The point I was trying to make was that EQ is a game, not warfare.

It's just silly for people to look for parallels between EQ and real war in an effort to validate their annoying public spam about their penises. That I even have to explain that kinda makes me sad [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

For the last time we are on a red SERVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all the shit you ask for would make sense if this wasn't a pvp server!

I have no interest in Unicorns or Orc's I'm here to kill players, I want them to hate me in RL, to break their keyboards, and beat their children because of what I did to them in game.

You think pvp is a duel and it's not, you wanted to stop bindcamping, corpsecamping, griefing etc. The problem is everything you ask for only makes sense on a BLUE SERVER!

I don't want to waste GM's valuable time policing hurt feeling's, everyone on this box is over 18 there should be NO RULES concerning OOC AT ALL!

True Fact: More people have committed suicide or killed loved ones over EQ than any game ever made. This game has always been harsh and unforgiving, and player's like you that got lost on there way to a blue server are really fucking up my entertainment value whining about hurt feelings.

I think global OOC has become bad for game. Yellow text speaks the truth now. The OOC spam is not classic, and it most likely drives people away from the server. I believe it needs to have rules or to be removed completely.

Hey buddy <pats head> you lost little guy, because the blue server is that way ----->

90% of time there are 4 people spamming OOC out of a solid 100 players. Some /auctioning which is probably its chief benefit at present since there is no player defined auction zone.

And yeah, I can't say I'm a fan of the way yer trying to talk down on me because we don't share an opinion. I'm an RZ player and I think grief is the most beautiful aspect of this game and not because I'm a masochist. It just makes the stakes higher. But OOC has been dumb for a while, half of the people that say something in there just get verbally assaulted by a few buddies pretending to heart PVP while pharming plat somewheres.

Possibly a lack of global OOC might have us develop a common trading post and make a more centralized trading area where the local OOC can be madness and pvp is rampant with guards racking up more kills than anyone else, assuming NPC aggro gets worked on.

Sorry dude. a PVP server doesn't mean everyone is a player killer at all times. A great skill based straight PVP Game that you may not play is street fighter 4 arcade edition. Another good one is call of duty. Those are fun pvp games but lack EQ's exciting variety. They are really well balanced tho...

I think you misunderstand where I'm coming from.

Personally I don't think anyone should be censored you might think slathar's rambling is offensive I often find it hilarious and less outrageous than you spamming ooc with hideously over- priced AC MQ for 5-7k.

But I'm not suggesting we have a price monitor to stop people from over charging for items which is MORE insane than suggesting we monitor ooc for happy content.

[Faerie]

Swyft, no one is getting offended by the ooc chatter; it's just annoying.

And it would be sooo cool to see gfay used as a trade hub again! Maybe we should ask the devs to remove global ooc...

[fuark]

This could easily be fixed if people just spammed their dick jokes and pvp shit talk in /tells instead of OOC.
