Red being easier to GM?

Crenshinabon · #1 10-23-2011, 09:30 PM

So I have heard in the past that pvp servers take a lot to GM.
After reading the tons of disputes between guilds ksing eachother, trains, etc I just got to thinking. Isn't Red actually EASIER to GM? Shit happens and its more like, just resolve it yourselves and try to pvp over the spawns. The only thing I could think that would be annoying to GM in a pvp server would be trains. But that is on blue anyways.

Just seems like EQ pvp server would be a lot more fun to develop and grow due to the community being able to resolve their own issues over pvp and guildwars unlike blue servers can do.

Discuss.

It should be easier as long as there isnt a ton of rules

Its mostly automated so yea.

Nulls post about someone talking about policing trains. Not sure what it exactly means but sounds like some hard coded stuff to stop/mitigate trains?

its easy to manage unless you get petitions from angry wolves claiming xantille/mq/dupes/server

I may be wrong, but I think if you get around 25ish+ mobs on you, you're client will shut down.

There will be less first to engage disputes. There will be more putting in a million "I hate this server and you guys suck at being GMs" QQ petitions that shouldn't get answers. I hope the staff makes it clear what they will and will not respond to :P. People are gonna get all kinds of upset.

Seems like there is 10x as much hate on red servers and people petitioning over drama. On TZ most of the petitions were about hacking and training. I imagine these GM's doing more about it than TZ though, it seemed like they stopped responding to petitions completely.

I tested out a blue server and couldn't believe how courteous people were, it sucked.
