Look, another insurmountably retarded comment and jaybone is the author.

I really like this word today.

is it a guild requirement that to be in the a-team you have to be a forum troll? seems there's a lot of you on here

perhaps its part of that whole 'doing more with less' thing

We aren't trolling. There are just a lot of us (not drumas, of course) in the guild who put a lot of thought and effort into accomplishing what we have on the server, so threads about deleting all of our hard-earned plat or wiping the server or whining about how every level 20 melee can't afford a fungi (or specifically in jaybone's case, insinuating that I RMTed to get my wealth on the server) tend to agitate some of us.

But that said, WIPE THE PLAT!

pfff, threads stupid

you dont need to run in here and defend against a server wipe of plat, it aint happening

but proportionally, for a guild, there seem to be more a-team members that feel the need to comment on every subject, and in the most obnoxious way possible

Commenting on things in a forum? Madness!

You make it really difficult to maintain a positive demeanor when you come in here blasting us for calling this out as a stupid idea, and then doing the exact same thing yourself.

The quote of mine in your post above? That was my response to someone blasting a guild-mate out of the blue. And I'm the bad guy?

Your confirmation bias is certainly showing. Good day to you.

I'm brand new to P99 and it seems like alot of stuff is very expensive, even for just low gear. My options are either get a lucky drop or farm bone chips for quite a while to be able to afford just 1 item that's sold at EC. lol

Bone chips inflated IMO. Ban for bone chip laundering. Then delete all bone chips.

It seems to me everyone is complaining about not having sweet loot when they are level 20-30. I didn't have shit back when I played live, except a few items people gave me. Everyone is complaining that people who have high end items are greedy, when in reality they have been playing this for years and earned what they have. Everyone wanting resets or bitching about items prices seem to be the greedy ones. You all want something for near nothing.

Shits classic. Listen to this gnome.

This is insurmountably stupid. Because of that, no amount of discussion is going to force this to happen.

Insurmountably.

The problem for new people is the amount of twinks present on this server. They group with people who have 100k+ worth of gear, meanwhile they are wearing banded and swinging a green jade broadsword.

But, this is what happens when you show up late in the game.

I call this "poor proxy", say you live in a 400k McMansion in Kentucky. Badass!

Now move same McMansion to Dubais. Wtf I'm so poor! I Demand equality!

Maybe you're missing the fact that high end items costing a lot means when you win a roll on that nice item, you sell it for a lot. So yeah, the server has been around for quite some time and there is certainly far more plat on the server than there was at this point in Live. The thing is though... it doesn't matter. It's all relative. As the value of items goes up, player's average incomes go up. You can make far more plat on here with your time than you could at this point in time on live. It still seems that the low-end gear is appropriately priced and sure, 100pp isn't going to matter to those with much more wealth. It will matter to those who needs a suit of bronze. It's the law of diminishing marginal utility and you can't stop that train!!

Fuck bitches, get levels. Delete all bitches.

- You will have people who are going to give you stuff.
- If you're playing a melee character you've been warned it will be difficult to gear up at first.
- Gear is not really required to progress. It makes it faster but not super necessary.

In addition there are paths you can take, incremental steps if you will, that bridge the gap between bone chips and fungus tunics. No one was rich on day one and if you spend your time learning about appropriate classes and free things, you will find a way to gear out at a good pace.

Ceremonial Iksar for example.

Almost all of us that have been here for a couple years+ started with nothing and leveled our first characters with whatever we could scrounge up. I don't think I bought a piece of gear on my first character until into my 20's and it was maybe 100pp. If you don't have that kind of money by your mid-late 20's, you're doing it wrong. You have to put in the work farming bone chips, light stones, spiderling silk, pelts, etc. You won't get rich off it but it works great for starting out at the lower levels to get spells and gear upgrades and then you just need to level. Hell, most people give away items worth 200pp+ if you're in EC long enough. It just seems like a lot of low level complaints lately about not getting gear ... socialist 'merica mentality anyone?
