Luclin Models Blocked

[Vorkon]

I don't understand all the vitriol that goes around about this stuff is about, as others have mentioned there are other emu's that give the experience they are looking for, if they disagree so much with the vision that the p99 staff have.

While I use old models because I don't like the Luclin models, it may be hypocritical of me as I also use Duxa for my UI. If they got rid of UI mod's I would likely just adapt to the classic UI that I used forever on live. These changes don't make or break the server for me. The community is on par with what I experienced on live, which is why I continue to play here as I relive old experience with new people.

Agreed, adapt and overcome or find greener pastures elsewhere. What concerns me is when people do leave and we're left with fewer people on the server to get the same enjoyment level as we've known.

I'd love to see how many of the "models aren't classic" crowd are using aftermarket UI's and tools. Its funny to me how people rarely rag on or care about the insanely unclassic UI's people are running, but mention character models, which only effect the single person using them, and people lose their minds.

I highly doubt you see masses of people leave p99 due to luclin models getting disabled. You'll likely see some people get pissed off and leave no doubt, but the p99 servers would still be loaded with people. People complaining about lack of Luclin and PoP have another option in going to the p2002 emu yet still stay here.

That's a good point. The struggle makes their attachment stronger and less inclined to throw it all away. Irony at its best I guess.

I think most people who get uppity about luclin models are just voicing their opinion about how much they hate them because they think they're ugly. I don't like luclin models either but I don't give a crap if someone else uses them. Unfortunately you're probably right though, hypocrites gonna be hypocrites.

I only care about two things:
1. what displays on my screen, i.e. your luclin halfling models aren't on my screen, so I don't care.
2. exploits/cheats, i.e. the troll/ogre using luclin models to move where they could not using classic models is no different than the troll/ogre using some other resize hack for the same purpose, someday i'll smile and nod when the devs come up with a way to stop the cheating.

:shrug: People who cheat at MMO elf-sims puzzle me, always have, always will.

If you feel this strongly about what settings other people have on their screens on a computer game, I'd strongly recommend taking a break from playing this weekend and have some sex and possible get drunk too. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

As a result, if I wanted that Classic feel, but knew not everyone I interacted with was Classic, it would destroy that immersion.

It seems like your immersion is quite fragile. Do you also require that everyone stays in-character at all times?

I was just giving a hypothetical, hence the word "if".
