That's not what happened at all, Kental. Both myself AND another member of the group specifically said we were leaving and getting a port to EJ. We just hadn't dropped group yet and the rest of you decided to pull after we left. Your own fault, not mine. I absolutely never said "you suck" and purposefully let you die and then left either. Don't twist your own mistake into being angry and blaming me.

As for the fungal regen, I asked you calmly not to put it on me two separate times. You continued to do it, at which point I spammed group chat since that seemed to be the only way to get you to listen. I didn't want it on me because I was trying to root park and the slow movement means a bigger chance of me getting as I try to move out of melee range, in addition to causing other movement problems. When I'm trying to click on targets and cast spells I really don't want to waste the time to click off fungal regen, no. And the time that it takes me to click it off can mean the difference between living and dying, especially if I'm holding down right mouse cursor while moving and having to click over to my buff/debuff boxes accidentally causes the game camera to spin all over the place.

Funny how I never have any problems when grouping with Divinity or Ascension.

No I haven't. Please point to one thing. Just empty words here. If there is something I don't understand then I will say so. But all of the matters I talk about with authority are things I very clearly know about.

Actually everybody doesn't. That's why there are specifically messages and posts all the time in this vein. Even if many people do know what to do (duh, I'm hardly the only one who played back in the day), that's irrelevant to my ideas of actually making the game better.

Zuranthium, the negative experiences with you just keep coming in. You remind me of Chantel, and everyone was dead on the money about him.

Is there any other explanation for the sheer volume of bad stories people have involving you? I mean either it's you or all of them who are the bad players right?

I heard Chantel is now a wizard. Good thing nobody groups with them.

Which are moot because?.......C'mon, you know the answer to this.

Level 12 to Level 16 as a Necro = West Freeport. Generates the best money you can make at that point in the game, if you care about that. Of course, I'm being purposefully vague about what to camp.
Here you make the horrid assumption that people enjoy having their time wasted by incredibly vague answers. Oh you were expecting a quote involving an error in your address the game itself? Welcome to MMO's. People are a part of them. Though, seeing as you're kind of an asperger's patient, I guess we have to let this one slide. Being helpful, and not someone's misguided dad, is kinda paramount to a welcoming MMO community. But you knew that, right?

I have much to say about class balance. [...]
This entire post about class balance (you remember this horrendous thread, right?) made people's head's explode. It must take some serious cognitive dissonance to initiate a useless circle jerking of ideas that will never see the light of day on this, or even any other server.

Unless, of course, you are one of these classic extremists that starts posts on the forums imagining this is the SOE boards and you're posting where devs can see, day dreaming of a patch with your idea in it. In which case your dedication deserves both strange looks and applause.

Then there's this gem (unverified as it is):

Quote:
I was the MH in his group yesterday and I asked for C, he then tells me "no, you're our healer."
I said, "I know... so how about that C?"
"No."
"Errr... what? C me..."

Happyfeets has left the group.

My first and only group with him.
To which you responded:

Quote:
Uh, no, this is false. If I did say something along those lines then it's because you were someone who was spamming me for Clarity before I grouped with you
Except the original post said he was Main Heals in your group. Way to go.

Wait, West Freeport for best coin 12 - 16 (as a necromancer) Really? No mention of the sisters in OOT? Who's purity belts sell for over 1 plat apiece? Really?

What, are you worried that your evil worshiping self is going to be more KOS in Kelethin than you already are?

It's not moot at all, it's discussion. Doesn't really matter if the developers don't implement anything of the sort on the server, I still want to talk about it. Given that this is a gaming community, specifically one about EQ Classic, it's a good place to talk about such things. If you don't want to talk about it then don't. Plenty of people have been interested in my ideas and/or want to share their own as well.

I never made that assumption, I simply didn't want to give a blatant answer, for the reasons I described in the thread. This also doesn't prove anything about your supposed theory that the EQ-related information I've been talking about has been incorrect. It's merely you disagreeing with my taste.

Only because they didn't want to talk about the subject, which is their own problem. If you don't want to talk about it then don't respond to the thread. Then there were also people who disagreed with what I said because they didn't play in that era and/or don't understand game mechanics, and were aghast at the things I was talking about. It's not that I was wrong about what I spoke of.

Like I said, he was probably a person who was spamming me for Clarity before we grouped together. Then, when he did join my group, I joked with him before we started pulling about how I couldn't Clarity him. He didn't understand the humor.

Everything you just wrote has nothing to do with me "not understanding the game", which was what you tried to claim. It's only a bunch of people whining about me sharing my opinion, or disagreeing with how I play the game (which is very much in the spirit of actual Classic Everquest), or misunderstanding my points, or being angry that something went wrong in-game me taking the time to try and explain to them what I felt they were doing wrong (and thus they can not handle constructive criticism).

I like the part where he left out how people picked him apart for his countless fallacies. Course, he denies the "I never said I was a guru, it was you people!" like he's the victim or something.

The problem is your smug, know-it-all, holier-than-thou attitude. Also, you are talking theoretical class balance and being utterly thick headed about it in Server Discussion "General discussion related to Project 1999 and classic Everquest." (class balance is not related to either of those things, because the changes made to the server are basically set in stone), when it would be better suited in "Off-Topic".

Omfg, Stormhowl, I just noticed you're in Pak'Cafan. I was in Pak'Cafan in DAoC back on Galahad in the old days. What's up my gay brutha from anotha mutha?
