembly.

H

[Waedawen]

People trying to diss on "kermit guy" should get off their high horse and get right the fuck out of RNF

You people don't belong here.

If you're trying to act holier-than-thou on a fucking elf sim Rants & Flames board, you need to just get the fuck out.

[Wfrench1234]

That's kinda hypocritical

[Portasaurus]

Awww looks like Kermit guy found a friend!!!

[rebeccablack]

I for one wish only the best for this new emu which will definitely still be around in 6 months

[Pokesan]

P99 staff are literally shaking in fear of 30 people 3 boxing on a server they assisted in creating!

[Haynar]

I can see the battle between the two AK emu servers. I don't get baiting me tho. Maybe kermit dude is just a Master Baiter.

I dunno.

[Waedawen]

what the hell is this even supposed to imply, is my question

[Portasaurus]

It means my horse has very tall legs and your horse and kermit's horse have little stubbly legs, if you guys even have horses at all

[Jimjam]

Hold on there, horses are NOT classic.

[pink grapefruit]

What servers are supposed to be scaring the devs?

How is teams pvp coming along, Haynar? :)

As much as I want more classicness, I'm having a hard time wishing you luck.

[DetroitVelvetSmooth]

Kind of obvious the real purpose of the xp weekend is to ascertain the current playerbase for Daybreak so they can gauge how worth it it will be to take over p99. Duh.

[HeallunRumblebelly]

Like 2000 people on a night and the server's going down. Oh no you guys.

My tinfoil hat is taller than yours!

[DeathWalking]

My tinfoil hat is taller than yours!

hes probably right. seems like a well orchestrated shitshow if you axe me.

DBG tactically joins forces with p99 right before velious, gets velious pushed back and opens 2 shitty pseudo classic servers where midrange mages dominate everything.

that cranks up the butthurt. everyones like "THATS NOT CLASSIC", then its like oh hey, p99 is 'classic'. everyone comes here, DBG takes over p99 and puts in a marketplace.


and while people are getting funneled from live to p99 for the inevitable takeover, im picking them off as they get here. gotten about 15-20 people to stop playing here in favor of p2002.
http://m.cdn.blog.hu/su/subba/image/snoop.gif

[Portasaurus]

Man I logged into p99 tonight and something just didn't feel right. Something was missing. Maybe like.... 15-20 fewer people logged in or something? Anyway, I don't know if I can continue here. Just doesn't feel the same.

Anyone have any ideas what might be going on??

[DeathWalking]

15-20 in 4 days bruh. how many will be gone in a year?

[Efwan]

Lol what's the p2002 peak population now? 100 maybe? Sooo actually more like 35-40. Keep em

How about medding with a book in your face until 35? I'd poop my pants in joy if that was implemented.

[DeathWalking]

sadly, p99 is not a classic server, it merely claims to be.

[Efwan]

Way to dodge. Sweerrrvvee

[Portasaurus]

This Kermit guy is too easymode for my profound FQ abilities. Anyone else out there wanna actually give this a proper try?

Can use this thread if you want or make your own, same diff to me!

If i can link refresh rates while book is open. I can probably black out everything except spell book. Then tie it to meditate. Booyah.

So maybe.

Not before velious. But maybe before recycled server.

DeathWalking was a good forumquester, and a good man. He was one of us. He was a man who loved the outdoors... and Everquest, and as a surfer he explored the beaches of Southern California, from La Jolla to Leo Carrillo and... up to... Pismo. He died, like so many young men of his generation, he died before his time. In your wisdom, Lord, you took him, as you took so many bright flowering young men at Khe Sanh, at Langdok, at Hill 364. These young men gave their lives. And so would DeathWalking. DeathWalking, who loved Everquest. And so, DeathWalking, in accordance with what we think your dying wishes might well have been, we commit your final mortal remains to the bosom of RnF, which you loved so well. Good night, sweet prince.

I gave formshifter/deathwalking plenty of opportunity to come back (he's been banned 4+ other times prior), he was welcome to stay if he cleaned up his act. He failed to clean it up, after promising to me he would do so. I however did follow through on my promise to him.

I'm not going to tolerate someone that repeatedly bashes the staff / server on our own forums, especially to new players on the "getting started" forums, and on other forums / reddit.

He is no longer welcome here.

[Jimjam]

I never understand how people think they can persuade you to try something they like by insulting something you like.

Since he was banned and can't answer himself, hopefully another poster can answer for him. Is Deathwalking associated in any 'official' way to P2002, or is he just an enthusiast?

[Haynar]

He has no official associations with p2002. He is fairly new playing there.

H

[Jimjam]

Ah, well I can forgive him for being over-enthusiastic then, even if that enthusiasm was very poorly and very liberally directed.

Not that my forgiveness means anything!

can i ask specifically which post Formshifter was banned for? or was it more of a "straw that broke the camel's back" type scenario?

[Pokesan]

banned for being a major fucker

[Glenzig]

Are you really dumb enough to have to ask this?

[Thulghor]

Not everyone stays up to day with the latest bullshit forum drama.

[Thulghor]

Although I'm guessing RMT since that seems to be the common banning offense around here.

[Efwan]

He just told you, clear as day.

[Big_Japan]

Is it "clear as day" that it was a "straw that broke the camel's back" type scenario? Because "he failed to clean up his act" is hardly a reference to a specific post.

I don't get where all this hostility is coming from guys, just a question.

[waffel]

What a massive tool. Bashes the game on this forum, the starter area, and on other forums. Has also been banned 4+ times before? That guy seriously needs to get some life perspective and/or some psychiatric help. Definitely not classic human behavior.

its a pretty dumb question

dude trolled every thread he posted in, inside and out of RNF. what else is there to understand? he was toxic, he was banned, he has been banned before. I guess he has an IP ban now according to Sikorsky.

[Jimjam]

I hope he didn't get banned IRL. That would be going too far Sikorsky.

[Faron]

Is the double xp weekend something that happens every week or just this one time?

[Portasaurus]

Sounds like popular theory is that double xp just happened this one time because the p99 gods were noticing a seriously damaging exodus to the Project 2002 server and needed to stop the massive bleeding.

As such, double xp went into effect and p99 set a new all-time attendance record two days ago.

[indiscriminate_hater]

the last double exp event was a 4-day exp orgy given to players as recompense for the great DDoS fest of 2014. velious opening will probably bring out all of the basement haters in full force. figure another double exp will probably happen about a month after to keep the new players that were attracted by the velious drop

[Jimjam]

I thought it was because of the recent server instability. A way to make amends for any bad feeling from players and (more practically) a chance to stress test the new equipment.

I left my tinfoil hat on the coatstand today.

[Pringles]

I assumed it was because of original Velious release date / server issues over the holiday.

You, sir, are not practicing safe RnF. I hope you've warned your partner.

[DetroitVelvetSmooth]

So naive. The double xp was clearly in response to Daybreak Ltd.'s request for an accurate total accounting of the potential maximum playerbase. Winter is coming.

So naive. The double xp was clearly in response to Daybreak Ltd.'s request for an accurate total accounting of the potential maximum playerbase. Winter is coming.

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

[DetroitVelvetSmooth]

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
