Dunno eq is carrots and roller coasters I'm so confused

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. I can't help but think of Arthas when i here this quote. Yea this is completely off-topic but any thread i make gets promptly deleted so I'll post it here. If only blizzard made games like they made trailers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORwuO...feature=g-vrec THe narriative of Arthas's father is just awesome.

I dont even blame Rogean and the devs for the servers failure, i blame the idiotic community.

If the community had half a brain it would have seen this coming and put pressure on devs early but the core combo of the PVE poopsockers and the pvp griefers to whom xp loss in pvp was useful and wanted ran this server down the shitter.

All the casuals got trickled out silently as well as any new blood attempting to roll on red.

To sum it up, community pwned itself in the face and Rog & Co probably thought hey 90% of the pop cant be wrong

i think most of the community DID see this coming and after little to no response from devs they bailed the fuck out. all you have to do is browse the forums and you will find thread after thread pleaing for some kind of dev response. i dont think anyone quit because of pvp xp loss, they quit for 100s of other reasons you can find in 100s of other threads.

That was in the end, when there was like ~100 people left at peak, im talking about earlier than that

Get a clue, several people made efforts to inform the staff about the likely consequence of the rule set as well as many of the bugs and exploits which where promptly abused after the staff was made aware of these things and ignored them

How often can you talk about the same shit everyday before it gets boring and redundant. It's a fucking emulator, either play on it or don't play on it.

Yeah just like guard assist and the resist fixes plummeted it too.


No, what drove it down was the shit community (which was already in doomsday THE SKY IS FALLING mode back in January) and Rogean being completely AWOL from the forums.


"Classic Everquest" meant 80+ people in Greater Faydark. It meant you'd pvp before you even hit the orc hill.

That doesn't happen here, so I don't want to hear your argument about how increasing the grind is going to ruin "the classic experience" (which isn't classic). The VZTZ design was more faithful to old school RZ than this server is, and the majority of reds wanted it that way from the start. This server used Blue99 as the foundation instead of VZTZ. You can draw your own conclusions on whether that was a mistake or not.

Have you tried out LoZ yet Searyx? I think it has most of the features (fast xp, easier time of things, YT, etc) that you are after.

Yeah it's just a tough call between that or this server's offering of no PvP and soloing to level 50.

I'm so torn.
