Discussion: Loot and Scoot (LnS)

[Nyrod]

you wont hear this enough because of the vocal minority wanting it, but if you remove server wide pvp yellow txt and server wide /ooc or chat channels you will completely change the social dynamics of everything from shit between end game guilds and between groups or solo players.

sure it happens on the forums but at a millionth the degree it did in game on vztz and it just created a cesspool of drama and griefing that made the community very tasteless

not many people can handle it in game, you can ignore the forums

personally i really thought it was fucking funny but it didnt help with the stress load on GM's or help people be civil with each other

I completely agree with this.

I think this is really important and needs to be considered.

^Agreed

Yes to server wide yellow text pvp kill messages

They are widely liked and by themselves don't cause a significant increase in chat grief

No to server wide OOC

Server wide OOC is entirely dependent on server pop it helps out low pop servers, but when the pop gets high it should be taken out. It is also the source for the majority of chat grief.

I liked the LNS rules we had going on VZTZ.

You shouldn't have to give up and ask for LNS but if you do...

You loot up and not enter the zone for an hour.

I like this policy and people caught breaking it would be suspended etc.

Raids worked the same way. Guild Leaders would work it out....the losing guild would loot up and leave zone for an hour.
