Net loss.

We're all nerds playing an old beaten non-classic game. It's not about pixels anymore imo. It's about enjoying the game with people you like and treating other people fairly and with respect. Detoxx has always been an epicenter for people who don't seem to follow those ideals.
True on that last front regarding it being about enjoying the game. At least, it should be. That being said, I think it's important to give second and third chances versus denying someone because they've done bad things in the past. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, right?

I play on both, and raid on both. Literally every single thing about the endgame/raid scene is ten times more fun and interesting on blue than on green even on a bad day. Its no contest.

^^^^ agree with this 100%, socking just Naggy/Vox/CT/Inny is madness. Kunark will be a lot of fun though and add more things to the menu and another true Competitive raid zone in VP instead of just fear.

I understand and "can't blame you" but...~~~rAiDiNg~~~ on p99 isn't even EQ anymore. "Classic" EQ was never about "end game," it was always about "the game." My question is largely rhetorical.

Its really amazing to me how many people are still going hard on a 10-year-old box. What's even more amazing to me is how many of these "characters" actually tried to roll Green then....went right on back to blue to do the same dumb ~~~~rAiD~~~~ shit.

I remember TwoChain in Green EC getting lvls on day one in /ooc and he just couldn't help but let everyone constantly know how much Blue dragon loot he had and how much he missed it. I knew that day he would eventually quit because the truth is (and this is true for many players currently "going hard" on Green) most people on p99 don't actually don't even -like- classic EQ.

I don't even know him and don't mean to make this into a jab but this is an easy example of the comedy of the "characters" that have been going hard on Blue for damn near a decade. Like...we're still talking about...Detoxx? rofl

Anyways, shit's just funny to me. People can continue to play the game "how they want" and I'll continue to chuckle about it lol

Also, by the way Teppler is the world champion record holder for most times deleveled 60 to 59 and back - - - he held this title years before everyone was ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~rAiDiNg~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ and people were still working on getting maybe their second toon to 60.

Shit was absolutely hilarious btw lol
