A Challenge to Dev's and GM's

wait, you mean the guy that makes content changes like making raptors uncharmable, nerfing chardok faction, and buffing mage epic pets isn't a developer?

huh

He doesn't have the ability to actually make the changes does he? It was my understanding that he fed info to someone else to make the changes. If he can get his hand on the code himself that's some bullshit. It is already crossing the line that he plays while feeding info but an actual developer playing is corrupt.

Nilbog is gonna get mad

And when he's mad

I'm sad

[HippoNipple]

When I say a developer playing I also mean in a competitive situation like end game PvE. If they make characters to test out certain things in the community that's a plus.

If it came out that Nilbog was Chewie this whole time I don't think anyone would have a problem with that.

New discussion:
A server with a less than brutal FFA rule set
No invis pulled pixels
Hopefully no dragons pulled into walls pixels
Zade/Sirkdawg tag team staff champs to only have to worry about MINIMAL amounts of issues on a NO RULES SERVER, in detail:
No worrying about items taken off accounts
No worry about account trades gone wrong
No worrying about training
No global OOC to start because it should have a 300+ pop

Other side of the fence:
Your raid mob Sunday isn't going anywhere on red99
New luls to be had
Progression PvP and not just end game PvP

so why again do you think he's just a faction developer? because it says so on his forum title?

This post is garbage. The devs VOLUNTEER their time for the development of the server. Not your ridiculous post calling out god knows who.

Stop alienating people who work for free to bring you anything at all. I hope they turn RED99 off for good. Confirmed Ruined by neckbeards.

[Colgate]

just because it's free doesn't mean it has integrity

[HippoNipple]

I just knew people talked about the raptor crap in the past. I never looked into it because I am not in the raid scene.

In my opinion that's pretty corrupt and looks bad on the server whether it has any real significance or provides an advantage or not, but who cares what I think.

As far as challenging a dev to leveling on this server, I think Sirken has made some lower level chars to fuck around before. You don't have to go all the way to 50 to test out the experience.

Most "neckbeards" aren't requesting more exp for obvious reasons, they can level up chars at any pace. With that said red99 exp is probably about as fast as rogean is going to allow it to be and it is fast enough.

If the devs were smart they would encourage people to make suggestions so they can help shape the server in a positive way to attract more people and make more money. In this case the suggestion was bad and should be ignored, along with 90% of other suggestions on these forums.

You have to dig through the bs as a good dev to get a good understanding of how the community feels and then make a decision based on what is best for the community, whether they realize it or not.

The XP bonus for some is a result of being lazy

for others its a result of being no one to level with and to catch up to the level where they can find groups.

All systems or solutions have pros and cons. Look at spawn variance for example. I've even learned to accept teams as a server format. FFA has problems, so does teams. /shrug.

If some xp bonus gets the population up and people noticing and reporting bugs... its good. Even if I'm against it because it isn't classic.
