Due to highly accelerated EXP rate(3.5x) I found personally testing my box it's really hard to motivate myself to level from 1 in the noob area, scraping together some coppers, buying a few spells, going back out scraping a few more, buying a couple more spells etc, running back and forth to town wasting a ton of time in not a fun way.

I decided to add back my Boost script, which will auto level people to 20/spells/skills, you can sell your noob robe for 1 malachite, Necros can farm a bone chip etc, Melees will need to be twinked regardless because it's very close to Red99 functionally, you'll be swinging for 8 dmg with your rusty sword. Which is all classic and good.

I just found the early part, with accelerated EXP, and attempting to be an end-heavy PVP box, the very early part doesn't really function and I'm OK with that.

The best part of pvp servers is getting started, scraping gear together, battling darky assassins while trying to xp in crushbone.

Why would you remove that just because high level xp is slow?

Didn't attract people, no ones interested in it, been done before a bunch, and there's other options for grinding. Believe me I'd love some CB/Blackburrow PVP, it's just not possible.

I would fill any PVP niche, but honestly I just don't think I can expect people to grind on my box? Farming gear/doing content is actually fun especially if you can just que up a 60 mage/cleric, or a torpor shaman etc etc, I'm hoping people will get immersed and it will lead to guild vs guild PVP.

I also joined a guild on Red, so I believe in diversifying your EQ portfolio.

Titanium + P99 files is the way I would go if you're a tinfoil hatter, which I am myself and part of the reason I dont play ROT. I get your IP + account name, make an anon account if you care, IP is worthless I can't do anything with it if anything I'll get fucked over lol/why would I want to? I literally don't care about anyone, even the people I've insulted and gotten into it with. I've been around since day 1 Red, Live TZ, I mean it's obvious this isn't a troll to do some scumery, but I understand if people are concerned.

As for Duiks GM comment. I've played through -

Amelinda who banned my guild, Derubael who sold pixels for RL money, Sirken who was a Gongshow friend pocket GM(and banned me), fucken who was that first guy who banned me on blue for causing some ruckus in CT Vanguard or god what was his name I actually liked him.

I mean GM's come and go, Stasis is forever.

My only regret getting Stasis01 forum account banned is I lost my full page list of bans/petitions lol.

We matched our Spells to Red99 exactly, resists/values ripped right from P99 first they are classic, and so people could join us with Red99 client/launcher. It's part of our shtick.
