I think a wipe would be good for red. Most PvP MMO's are wiping regularly now. Top-heavy problems are the reason. Longtime players are usually so strong they starve the competition. However, since this is Everquest and progression is very important in PvP/PvE hybrids, I don't think wipes should be frequent on red. Given Red has probably existed for several years, I think a wipe is appropriate. BUT it'd be nice if they warned us ahead of time. Right now, I'm not very confident about playing on Red, since I feel a wipe is a distinct possiblity.

Another idea is to wipe and restart as a team-play server. That'd serve two purposes. It'd wipe the slate clean, regarding the field of play, and it'd encourage new people to try the server. Team-play is inherently better in terms of giving players a safer leveling environment.

But I also think the Play Nice rules should be simplified. Quido is right it should be "hands off". They should either try to make these rules built-in, or try to resovle them indirectly. For example, the leaderboards on live didn't reward you for killing the same player repeatedly. This indirectly discourages something which is normally a Play Nice rule.

Troll or potato?
