I do paint my picture of what needs to be fixed with a very broad stroke.
There's PvE fixes that should exist like Hoshkar and CT not quadding when they have 2 weapons on their loot table. And, for the "must make it perfect fanatic", dragons and other non humanoids shouldn't show slash/crush/pierce based on what they have either.
It's just very unsettling to see that of all the nuances and little things that someone needed to keep up with regarding Null's resist implementation that a PvE fix was way at the top of the list... one that really only benefits one group than the good of the server.
Red99 was a very rough playground, and many people went into it with a kill kill kill mentality. If you were a solo player, it was hard. If you were a solo player and rolled a melee, you were just naive. But EQ PvP (and how all PvP really is) is about getting your come-uppins as a new player. Some people had very thin skin and thought there was some kind of code of chivalry to be followed.
I've played on blue (more than you realize) and there's a very thin skinned mentality when it comes to disputes. Everything is an outrage if you so happen to miff someone. Well, if you're one of those people, you were just headed for a nervous break down here.
And the lack of play style! Twinks murdering! Exactly! This is what item loot cures. You can log in and try your hand at pvping for items without being in a raid guild. It's something you look forward to logging in and doing. And, of course, the bigger the game you chase, the bigger the score.
