This thread is a good start to having a civil, open conversation WITHOUT starting a flame war over the "if you don't like it leave" mentality. We all like it, that's why we're here. | |||

The sense of entitlement for a FREE server is kind of odd imo. Just because he threw in a sentence saying "We appreciate what you do." doesn't really negate the fact he is acting like he is entitled to an answer after 6 months. | |||

There's nothing wrong with asking questions. VP affects more than just the top two guilds, it affects the general progression of the server. Sure the admins don't owe us anything, even an explanation, but P99 would be slightly boring to develop for if there wasn't anyone here to play. Player concern shows interest in what's going on behind the scenes. Skew that into some strange outlook all you want. The OP sounds like he's trying to get an answer without filling up every thread with "WHERE VP?!!!?" like the rest of the community. | |||

It's just dressed up with excuses for his sense of entitlement and threats of lowered population. It's a fancied up, passive-aggressive "WHERE VP?!!?" post. | |||

Something I noticed over the years: people who spend too much time playing EQ eventually acquire a sense of entitlement. More, over time they start to think of themselves as the voice for "the players", which contributes to the sense of entitlement. Their sense of importance is inflated - after all, if they're the playerbase, and the playerbase makes a MMO, then they deserve anything they want.
Louis XIV exhibited the same mentality when he famously said, "I am the state". The most often raised argument by these people is that if they're not happy they'll leave, and so they should be made happy because EQ without the players won't survive. So really, they're not selfish, no way - they're concerned with the GREATER GOOD! So I'd like to correct a misunderstanding. You're not the playerbase of this game. You're about 5% of the playerbase in this game. If you're not happy and leave, the game won't die - matter of fact, the remaining 95% will probably be much happier with you gone. In no way do you represent the people who play EQ - what you do represent is what can go wrong if someone plays EQ too much. So don't pretend you speak for everybody. | ||

Notice the population online right now? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I'd wager around 20-40% of those folks are raiders or twinks.
