Raid Watchers like Weight Watchers where each raid target is worth a certain amount of points and guilds get only so many points allowed whereas they have to choose certain targets they can't acquire because of their balance of points.

RAID WATCHERS! DON'T BE A GLUTTON!

I briefly tried red, and here's my my story. *Intro music*

You are a Paladin of Marr, on a holy quest around level 12. You wait 20 minutes at the docks to set sail to the Ocean of Tears. Time for adventure.

Everything is going fine until you dock at a port, suddenly you are blasted by spells! You try hiding in the boat, but the spells go through the hulls! You run up on deck and see that there is a caster with sow+ lev nuking you. He has a few guild mates on the island as well. Now you have a few options (choose your adventure!)

1. Run for land! Get gang banged on the island and die.
2. Swim for the ocean! Get chased down for 5 minutes and die in the ocean somewhere
3. Stay in the boat! Get nuked to death.

No matter what you do, you inevitably die and have a corpse run requiring you to wait for the boat again. Well seeing as your corpse is camped and your not the type to get mad you log off and grab something to eat. Watch a movie. Five hours pass and you log back in Red99.

You sit naked at the docks for the boat to retrieve your corpse. You get near your corpse and...You get nuked by the same guy Those guys are still there after 5 hours.

Repeat this experience multiple times. One time a guy camps you for 8 hours, you don't even know him beyond this experience but he camps you like he like he loves you.

You log off Red99 forever, and months later you see those same guys complain on the forums the server is empty and dead.

Finally! Someone posts a way to fix P99 in general. I mean, come on guys (guise?), it's been YEARS and no one has proposed anything like this. FINALLY now maybe that the devs know how to fix P99 in general they'll listen. And, of course, as the OP says, everyone knows EQ PVP is fantastically fun. I mean, just look at the track record around here, it's obvious.

Shit that didn't happen.txt

Literally just your blubie fantasy of what you think happens on a PvP server. As was pointed out, you could have simply declared LnS and retrieved your corpse without incident.

Tired of seeing these liars come out of the woodwork and agitate against the overwhelming popular demand for a Teams PvP server.

Why isn't there a new sub-forum yet where people can post their ideas to solve all the problems of the world?
