Now that i've pointed out that you typed this, I'm sure youll go back and edit to fix it, but for the record folks, that was in his post/is currently in his post.

And you're right, you don't think, and you never will.

First off, you're making assumptions. Many of them. You assume you know what people want. You don't. If you want these things, go make your own server.

Second, you make multiple references to "the original developers intent". I'd like to know just when you sat down with them and asked them what that was. I promise you it wasn't to make a D&D clone, or they would have done that in MMO form. It had been done before in MUDS. Stop thinking you know what people want, what the devs wanted, what the P99 devs want. If you don't like these things, gtfo.

Third, this server is an EQ Classic server. That means things that were present in EQ Classic, are present here. Yes, this includes many bugs/changes that are both for and against us. Hybrid XP penalties were removed in Velious. As is the pet taking half your xp thing. Both are implemented here. Neither are enjoyable, but they are Classic. You simply do not know what you are talking about.

Fourth, your history section was kind of neat, but something I believe most people already knew about. Also, it was a shitty way to try and draw people in and make them interested in what you have to say only to follow it up with your stupid 'i want the server to be *this* way' agenda. You've posted it before. You made a thread on powerleveling, only to be shot down and decide to dress it up and post it again. Stop. We don't want to hear it anymore.

Fifth, just to be clear, since you're so hell bent on cramming it down our throats (and im only going to say this once, so listen carefuly): MAKING IT SO YOU DONT GET XP FROM MOBS TWICE YOUR LEVEL OR HIGHER WOULD NOT STOP PEOPLE FROM POWERLEVELING. This is probably the dumbest solution I've ever heard. people would just kill mobs one level below that limit. Or 5 level below that limit, since at lvl 20 you could still get powerlevel'd on lvl 35 mobs. Smart.

And lastly, stop making these threads. We get it. You don't like these 'gamebreaking' issues. If you dont like it so much, leave. Frankly, I'm pretty disgusted that you wrote this long history of RPG's, left a bunch of stuff out but still had some decent things to say, but it was all so you could simply cram your agenda down our throats again. An agenda that most of us think is stupid. I should have known that was the point of this thread when I saw the author was you, but I honestly didn't look.

All that being said, I know you're just trying to help, but I really only have one thought to leave you with: Fuck off.
