Its rich that someone that played a shaman, and abused a broken spawn, still thought the xp was too hard.

The insignificant xp loss on pvp death reduced mindless bind zerg rushing.

Some people just can't handle classic xp I guess.
I was working at the same time, /shrug.

I could handle it, i leveled to 60. Through all the grief gank trains. Its all the casuals that quit before they could get a foot in and enjoy themselves.

The xp loss was massive, to the point where, like i said, nobody wanted to even try challenging Nihilum in Fear, not even one go. I wanted to do it at least a couple of times, for fun. I cant remember which crew i was with at the time but everyone was basically "why try, theres only xp loss in it for us". And i can understand why. I can remember one time me Andis and a couple of guys tried it.

It doesnt matter if thats how you maintain your fragile male ego that you think youre a real man for pvping through xp loss (im guessing you were on the easy train either on holo at the start or nihilum after, whichever side was dominating atm) the fact is thats how the server was depopulated and it never really recovered.

It was a totally different vibe from Rallos, which had constant pvp in the newb zones, newbs chasing twinks for a chance at a piece of gear and what made it fun.
