Group with your nuts since they are so close to where your head is 8) Not everyone has to be like you thats the beauty of the world . throw yourself over a cliff and do society a favor so we can progress.

Playing on euro time this will decrease leveling even more. More because that not alot of players on at that time. And also if you only got an hour, you have to get a group where you wait 30min to get it and 30min for it to gather. Then you have to leave and group gets annoyed because you leaving so early.

In my opnion this isn't the right solution.

being a lvl 29 enchanter atm this is a huge blow. Trying to solo as I type this and the exp is non existant....it's really inspiring me to keep playing...

I'm using my casted pet btw.

I'm all for stopping people from AFK leveling but this is not making sense to me at all. Why should I suffer and be forced to group when I'm soloing while I'm at my keyboard and still soloing slower than many other soloable clasess.

No you are right, not everyone does. Hell, i dont WANT everyone to be like me....kinda kills the unique factor of life.

But, since you want to be a complete jackass, i shall be one as well (which makes me like you :rolleyes:)

You are a pathetic excuse of a person if you are crying and threatening to quit (which believe me i highly doubt anyone will give a flying fuck) over a small change (which it turns out will probablly be changed next patch anyways) that completely destroys AFK leveling, and no use in denying it, inhibits soloing for pet type classes. I do agree, soloing should not be taken out, but seeing as how a GM has made it QUITE clear they would be discussing changing this hot-fix, there is no reason to throw a god damn hissy fit.

Suck it up, stop being a damn child, and adapt to this change for a brief amount of time. Believe me, WE KNOW YOU ARE UPSEt... and i am sorry that you are having such a hard time struggling to get EXP now. But welcome to EQ, bitch. Where training and trains are both hellacious and laughable.

Honestly, the one thing that just leaves me stunned is how you EVER played everquest back in the old days if you are threatening to leave over something like THIS. Make a fucking alt, play him when your confidence cant handle a slightly slower grind, and wait for the new hotfix (or atleast word of whether or not it will happen).

Btw, this does not actually kill afk leveling or soloing, it only makes it go slower...but your fucking sleeping what difference does it make :rolleyes: hell try playing a damn paladin or troll sk like a few other people have done and are doing...think that is slightly worse than this ;) atleast you can still solo and not be forced to find groups like us.

I wouldn't sweat it folks, sounds like they are going to fix this soon (and still ban afk levelling which we almost all agree on).

WyldGunz 02-18-2010 03:33 PM

hehe nice virt 8) i didnt threaten to quit i just posted im unable to play and unless its fixed im not going to play. Get yer facts straigh lil boy. Sorry you feel the way you do about anyone thinking outside your hole theres just not enough room in there for any more heads and i like open air. Anyhow good luck to you im sure your going far in life with your mindset.

Virtuosos 02-18-2010 03:47 PM

plesae, if you are going to attempt to belittle me, change up your insults..3 posts now all saying the same thing "lil boy, small pennor, head up ass".... atleast be original -.- if i knew i would have to expect the same shit with no actual argument or counter-points i wouldnt of started shit...i dont like to argue with nitwits (classic 90's insult...going retro this afternoon!!)

But here, I will blow you out of the water again :)

You did threaten to quit, you are blind if you dont see how "IM NOT PLAYING UNLESS ITS FIXED" is not a threat to quit.... and honestly if you cant see that then i might as well ask you to not contiune reading what is below this line
-----------------------------------------------------


You still with me? Because you realized i am right or because you are too dumb to just stop reading? Because listen honey...it might get more complicated now...

here we go, hold on to your helment ;)

I am an extremely open person when the topics and points are actually logical. Afk leveling and blindless soloing are easy mode, and this is not an easy mode server...If you want free levels or fast levels, go play EZ Mode Server....I dont care if people want to solo, i honestly wish a paladin could solo effectively...what I do care is people afk leveling and then thinking they are good because of it.. Afk leveling is a blatant flaw that should be fixed. Argue that all you want, but you are just making yourself look more foolish than you already do.

Now, I do think the 50% xp thing is alittle ridiculous as it does discourage soloing. But, i am also smart enough to read what the GM's post in regard to the patch. I understand that people will only deal with this thing for a little bit of time until the next patch, and the reason for doing this so quickly was because it was OBVIOUSLY a last minute thing (we had just talked about it the day before) since the patch was due for today (nice big list of fixes..go go HHK!!) and so no one had time to discuss a more logical solution. This was because dumbass wooly made a huge ass of himself, demanded for a clear rule, and this is what we got.

If you yourself werent so blinded by greed of fast leveling and not having to talk to people (which from what we've seen is probablly a good thing...you seem like a prick TBH ;)) you would be able to see past the inital change and recognize the purpose behind it and wait for a more suitable solution.

If you want to contiune arguing, pleaes...send me a message. I enjoy drama as much as the next guy (especially when its so easy to fuck with ya), but I rather keep it in messages so we dont disturb the people who actually want to have an intelligent discussion over this change

This is pretty unfortuante for me. I play a level 7 necro, and I am not some sort of AFK leveler or (clearly not) an exlpoiting enchanter. This was not how it was in live, as I was just linked to the pet rules a few days ago (can't find it now...figures) from classic and the game mechanics were like they were before this patch. I do not have the spells to overpower my pet at this point and have any mana left after the fight. This is affecting people who just want to play the game as intended. I, like many others, have obligations at peak times and can only pop in for an hour or two to level. This, combined with the fact that they don't have a substantial exp modifier, is why I chose necro.

This isn't affecting AFK leveling in the least because now they will just sit AFK for twice the time. This is screwing over anyone who just rolled ench. The people who are supporting this are completely unaffected and do not understand that there are people like me who just started and can't play every weekend for twelve hours at a time. You would think you could just go into the code and go if(AFK > 30 mins) you can no longer gain exp.

TLDR: This sucks for me.
