After reading that post I do understand you SZ guys better, but I still don't get your whole segregationist attitudes. The whole mentality of "if you're not SZ your shit" is horribly destroying what friends you have outside of the "SZ" clique.

Not all of us. I played RZ too... I just preferred the SZ rules. The team aspect mainly...because it was probably the #1 incentive to group. You couldn't attack or kill peeps on your team, so you could PvE without worrying about your "friends" popping ya when you won the roll on that uber item.

Zone control was fun too.

I also don't recall level restrictions on who you could kill. You wouldn't gain any honor or kill points or whatever they were if they were x levels below you (i.e. grey?).

I think you could get sigs...and range for sigs was +/- 5 levels iirc. I think you got kill points too...but you didn't gain any if the toon was -20...negative points came into play too, but I don't remember them from up...I think these things were patched in as time went on.

oops, gaped there on the instancing, must have been thinking of extra keyed zones or something....

kill points came much later, after my time. Sony did publish kills daily on some website though.

early on sigs could be traded for corpse summoning potions (a good trade existed of people taking those to stormhammer iir and filtering them into the main servers) If you were in level range you would get a sig and make the other person lose exp. I think coin loot was also in level range iir.

I noticed the cheating (on my team as well) since I lead an early good team raiding guild. Had to deal with a lot of drama :/

edit in: not every one cheated. I never did. I kicked anyone out of my guild who did, and didn't group with anyone who did (I am sure some people hid it from me though)
