Red Server Changes

[Kazi]

I am a huge fan of the move to ban people who shit all over everything, but banning people for criticizing staff decisions? Is this a bannable post?

As for the xp change, I know the only reason I started on red is because of it. I know this reasoning extends to many others. I just don't get it.

What happened to your group exp bonus?

For right now, that is being looked into. A % modifier per group member being added is a likely scenario, as well as an overall change to the scaling modifier (either changing the scale to 1-60, or setting it as a static % bonus from 1-60).

I don't want to make any time-line promises, or even any guarantees that these changes will be implemented. Just letting you guys know it's possible.

Wonder who will be bant first?

Nothing good will come from removing the xp modifier 50-60. Not a criticism, merely an observation.

That aside, I love the changes that have been made. They're something quite a few of us argued for before the box even came up. It's also nice to see some guilds are being extremely proactive in removing the toxins.

Thanks to all of you for your hard work and effort!

Why would you nerf exp up front and then "look into" modifying group exp when your original goal was to promote grouping?

Considering you keep calling the previous exp modifier on this server insane, I think it's fair to say you just wanted exp nerfed.

So congrats, I guess. Exp is nerfed.

Whats the point of that though if devs cant read us debate the changes that are implemented on the server?

Ok ill be a little gentle for the sake of being constructive.

Maybe "criticizing staff decisions" is the wrong choice of words?

As a newb here, the xp mod sucks... knowing all the people who got to enjoy it, and all the banned players who got to recycle through... but whatever, I'll make do... I mean... now it's like blue but without all my pixels and cash and people to play with... and the twinks can savagely cornhole me when they find me lol... but whatever, it's classic right?


All fuss aside, as a new guy, the only suggestion I have for staff is to alter server wide ooc... for the love of god... please, make a trash talk/lvl 50+ chat or something? That ooc is absurd and while suitable to trash talking ex-mechanics like myself who swear without knowing they are doing it... the fact is even I find it absurd and annoying. Either make a separate 50+ channel or trash talk channel, or make a separate trade channel please so I can turn that garbage off and still buy/sell?

I am pretty sure the server ooc on red breaks ever chat rule ever made in any online community ever. It's like WoW barrens chat got drunk with a 1990's AIM chat and had an illegitimate chat baby. Please, kill it with fire.

Elsewise, loving the experience... missing my blue pixels but haven't logged back since... now that I can't xp at all we shall see lol...

Pras GM's anyways though for support old ass elf sim so I can relive that last of life before I had to grow up and be an adult. Yay childhood relapse!
