full exp death with 80% spell damage? try playing another class besides a druid or shaman and tell me thats how it should be, your a moron.

Melees are supposed to suck in classic and be reliant upon groups to set up kills. I will be playing a melee eventually and advocate for more strict death penalty. Dying in and of itself is not a penalty - you need to lose something. Nvm, trying to argue with ultra-carebear.

Global ooc on blue was removed, becuase no one likes listening to forum trolls all day long, or having a global auction( yes i realize you can ignore people)
Public ooc would just be a micro wang swinging contest between you and the 20 other "hardcore " mouth breathers on the server, that cant log out for more than 2 days to give the devs TIME to fix things.

Pretty sure you're able to disable chat channels. If you don't want the global channel, don't listen to it. Holy shit are you retarded?

As for stuff being broken, you ,like many others on beta, reported almost nothing of use that wouldnt suit ur specific needs and wishes. Any exploit that was to your advantage... you ignored.

What was abused and not reported? The only thing I know of was mage swords, and that wasn't widespread. Wands were reported. Recharing was reported.

Asfor boxing... try getting some freinds, instead of trying to make a guild of you and ur 3 homosexual roommies.
Wives and kids? We all know better.

Nerd alert. Carebear is mad.

As it was discussed to death back in April, a FFA PvP server isn't going to attract many 'new' people (new meaning people who haven't played on any of the VZTZ boxes). We were confined to the previous combined box populations plus a few stragglers. And given that, this server is pretty healthy with 200 players.

You'll get a few loners here or there, but nothing is going to deter new players more than not having people to start with. This is amplified by the fact that there's a lot of classes that aren't going to solo well (especially at lower levels). There's a reason that almost every new MMO has PvP teams.

Obviously, I'm not advocating switching the server to teams as it's way too late for that). Even if you adjust teams (hardcode no crossteaming, all classes available to two teams, raid zones FFA), teams still has issues much like FFA.

If you recreate a server that's basically a more stable VZTZ aimed at the VZTZ playerbase, did you really expect the population to greatly exceed VZTZ simply because it's got a 99 tag on it?

This guy was right, there is so few new people coming to the server the only guilds that stand a chance all come to the server together.

Also more frustrating is those said pre-packaged guilds grief the shit out of the outnumbered new players which results in them either quitting or joining Nihilum when they get in there 40's since they are the only guild that doesn't grief for the sake of grief and make people hate them.

I just learned about this server about 3 weeks ago, and the only guild to really grief me was holocaust. By grief i mean kill me naked. I had friends here before i joined the server but its been a real good experience. I have tried to help all the lowbies i run into, but xp is tough when you don't know anyone or you can't find a group.

One thing i don't understand is why ban people for so long for boxing accounts. I mean considering how little people play on the red server it doesn't make sense to ban people for plvling character that they worked hard to lvl in the first place. I guess i can understand it on a blue server where there is 500+ people but not on a server with less than 150. Ban people for exploiting and hacking, but not for duel boxing.

diablo 3 isn't going to kill this server btw, there is NO game out there like EQ. Never will be.
