Very boring server then and not classic. Camps were decided by DPS the first year of Everquest, not lists.

<True Guk Scum> is recruiting! Our goal will be circumventing lists and having OOC and RNF meltdowns on a regular frequency! /s

Thanks devs and project owners for an exciting new nerd playground that I'm sure will bring forth many a salty nerd tear.

I'm pretty sure what wasn't classic was 2000 people vying to obtain 2 items from a game they didn't even know existed yet. Let alone a version of it that would be non-profit managed by a team of volunteers without the overhead to deal with 2000 petitions.

Lists are way for the devs to passively manage what would otherwise be a disaster, not to make you feel better about your stupid idea of the world.

That's going to exist regardless, unless the game code is changed, in such a way as to create a game that's trying to be "what Everquest was originally envisioned as", instead of just copying a 20+ year old code that wasn't sophisticated enough to properly express the intention of the game designers.

No it isn't. If the rule was DPS wins and "kill stealing doesn't exist", then it would already be managed exactly by that. People who want to compete for something can do it, exactly as it was in classic. People who find that method unsatisfying can choose to do nice camps only and exclude the players from their groups who are "kill stealers".

LOL!!! Good thing it's another PVE server...exactly...like...blue. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Any official thoughts on the other server? You know, the red-headed stepchild that you all are ashamed of.
