This might be off topic, but after 30 pages I think it's fine.

Im not sure if i should be optimistic or not.
Sirken says xp loss is getting looked into but at the same time keeps saying if i want a server like Rallos, i should look into another game.
I hope they take the time to read the input i provided as i took the time to try to project what a server i would really enjoy playing on looks like, and its not a hard tweak to do.
Sirken is really off the mark with his "no purpose to pvping for nothing", theres a reason why zones like Blackburrow and Crushbone were always buzzing with pvp activity on Rallos, because it was pure fun. You have to stop seeing this as griefing that will make people quit the server, its the opposite. People will be trippin balls, smoking bowls having fun pvping all nite on their alts and shit. < Shit's classic.
You guys should just forget this "Whatever goes in, stays" stuff IMO. We can take 2 weeks off completely removing xp loss as a trial basis to see if everybody is enjoying themselves more. I would announce a 2 week trial period with a temporary xp bonus and watch the population skyrocket as word to mouth spreads about how fun the server has become. Id go play my lowbie wiz on the side and ally with non-geared new fishes and play an anti-pk white knight type alt to help em crush twink griefers.
I havent played in a month but the minute i see a post that xp loss has been patched im logging back in.

Tradesonred, are you 50+? You keep talking about bindrushing in CB. Don't get me wrong, it was tons of fun and very classic (I think because so many people new to the servers had yet to learn the player-enforced rules of the servers yet), but it doesn't feel very relevant to this server. With population the way it is, it seems there's only ever the fungi twink wandering around in there by himself. I think as the server is so top-heavy, when people think of bindrushing they're not thinking about CB PvP between level 10s. They're thinking about contested camps where good items drop, and raids. Bindrushing was awesome in CB when you were new to EQ, but a big nuisance in high level EQ.
Did you experience much bindrushing beyond level 20, and if so do you think it was a good thing?
