I heard a rumor that you can donate money on Reign of Thule to get a race change. Is this true?

Do you have a full price schedule of the services you provide for money? Water we talking about here in totality? Also: Are you related in any way to Amelinda and do any of these services come with macaroons?

I don’t typically respond to trolls, but for any one that is actually interested, anything obtainable through PvP merchant is cosmetics and quality of life. Check out our website and join our Discord. Now is a good time to start with Kunark releasing next month.

Pleasant episode and Darksinga and Gangsta come off well. hard to trust a server that opens with offering GM intervention or perks in exchange for $ though. After all the endless nonsense this community has seen with RMT and nepotism from CSR, seems like a bold strategy for what i would assume is a nominal return.
Darksinga

I'm not sure what you mean by GM intervention or perks. Everything that you donate for, can be achieved by PvPing in game. The truth is, servers cost money. We each have full time jobs. This is not our full time gig, and it never will be. But, we will gladly host a permanent server for the PvP community with the help of the PvP community. At no point in time are you required to donate. Take a look at our website for more details. We hope to see you in Norrath!
Also, a huge shoutout to John for taking the time to speak with us. He was an A+ individual and deserves all the success in the world! Mahalo!

Server costs are easily covered for a season via donations that didn't have an item return. Hell we all paid for the garage box, that was a small community that paid for a $3k server. P99 runs on donations.
I'm not accusing you of any nefarious things but it's a slippery slope. It seems to me that opening the door for money transactions is opening Pandora's box. There are tons of people in this community who will slip into your DMs trying to pay you for legacy items on the downlow and what not. It's how these boxes always fall apart.
Renly unbanned Goatassin who used modified game files after a little flirtation and shirtless pics.
Amelinda. Derubael.
Opening the door by saying $10 for race change out of the gate is wild. Especially if your race change doesn't reset your starting stats so you are able to be an Ogre stat Gnome.
Either way, best of luck. Crazy to think you were like 10 years old when we were pvping and you were in Dark Defiant Warriors. Didnt realize the Bonaduce's were so young.

Who were you on VZ? Good times!
You bring up valid points, however, I’d argue that by openly giving rewards for donating (once again points can be acquired from PvP,) it would have the opposite effect. It’s not some “behind the doors” thing. This server is really meant for the 30+ dad who doesn’t have a ton of time anymore. It’s the same approach that TLP uses with XP potions and has been successful thus far.
Now if there were things you could only acquire via donating and not PvP, then sure, that’s dumb. But that’s not the case here. If you are concerned about the race change, you can farm the necessary points within a few days from just regular PvP. Donating really benefits the casual player.
That one VZTZ that 3k was donated I believe that server disappeared. I rather not take large sums but instead share costs on a monthly basis.

if you think getting a race change is pay to win(when people are making you a server for free), you are probably looking for an excuse to not play anyway

Yea I don't mind that part like a fresh box progression making a guild etc.
It's just at the end, the people are boring in little clicks from the ROZ's I've seen and the PVP is stale so there's no reward.

On red99 arrows have projectile collision and hit mobs, in TOV it's dangerous to bow. Umm lots of places you can't bow. I mean it's situational.
WW fights is all bow. TOV isn't much it's more wands/melee train. Pofear starts as bow but turns into train fest. Trying to think of main PVP zones. Most of the raid "PvP" is groups rushing a mob on a raid mob trying to dunk clerics which isn't bow quest.
Kael is kinda inbetween Bowquest and traditional. Faction chanter/sham fucking with the pull teams is worse windies are good though.

The thing with red is you have to play for the PVE, and it really isn't different from ROZ you're doing that anyway.

also any new guild, I don't think Pumice would do it but you get surprised who the psychos are later on sometimes, will get shit on by stables of insanely geared players and have relatively no chance but I still feel theres opportunity for a collaboration of guilds/players lol. Dream alive 2024.

I think having multiple server types for classic EQ PvP is a good thing.
I don't want to play on RoT because of the multi boxing allowed rule, but I think it has good leadership and runs very smooth.

Posting other pvp servers in here is tantamount to saying;:
I concede. You win red99. I quit.
Just saying. Play on the highest pop red server until the VM crashes do to sheer volume of pals online and they gotta launch red 2.0 on dedicated hardware.

No good reason RoT team and p99 team can't merge and have launched a real red2.0. Dunno why they didn't.

You let them pay for and setup a p99 brand server with approved bug fixes and patches to stuff like bowquest. Butt u veto all of the other dumb shenanigans.

Hey man, I know you have a lot of hate towards the server because of the Discord ban pre launch, but you are still welcome to play here and are not banned in game.
rotpvp.com has all the info you need.
For every one else, we just launched Kunark and hit a new high of 218. For the next week, we have a 1-50 XP bonus, so if you are on the fence about trying the server, now is the time to give it a shot.

never was interested in playing standard everquest emulator box #117, but then you guys decided to add instances (lol) and pay2win (lol)
nazi moderation from NSA agent wannabe gangsta is just the cherry on top of reasons not to play there
but hey, if you throw up an actual fun server like dragonspear, I might log in

EXP rate was too low for me to sink my teeth into. I probably wouldn't have played anyway. Pre ordered the new wow expansion it included dragonflight the current one. That and dota casual now play whatever hero I want.
I spent maybe an hour on ROT and got to level 4? Mobs were easy enough the content is easy mode ish, but the exp rate itself was very low for drug box.
I just don't have the grind in me anymore I get why people want to keep it but I'm sure end game will be lame so it's hard to immerse in the grind. If I can make it to 60 in like 25 hours I would consider it. Whatever that would work out to EXP wise.
This would feel like 100 hours to get 60? To find out it's gay?
Or maybe like 60-70 hrs?
