Your assuming item loot will scare away blue players. Could you imagine for a second that item loot might not scare people away? Might even possibly attract more players? they already have a geared out lvl 60 all nice and safe on blue99 why not take a risk on r99? I say people who are comming over from blue p1999 to red99 are looking for change. maybe to take more risk.
But what gives you that impression? That's what I want to know. Those arguing for itemloot seem to think it's for the benefit of everyone. It's for the benefit of those who want itemloot, nobody is denying that, and there are certain merits to itemloot that you don't get without it. What you can't dismiss, however, is that there are similar and arguably more severe problems with itemloot than without it and, much more importantly, the majority is against it. How can you guys ignore that in every discussion? It is beyond me how you can deduce that itemloot will attract more players when you can plainly see that more are against it than for it. I'm not even talking about just the polls and threads in this forum, although that should be enough of an indication. I'm talking about history. VZTZ was more popular without itemloot than with it, and itemloot was removed from every live server that had it because it caused more problems than the benefits it offered. What is it about these facts that gives you the idea that itemloot will make the server more popular, not less popular? I really honestly would like to know. It's completely against the most fundamental logic of the discussion.
