It was not fine. Im guessing you didnt start playing before late Kunark so you dont know the rule set was changed, drastically, mid-Kunark. I had to scream and shout on the forums for like 1.5 years before they changed it and by then pop had dropped from 600 at launch to single digit at nite.

I agree that just a simple reset would probably bring back something like 300+ players (probably more, at least for the first launch weeks) and if we are lucky like what happened to a camelot server and a popular streamer brought in 1k+ who knows what kind of pop it could bring.

Unless you can define what you are talking about i might add you to ignore as to not waste time on reading that kind of lazy drive-by ill-tought posts instead of fine walls of text like Gustoo just provided the forums with.

Tradesonred - yeah it is fun to try to kill twinks. Bagging isn't a problem tho if twinks start bagging everyone can start laughing. The most important subforum of this board doesn't exist which is "shameful pvp" which should be lots of screen shots of ogre PK's becoming progressively more naked as they flee through faydark.
I dunno, for me i dont care. I would probably have fun trying to recreate a bad martigan type SK. Shiiiiit were old i cant even link an article about who bad martigan is, disappeared off the internet. SK troll on Sullon or Rallos who would run around butt naked and rack up kills. I bet half the forums dont know who Mad Martigan is either.

Thats why reputation of being a PK vs Anti PK mattered on rallos zek and never happened on Red 1.0. It isn't just because the "meta" is different now. It is because on rallos zek you wanted to know who you could trust to wear decent armor around, and you always kept track of the people who you couldn't, forever.
Id totally main an anti-pk on an anti-pk guild on 2.0 with item loot, helping newbs etc... and yeah i had a pen and piece of paper next to me so i could write down the name of guilds and players who engaged me. I fell in quite easily within the anti-pk style of play because i like to pvp and after a week you had a list long like your arm of guilds and players you could KoS so youd never run out of pvp targets.

Its also why i like FFA more than teams, its organic. Guilds can be shuffled, alliances made etc... on teams if a team starts getting overwhelming advantage, server is done, unless you theorycraft the shit out of how youre going to prevent that prior to lauching the server.
