VZ/TZ people (well most of them) had no intention to play fairly. Winning and griefing was their only objective. It is funny that people come down on admins for being lenient or giving people chances. You did give them chances and the people continued to cheat and got themselves banned. My issue, well more than an annoyance than really an issue really, is all the people trying to sell manastones and other high end gear. Especially considering that there are only an average of 25 people on the server at any one time. Obviously exploiting was involved and gear has found its way into accounts that did not get banned. Such a thing does not really affect my character as he is just starting out on the server and a few people have been very helpful.

PLing is not against the game rules but with hot spots as they are now it is possible to use phones to connect a computer, giving it a different IP, thus 2 boxing. Obviously the Admins wanted r99 to work but considering the people that harrassed the forums it was doomed.

I enjoy EQ the game and I am enjoying r99. I've played a Bard, a Mage, a Rogue, a Ranger and an Enchanter to different levels. I find it incorrigible that people sell gear they know was gotten through cheating and many of these same people still give props to people who were banned. I know this game well and gear does make a difference when people of equal skill meet in PvP. I listen to the OOC chat. The guys that talk smack about how good they are have had to flee. Blaming their deaths on lag, guards assisting, being outnumbered oh the list is pretty long. Then bitch about the xp loss as their corpse gets camped by bluebies who are pretty pissed and just returning the favor. The difference is that bluebies tend to enjoy this game for what it is and are still around. Perhaps we will always be.
