From a fellow Red player:

No. This type of thread, and advertisement, is just troll bait. People on Blue who wished to play on Red will already have done so.

Out of courtesy to Blue players, please don't make threads like this here.

this are what every blue player sees whenever red is mentioned in any fashion. You may as well give up, our decision was made long ago and won't change because you whine a little.

WoW pvp is leaps and bounds ahead of EQ pvp. (even in WoW's current state)

EQ pvp is blue with the added benefit of being randomly griefed by strangers.

EQ pvp = who has the most friends online at any given time

WoW pvp = If I know wtf I'm doing I can kill 10+ people.

EQ pvp is blue with the added benefit of being randomly griefed by strangers, which is honestly why WoW pvp sucks these days. There's no element of danger in the open world, because no one really cares about it (there are no rewards)

EQ pvp = who has the most friends online at any given time, which promotes teamwork and a sense of shared responsibility among the community.

WoW pvp = If I know wtf I'm doing I can kill 10+ people, because they're wearing PvE gear in a BG... they're really just here for the points - most of them are probably AFK, anyway.

Fixed that for you! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

hey, remind me how much fun you have while getting chain CC'd as a melee.

EQ pvp is so much fun.

I'm not saying EQ PvP is any better - it all has its problems, but your WoW rose-colored glasses don't really help...

And getting chain CC'd as melee is standard in WoW, as well.

Getting ramrodded by some melee in near-perfect gear after attempting to CC him repeatedly to survive is pretty standard too...

So if gear is the answer here, what does the melee player do when the caster has near-perfect gear as well?

And only Blizz knows what PvP is gonna be like when they drop resilience and pen in the next xpac.

Everyone get's chained CC'd in WoW, not just melee.

The difference between WoW and EQ is, In WoW the Melee can get out and kill someone. in EQ, 1 druid can fuck multiple melee without a problem.

Join the pvp zerg guilds or get griefed off the server by former vztz malcontents, it's more fun than blue

You'd be surprised how one person with some sense, reason, and ethics can alter the viewpoint of all those around them. People are generally good, they just need to be reminded sometimes - especially when they go into 'mob mentality mode'.

With that in mind, I think I'll be creating a character on the red server in order to bring some harmony to an otherwise barren landscape.

This post has been the cause of that, thank you OP.

The rest of you, take it for what you will! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
