what this guy said ^

I still occasionally login but been pretty inactive last 3 months or so.. server is boring as hell and has been for awhile, there are a few factors that contribute.

Red99 is basically a blue server with PvP enabled, it isn't pvp centric at all. Few things that could help it if it were tweaked:

- I really liked a LoZ feature that allowed you to /who all a zone and would tell you how many players were in it. I can say even as a Wizard porting around trying to find PvP is boring as hell.
- If you do happen to find PvP most people like to fight 5 ft from the zone line so if they're in trouble, they bail and plug. Any anti-plug code would be amazing, something simple like if the client detects a disconnect between zones it puts the PC on the zone they were zoning out to helpless for 2-3 mins (enough for a kill) to deter people from the very thing they're trying to so desperately avoid. Even broadcasting a plug, having the server OOC the person that "lost connection" and the last PC that casted on it, some shame in plugging.
- Clickies, trak tooths, even gate pots either make them insanely expensive and rare or take them out completely. You really don't need to die now if you don't want to with the t-staff nerfed.
- Get rid of the R99 forums completely, the smallish community makes certain that even the most insignificant death will be heard and storied on the forums, this type of behavior obviously makes people play more conservative and makes PvP less fun imo.
- I'd like to think Velious would help, giving players a solid Velious expac that many haven't seen could bring back people but I don't think it will solve the overall issues that plague this server.
- Make 2boxing legal on Red99, it could give the smaller underdog guilds a better opportunity to do raid content and it would bring in more players overall.

I'm not against a wipe in theory, but I personally don't think I care enough about EQ at this point to play again here if there were one after the initial two week noob fun fest, especially when it would be going against WoW 5.4 patch / EQ3.

better be careful and get that raid attendance up bro, i have certain assurances if you dont log in for a bit i get to app.

LOL oooh you mean laughing stocks of the server which are still playing every single night?.lol Erm... and other Nihilums...

Haven't needed anything on my main since March, have @ it you wouldn't be the first and certainly not the last person who used to be opposition to join, cold hard facts when you try to run essentially a PvE first guild.

Truth of the matter is that if content didn't run just through Nihilum the overall server health and competition would be a lot better. Until a dedicated playerbase with a dedicated leader ala Nizzar show up and play I don't think we'll ever have a pvp centric box. I give kudos to all the hardcore players that go the hard underdog route, but reality is that 75% of them that don't burn out and quit end up apping to Nihilum anyway. I can name at least 3-4 on our app board right now.

red99 will never be saved as long as rogaine has master control and the rest of the staff cant agree on certain policies that arent completely fucking retarded(looking at you, ephi)

lookout colgate you may get yourself a booting poatareega

Though I haven't played in months, I agree with Heartbrand and Thrilla's postz.
