Have you no idea what repetition compulsion is man? You just tried to argue that p99 should not exist in the first place.
That is a perfect example of a classic Bill O'Reilly tactic of taking a suggestion and carrying it out to its logical or fanatical extreme.

Now it should go without saying that it is common sense regarding the difference between aged progression and quitting (as EQ live experienced, changed completely, and then for most of us ended), and an abrupt reset caused by any numerous and usually negative circumstances (I.E. this one).

I'm hoping I don't have to explain the vast differences in circumstances to you and why each reason is different and why an individual may want to start new on an emulated server after having played for years on live which has morphed into an entirely new game rather than being on an emulated server they have already transferred to and having their items/time/etc wiped.

No, a wipe + FTE enforcement wouldn't be a good idea because its not practical in the first place and FTE is a poor system which has historically failed us and continues to do so. If you think FTE is the only thing keeping people in line (which is a joke, most people have auto-fire keyboards/programs that they get away with), you've forgetting the slew of other ridiculous shit that happens at the raid level scene such as training, leap frogging, sabotaging spawns under the guise of doing an epic, etc.

Your two fold argument is not a good one and resetting the server will only serve to kill it.
