I think it takes fewer people to clear the zone and kill CT than it does to kite the zone and burn CT down quickly.

But it will be interesting to see how things change!

Agreed, any decent guild can clear fear just as quickly as anybody else with good coordination. Also a few ae pulls will thin the herd out and make the job easier. Its very doable.

Random idea: clean out all the namesquatters. Was hanging out in EC and half the people have misspelled names like Warrsaw or Griffthh. The problem is that tons of people have way to many L1 toons reserving names they will never play. Suggested script:

remove any char unless:
played >= 1 day
level >= 5
pp >= 1000
most-recent-login <= 1 week
played sessions > 10

Also, I totally agree with Giegue. I'm not going to say EQ doesn't have a lot of strategy, but all those strategies are known. It isn't that TMO is the only guild that figured out how to use cell phones, its that some of us don't want to spend all day tied to our computers. But I've had that flamewar before.

The pp >= 1000 one is a very very very very VERY bad idea lol. A completely legitimate level 60 toon that's been here since P99 started could blow all his/her plat on something, be completely broke, and get deleted for it. Rest aren't that dangerous though.

I suppose it wasn't clear, but I was thinking delete unless any one of those conditions was true, not unless all of them are true. I really doubt there is even a single legitimate character that doesn't satisfy at least one of those.
