This....
For all the people that feels entitled to everything on the server: People who clock more mileage gets more stuff just like in RL. You may feel entitled to get a million bucks in RL but your not gonna get it unless you do something about it. It's really not that hard to understand.

Not true. There are some people that "clock more mileage" and see nothing in return for their efforts. That is the REAL WORLD...this IS A FUCKING GAME. You are forced to deal with RL, people play Everquest for ENJOYMENT.
That is possibly why you fail to grasp the reality of the problem.

To the GM/Dev Team: I still feel extremely grateful this project was started up despite all the drama happening at the moment. That said however, what are you guys really afraid of if you let the server run as a free market? Trains? KS? Sure there will be a shit ton of whine about it for the parties involved but at the end of the day server will go on. A balance will finally be achieved one way or another WITHOUT your guiding hand on the matter.

Right on man..because Anarchy without any final authority seems to have worked well in the past. You are either to young or too stupid to understand the amount of drama/problems that would infect P1999.

The raiding game only affects a small part of the community (just like it was on live). I dare say that average joe leveling up in oasis will not get affected by the shitstorm happening in vox's lair with 3 guilds trying to outdps each other. We don't know how a free market system will be without even trying it.

Are you half-asleep? EVERYONE makes it to 50 at some point. After that the only thing left is to RAID! People are not leveling up just to stand back and spectate the end-game content. They want to participate and be involved. Thus why you have guilds and social networks of players.

You keep telling us to grow up and fix our problems, that your too busy to deal with this kind of childish issues. Yet you guys were the ones that decided that you will take an active hand on these issues when you enforced the first rotation between IB and Trans. Look at what's happened since then.
|
Seems to me that when the rotation was in place the only ones complaining was IB. Due to their GREED. The server was quite restive and having other guilds added to that rotation was sure to bring stability for a long time. While i did not agree with the execute of the rotation i felt that it offered stability. Something we do not have now.

IB beats Trans consistently on boss. Trans petitions that this sucks and we want stuff too. Gm LISTENS (key part) sets PRECEDENT (another key part) to do something about it. Right then and there you could have easily said : "Is this a bug? Did the server crash? Sorry not my problem.. we're busy with game coding stuff not what you can raid."
|
Lets rephrase...IB wants to dominate the server and take everything for themselves. Trans does not want to spend all their time trying to dominate 10 year old content they want to just play the game and get along.
You forget the fundamental reasons why p1999 was even created to start with. It was not created for IB it was created to relive the classic Everquest experience.

From that point on, everyone knew that if you send enough petitions/mail to the GM staff that something WILL happen to the issue.
1. Trans losing = rotation
2. 3rd guild wanting to get in on rotation + IB whining about more guilds on rotation = Time variance
3. Inny ganked by X guild = petition by other guild to get something done on the matter.
4. Have a problem? Petition....
5. Camping sucks? Petition....
Seriously, we're not all savages. Sure there's always going to be genuine little dipshits (just like in RL), but for the most part I don't think the p99 world will end in a pile of shit (in a free system). Compromises are born out of respect, right now there is none between the guilds that are feuding over this matter. Let it go free for a month or two and see how bad things will get. You may be surprised at the result.

You got this huge chip on your shoulder. That somehow Trans or the server is out to get you. The server population wants IB to see that a place that you work with one another is better served than by leaving up someone
FD in PoH/PoF/Naggy Lair/Vox with MQ2 running to send out text notification when a boss spawns.
Just keep going with what your doing. I have seen the DA roster it is full of old Trans people. People that decided they wanted to fight it out instead of "going casual". I applaud it and i wish i had more time to help but i dont.
Until you change your attitude it will continue.
