zone pluggers confessional
 
just a random for fun thread. have you zone plugged before in eq pvp? do you do it often? do you do it rarely? have you never? I think we all can agree that zoning in pvp is pretty lame and that zone plugging to avoid death is extremely lame.

I very rarely plug but sometimes I feel it's worth the embarrassment. there's only a few scenarios where it's worth while to me:

-on melee toons when I am bound far away and don't want to deal with a horrid CR

-on item loot servers when I am about to get my shit pushed in and I want to save my pixels

-on coin loot scenarios when I've had excessive plat on me to complete a trade.

I don't personally care about epeen reasons, everyone dies in pvp, it doesn't bother me.

I personally only had to do it once to save myself from losing coin/item. Got attacked by a wizard near the zone at some dungeon in kunark. roots worn off and i zone plugged because I was completely oom on my cleric.

^you joke about that, but I bet it applies to a lot of folks :[

I used to ghost back on live with a bard to get through to PoM. Basically unplug your connection for 15 seconds then plug it back in for 5 and repeat. You would gain agro for 5 seconds but then lose it, just pray you survive that long.

On live with item loot... I played a caster, and only wore a robe and some 2int rings most of the time, and usually got the robe + rings and maybe some random trash bagged.

On EMU I have plugged a few times when I was playing a melee, far as fuk from my bind, and didnt want to stay online to CR or mess with it the following day.

No Plug no Win

LOL U PLUG ***LOTS***

My position on the OP: if you don't want me plugging, don't let me get to the zoneline when it's a 5v1 fight and I'm at 5% health.

I've never plugged. The only thing I'll do is zonedance because I find that I often load faster than other people, and then if I can end up on the opposite zone as them, I'll run around a corner and log out, unless I'm a caster, in which I'd just gate.

Never did, never will. You folks you do it are pussies.
