1. tried it when it opened got 5 then kept geting killed by same person while trying to recover body.

2. tried again recently and guess what another person just killing me over and over i lost count.

3. I can understand ok you fishing for coin kill me for my possible coin or needing a camp etc. testing if you can beat someone fine. It is PvP server. This person just kept siting by my corpse and killing me every time i came back. i think it was like 8 times in a row. I was like he has to get bored at some point, but nope.

4. why would a player who want to try red want to go through all that again?? no matter how juicy you try to make the experience and "new rules" if your being corpse camped and repeatedly being killed without it being witnessed by staff to correct that behavior then nothing has changed in my opinion.

5. server staff cant be everywhere at once i find it hard to believe that they will be able to stop all misbehavior.

my 2 cents

All you have to say is LnS. It cant be denied. Idk when you tried but this rule is new.

This really doesn't happen anymore. If you call LnS people will always let you loot. There was a time when this wasn't true, but the GMs throw out bans for breaking this rule now and us players take it seriously.

from reading its seem that behavior has to be witness correct ?

or are logs enough?

Screenshots would be enough in many cases, but you don't need them because no one's really stupid enough to break this rule. Did you forget to broadcast "LnS"? You're free game if you don't let them know you're looting and scooting.

If you really want to have fun on this server doing pvp, Dont make an enchanter.

I leveled an enchanter to 51 on Red named Poliwhirl.

Went like 23-1, they're not bad people just need to play better.

Honestly Buellen if someone is going overboard the best thing to do is just log out for 15 minutes then come back and keep grinding.

From my 2 years on red I can say that 98% of the time when you come back from the 15-20 minute break they will be gone.

I can attest to this. Got killed by a Fungi twink, and went to play a match of LoL, came back and he had moved on and continued to exp for hours after that unharassed. While he did stay a groupmate called LNS got his corpse and went about his way while I afk'd

People kill you with twinks cause they enjoy it, but LNS protects you and most dont sit there for hours(keyword most) but either way, the world is large, go somewhere else.

I played on VZTZ before so I'm not completely opposed to EQ PVP, but I quit VZTZ because it was run by corrupt admins and the server was populated by the most toxic and hostile crowd of basement dwelling morons I've ever seen in 15 years of online gaming.

And what a surprise, today they play on red 99.

Buellen · #**140** 05-01-2014, 11:18 AM

Sorry should have clarified my 2 experiences where when first server came up and about 6month to 9 months ago on the second instance.

This two event probably are a good example why i never really came back to red99.

I dont mind PvP even though i am not very good at it. I get beat down so be it I just never understood the fascination some of the (hopefully no longer) community with killing another player when they are not a challenge to you over and over.
