I just felt like ranting my opinion, and that was a joke I wasn't really serious about 10 years down the line haha.

I spent about 11 days played levelling my rogue to 50 - surely taking a minute to make a thread about how fucked up the resist code has remained makes me taking this too serious.

Live had a big life-dedicated crowd also. Telen played 15-18 hours a day it felt like? I PvP'd him all the time on my rogue, couldnt scratch him... but if he could just first cast darkness me and kill me everytime that sure would have been a lot of fun.

The problem with it here is you basically lose to numbers/class paper rock scissors - and requires 0 skill/fun.

How about no?

Waaaaaay too late for that now; a lot of people are too vested in their characters. If they had done it when I was seriously suggesting it over a month ago and rolled out a campaign to get new players (read: events) there may have been a shot.

Now we have a box pretty much doomed to stay where it is, because I can think of nothing that's going to attract a reasonably large number of new players.

C'est la vie.

I just started up again and I must say its still fun if you give it a chance. It is still lacking global ooc which I used to be against but am not anymore. Not to mention new content will bring everyone back at once i would imagine. Server is still doing ok. Couple things could use tweaking. global ooc being the main thing.

The only thing that would bring people back is a wipe then reroll with x2 exp all the way thru.

Not gonna happen but it's really the only thing people are waiting for.

They really shoulda relaunched once they put the guard assist in, I remember TONS of people quit in like the first month because they were bind camped by mage earth pets at like level 8 inside towns.

I didn't think teams were a good idea at launch, but really it's kinda gay the way the only guilds that do well are pre-packaged or are formed by groups of people who knew each other from other servers. Really not newbie friendly.

I agree here; I think no guard/assist killed it from the start. The other problems I think new PvP players could really have dealt with...but the bank gank squads drove them out. They couldn't even get to the bank to save up for their first spell sets or even newb gear.

I dont get the peoples logic who want a wipe. Just play the game and let the GMs do their job. Amelinda doing a decent job and more are en route soon. Its just super classic and no hate atm either. If you are not starting now a wipe will not get you to start. Would just you be crying all over again because of some other silly reason. Just play the game, have fun if you want, and stop crying. Changes are comming soon i would expect.

The no guard assist was stupid as shit not to have in though i agree. Tons of people quit, but now there is no reason to not start up again. Its not as bad as the loud ones say.

The only reason people are asking about a wipe which we all know would never happen, is that the people who quit the first month due to a lot of the coding issues are not going to come back on a server where everyone else has been farming guk and planes for months.

Also there IS a reason not to start up again, it's because there is an uber low population.

Even those of us that have been playing since launch are kinda losing faith at this point.

I can deal with some empty zones but things have gotten way too empty, there is such little pvp.

With no one else around there is no pvp and all I end up doing is grinding mobs which is not why I came here in the first place.
