No, the community here is really no different than any other MMO. The way the community acts is a product of the kind of system we have. EQ is a difficult (compared to most MMOs) game with high punishment for death, and so breeds some of that elitism into the community. In addition, Red has no teams built in, meaning people get stabbed in the back. Finally, since there's no instancing and the bosses don't respawn quick, not everyone can get to the content they'd like to see. And there are some other problems like leaderboard, plugging, AoN (the N doesn't stand for Necropotence), RMT, etc.

Our administration has fixed most of the big things. We have consistent server up uptime and very good anti-RMT, anti-cheating, and anti-boxing measures. This is why our community is actually better than the current prog servers, even though we're red.

So no, community ain't too bad and certainly isn't "the problem."
Agreed.

I know that the playerbase here is mostly adults, i just feel that a large portion present themselves to be somewhat immature. For example the constant barrage of racism and insults. I doubt that those guys are actually racist or hateful in their daily lives but seem to think it's trendy or cool to be so in game.

Our community presents itself to new players as childish and i feel it turns them away.

Now now boys.

The duke was very generous towards Red Dawn giving high profile targets such as VS and deliberately contesting Azrael to ensure Red Dawn got targets and weren't destroyed by Azrael for those targets. To this day that generosity was without precedent and has not been topped by any other guild.

While there was monopolising for a big chunk of time, which is unhealthy, there was also some good moments.

The duke also took players like Saphia under his wing, while other players in top guilds send her harassing messages and threats that would ultimately deserve a curb-stomp if they had verbally communicated this shit in person.

I got nothing but love for the Duke, now having seen and contributed to all factions on this box.

^ delusional

literally years of domination by "the duke." nihilum was the absolute worst and longest offender of this.

just in, your beloved "duke" is perma banned for being proven to do the kind of shit you blame top empire members for without evidence (and without perma ban)

how can you be so hypocritical? are... you... . .. syft?

The permaban was due to lackluster evidence of him 'leading' a guild. His first round of bans were for selling a Green Scale to Sektors, but lets face it this wasn't an isolated incident regarding buying/selling on this box and there has been way more RMT to date with transactions numbering in the 1000s of dollars, which make Nizzar look like a small fish out of water flopping around.

just making a point about the guild domination. you're right about one thing: the server is conducive to it

aint no way im taking you seriously if you're defending nihilum and posting the things you do about emp

regarding current rmt, prof? also 1 green scale was caught.. i saw the kingslayer's video. nizzar seemed pretty open to the whole thing. let's face it, this wasn't an isolated incident.

Considering your regular condemnation of Empire, this is really embarrassing to read.

That's my point, pot kettle black.

Empire is worse than Nihilum as a guild, but here you are.

Remember the original guild: Holocaust was disbanded by staff for breaking server rules in the past or has everyone suddenly suffered from amnesia?
