If only it was possible to leave the server and go play elsewhere.

Yes, P1999 would be a much happier place if the whiners left and went to an actual raiding server. There they could have all the "competition" they wanted. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

nah i think "competition is very important to be honest, its what drives us hard core players.
And some things are done just unfairly to make people who dont want to put in the effort happy, and it makes them have gear as good as those who put more effort into the game and the people who put more in should be rewarded as such, and those who dont shouldnt be rewarded unless they can, its what makes the gap between casual, and hardcore players, and that is a much needed gap.

Don't get me wrong, I understand what your saying and agree to a certain extent. What I'm saying is that if someone doesn't THINK there is ENOUGH competition on this server, those people should move on.

Unless they are complaining about having too much competition, which I don't beieve is the case here.

How is this not a raiding server? Raids mobs are up and in the game as far as I know.

There are other servers that are dedicated to raiding and as such have multiple raid zones open from many different expansions. They also have huge exp modifiers in order to ensure that people can quickly get to raiding level and join up with a guild or whatever to "slay da dragonz".

That's what I meant.

This server does not revolve around raiding and the majority of players are not at that point yet. This server is dedicated to giving people a chance to relive the classic 1999 experience. Everybody that comes here knows that. Sure there are raids, but raids are not the main reason this server is here.

And sorry, back in 1999 the devs did not simply unlock more raid content because some of the top level players asked for it or complained about lack of raid targets, and nor should it be done here. Therefor, the current situation should come as no surprise to anyone.

If there isn't enough raiding or "competition" or whatever for certain individual tastes, then they can easily split their time between this server for the "classic experience" and another server for the hardcore raiding and competition they desire. Nobody's stopping anyone from taking a break and coming back as new content is released.
