PVP server
 
dont know if this was covered, i searched pvp but nothing

What are the chances that you would mirror this server but have PVP enabled?

i love pvp server but that vztz thing they got is a stupid server hehe.

As fun as it would be for a PVP server there are a lot of things to consider for running one. The type of people that PVP servers attract are some of the hardest type of people to deal with. Hacking rampant all over the place, people finding ways to exploit the server, making zones crash, etc. It is horrible to deal with.

so your short answer im guessing would be "no" bummer

Rogean 05-31-2010 05:25 PM

That's just my initial reaction ;)

And it's a good one. Anyone who has spent any amount of time at the EQEmu community over the years knows this pretty well.

The people who play on vztz know more about the eqemu exploits than those who play on p99, this is indeed true.

I would hope that resolving the issue would be to fix the sploits at hand, not segregation.

But you do what you are capable of~

vztz was the first server i rolled on, but ended up here because everybody dual boxes and thats boring, and many people warned me about the hacking/cheating. Most of the community was dumb as well, "Finding a guild before lvl50? lololol gtfo".

I made some suggestions about how server-wide pvp could be implemented here, but seeing what Rog posted, its pretty obvious it would attract those people like flies on shit with the better pop that P99 has =(. At the same time, on VZTZ the xp goes up WAY faster, so maybe that would be a deterrent because it takes so long to build a character, and then get it banned because you got caught cheating would hurt more.

If a way could be found to stop these assholes though, it would be awesome.

We fix the sploits as we find or hear about them. The players exploiting, usually are not keen to turn over their cheats to the server admins. A real PVP server, with no cheaters, that would probably be pretty cool.
