Convince me to red99

[kylok]

As a bluebie who has recently given it up for red, I can say that the only things that kept me from rolling here sooner were a few small things.

First off the idea of you crazy forum warriors corpse camping me was not appealing at all, with the PnP I'm not worried about this anymore.

Secondly I did roll a toon on RZ back when and was promptly corpse camped by a monk twink with a fungi - instilling a fear of EQ pvp in me that has lasted some 12 years =D.

Lastly the server is pretty empty - this still concerns me some what as I generally enjoy melee classes over casters, but I compromised and rolled a bard.

What brought me here in the first place however, was when I realized that blue is frankly just as "toxic" (I think that's a shitty word but it gets the point across) as red appears to be - at least on the forums. Now that I am here I'm liking it quite a bit. The community is smaller and tighter knit which fosters its own problems but they aren't any worse than the craziness that goes on over at blue. I like the feeling of being a bigger fish in a smaller pond than being the 250th monk with a fungi on blue. The true exciting from coming to red however, is the prospect of feeling like I'm actually getting better at EQ through pvp. I've played this game over and over on many different classes, done most of the end game content and I can safely say I don't know how to play half as well as I thought I did.

So thanks Red99, you made EQ fun again in a way that only pvp could.
