If that's what you want to believe, go for it.

There is no place for PVP in EQ besides fun. It is terribly imbalanced. Itemization is not designed with it in mind. etc. etc. So being "good" at something that is broken, is moot. It's a monumental farce on real pvp.

How many times do we have to say it?

so yeah, people who pvp AND do raid content are superior, period.
I have a job and I like to come home and relax and play a little EQ. It's difficult enough to get a group and find a XP spot or get a loot camp as it is, without the extra concern of some MQ-using cheater ganking me or the group's healer at an inopportune moment. Or finally getting to raid Fear and spending a bunch of time on the break-in, only to have it ruined by another guild running in and beating the shit out of us and then corpse-camping us. Not my idea of how I would like to spend my time each night, sorry. Does that make me a lesser player? If you say so.

I WOULD JUST PREFER NOT TO SHIT MY PANTS, MOUSELOOK AROUND FRANTICALLY, AND RUN FOR THE ZONE EVERY TIME I ACCIDENTALLY NUKE MYSELF. Is that so wrong?

hahahah its not wrong at all, and i dont blame anybody for not wanting to play like that, im just saying sometimes i do miss it, it was alot more intense, far more challenging, and far more rewarding. do i see it happening here? not at all. i myself dont even have the time it takes to invest in a server like that.

but i can promise you even the smallest victories in that environment trump anything you'll ever accomplish on this server or live. (in regards to the personal "fuck yes" feeling you get)

im just saying to the people going wah wah it was turrible, wahwah any blue guild would have wrecked it if they felt like going there, i call complete and utter bullshit. i just love this thread because its like nostaliga within nostalgia.

Actually, this exact thing happened on SZ. I'll let you do the research so you can come to the realization that you are 100% wrong by yourself.

I think the part about the worst possible personalities is spot on as to why I'm not a fan of EQ PvP - and that comes from someone who was in a guild full of loot whores, drama queens and raging a-type aholes.

I'd be 100% in support of some sort of good pvp solution that ISN'T VZ/TZ server and ISN'T forced pvp. Dueling is retarded, and arena is lame and stupidly out-of-the-way impractical. The Guild-War feature might have some solid potential however.

I as well had the best time I've ever had on any MMO playing on Sullon Zek, on the smallest/worst team, fewest zones "owned" with the biggest challenges to overcome. It was a blast. It was SUPER hard, a REAL challenge. But overcoming the odds and accomplishing already tough things like epics or taking down a tough raid mob despite actual intelligent player based resistance... just awesome.

100% agree with this part of your post... but sadly I feel this is all wishful thinking. Hell I'd even volunteer part time as a guide or something if it'd help. My time on Sullon has forever inspired a deep hatred for the combination of hacks and pvp, so the hammer would come down quick and hard, but I'd be as fair as any guide would ever be. Sadly I have nowhere near the knowledge (or time to invest in learning) to start running something like this myself, but I'd be all about helping if it becomes possible.
