Server PVE Wipe?

[andromax]

This is a terrible idea, poopsockers will be poopsockers and they will end up right back where they were because you wont play 1/10 of what they will.

Server wipe would accomplish nothing.

So whats gonna change if they wipe it clean. Everyone that still plays hardcore will do the same thing and in 6 months all the casuals will be complaining about the exact same things.

I suppose. It still irks me that apparently people think it's acceptable to just show up and go "hey, this is cool what you guys have going, but how about we get rid of a few years' worth of player history so I can experience this the way I want." It's just selfish.

Also, +10 for the Bobcats.

Why aren't people allowed to have an opinion on how they want to experience this game?

Clean slate is meaningless without reversal of so many non-classic class nerfs, a fix to non classic ac, and not continuing to let non classic charm duration run rampant.

Don't confuse the act of pointing out how selfish an opinion is with the act of denying the right to have an opinion to a group of people. They're radically different statements.

It can be your opinion that the server should be wiped. Fine. I get that some people don't possess the basic reasoning required to identify how that indiscriminately fucks over those of us who've invested a lot of time into legitimately building a useful character.

I'm reminded of a gem of a passage from a book in the Ender's Game series, where it is stated that voicing something stupid is actually beneficial; to keep quiet is to hold on to your stupidity, to embrace it. Voicing it allows for the opportunity for someone to correct it and show error in one's ways.

So, state your opinion - and rest assured I'll be hanging around to point out again and again how shortsighted, selfish and idiotic you have to be to harbor an opinion like that.

The best times on this server were definitely within the first few months. Was so much fun playing with ONLY fresh characters, crawling through every doable dungeon just to get every scrap of gear that I could find. For a very short time the server actually felt like classic EQ but with global chat, I am so glad that I got to take part in it.

All you new people should just take solace in the fact that some of us got to experience it, and that we still love our DE masks and manastones.

It's not always stupid opinions, people just have a lot of varying experiences and desires.

I haven't lobbied or voted but I wouldn't mind a server wipe so much. Your accomplishments mean nothing to me. I play this game for my enjoyment and I think I could have a lot of fun rerolling a new toon with the rest of the server and might even try to get involved with high level guild stuff if that were to happen.
