Hmmm... this seems like another limp dick post from Yendor.
Please help me understand how supposedly wanting a competitive raid environment is congruent with preventing aforementioned competition so one's guild can keep getting free welfare dragons in VP, Jeremy.

No, I'm saying Seal Team does. I'm not the one in the guild still trying to monopolize VP key pieces to keep their precious uncontested VP dragons.

Blue had a good run as a competition server for you and your ilk for what, 10 years... time for the rest of us to enjoy a rotation server and see how that goes for a few years.

monopolize key pieces? i think the "competition" actually tried twice out of what 30 traks? what's so hard to understand that you don't simply GET access to VP just for being on the server. you have to earn your VP keys. noone is locking you out. spend the time to win trak, profit. It's really that simple.

If you feel that is a lockout maybe try a TLP.

wtf "earn your VP keys".

This is a video game not the military, dude.

90% of us are here to relax and have some fun, except of a subset of sociopaths that keep turning every damn P99 server into the Olympics of Autism.

Who the fuck are YOU to tell everyone else that the only way we are getting pixels is to build a 200-person raid force with toons parked everywhere and stand by at a batphone 24/7, and that's the barrier to entry to be able to raid? That is not your decision to make. That is not Seal Team's decision to make and impose on everyone else that also plays on the box. It never was.

The devs already had one server like that for the last 11-12 years. There is plenty of evidence that some classic servers had rotations and had a peaceful raid scene. It would be nice if they could be compelled to not go that same route every time they open a new server like this.

However, I understand that they want it to be like this and it's their prerogative to establish, much to the chagrin of GMs/Guides who have to deal with all the fallout from a handful of petulant children with pixel lust.

Well i guess the other way to get pixels on this server that works is to cry about not seeing content and complain about how classic EQ is to hard. Seems like it is working. I however like many came here because p99 boasted true classic EQ. Whats happened from the start of green because of people like you and other non classic enablers through loot lists, game changing item nerfs and the like is far from classic.And this is just another step in the wrong direction. Try a TLP. please. And leave the classic green progression server alone. You have damaged it enough already.

You can't put the genie back in the bottle idiot. There can never be a 'true classic experience' because we have years and years of information. Blue was way closer to classic than green, not because of any server rules but because there wasn't the level of information readily accessible there is now. You had to read through ZAM forum posts and wayback machine shit if you wanted to find out how things worked. Now we have a well stocked wiki for much of that information, not to mention personal information people had playing 10 years on blue. So stfu about 'classic'. Classic is gone, people come here to have fun and I don't think most people enjoy the lawyer-quest elf-court side of this shit. So any rule that makes for less elf-court is a good rule. ST being gone means sooooo much less elf-court, I might even come back and play.

Granted, I think banning a few choice people over the course of the last year would have been much better way to have dealt with ST. There are plenty of chill folk over there. Still, I'm not gonna lose sleep over them. They chose to hang with douchebags and these are the consequences.

"I dedicate my whole life to this video game, therefore I deserve everything more than everybody else. If other people want to see content and loot, they too will quit their jobs and ignore their families." This is literally your argument.

Not to mention the fact that the "hard work" you mentioned is mostly just sitting around waiting, camping spawns or being "on call" to a video game like its a job. Your life situation is unhealthy for an adult and you are mad at the game for not supporting it.

You get pixel by beating the content, during classic era that race thing was pretty much non existent, this mario kart non sense only happens on this server.

Let alone 100 no lifer login in at 2am within 2min of a batphone blocking any fair races.
