Servers a joke with such a shitty community

Yeah your best bet is to NOT go to crushbone, unrest, ect to level. Those places usually have the bad pvpers de-leveled twinks to grief any bluewbie uneducated enough not to go there.

It isn't for everyone man. I started on blue when I found out about P99 even though I played on a pvp server on live. Blue just wasn't for me. I kept wanting to slay people who tried to take our raid mobs. Good luck with blue.

Allot of the trolls I've seen lately were new players fresh from blue. Sure we have a few ooc offenders but it's been quite tame as of late. I've seen worse in WOW.

I understand different player's enjoy different things in MMO's, personally a non pvp server is hell to me. I couldn't possibly see the allure in playing a game filled with people you cannot attack.

But if slaying the dragon is where it's at for you then red will be a bad fit.

I had a blast experiencing anew the excitement of being a real newbie! I know yesterday was a special situation since a LOT of people started a new character on Saturday. Therefore, on Sunday there were a LOT of people around levels 10-15 looking to group. The cooperation was fun, the experience bonus was crazy, and the chatting during down time was just like the good ol' days.

I was attacked by players only a few times. I knew to have my "Flash of Light" ready and was able to run like hell as soon as the root wore off. The fact that I survived suggests to me that the attackers were newbies just like me. I had a great laugh when I was attacked in the bank and watched as my attacker fled with a guard in hot pursuit.

The community here seemed quite welcoming. Thank you VERY much to the very nice ogre who saw my pathetic level 5 self, half dead, sitting to regen health and mana, and took pity, handing me over 500 gold, silver, and copper!! (I also received two nice weapons that I can sell when I figure out how that's done on this server.) My heart was racing as I gated home and realized that I was obviously encumbered as I ran to the bank--felt like I had a big red bullseye painted on my back!

A good time was had by all :-)

The community is what you make of it.

You can let yourself get offended by the ooc BS of the same 5 guys and their 40 alts, or you can just ignore that crap, find some friends, enjoy the xp bonus at group level and the easy accessibility to raids if you care for that.

If you are mad or frustrated before you start, it isn't going to work. Need to be able to realise its "just a game" when people take the dump on you, log of for 15 mins and walk your dog.

Great server for those who can handle the entry barrier.

Welcome to all new players.

Push past the lower levels and the game will open up due to lack of low level twinks trying to grief you off of the server.

Thats great man! Ever felt that excited when carrying 500 gold to the bank on blue? :)

I was given some starter money by 2 big names, in opposing guilds. Easy to find people that hate either guy, they are both nice people though .. :)

Thatt 12-01-2014 01:54 PM

Starter money would have been nice, I can't afford spells because I haven't looted enough of value in the time it took to level to 9. I've only got a couple more levels before I can do bandits or something though, that'll turn things around.
