The serious itemloot poll

[greatdane]

Casters will make up atleast 50% of the pop

You might wanna rephrase that to convey what you actually meant. Caster classes make up 50% of the classes, so it's not like 50% of the pop would be surprising somehow. I'm pretty sure it's more like 70%+ on blue99 just because casters are easier to play. You mean casters would be the overwhelming majority with a huge advantage.

The devs may seriously curtail third party program use, but will not stop it all completely, guaranteed. Any sort of advantage given to a small cheating minority = bad. I'm right. You're wrong. I'm sorry.

The only point of my post was to point out the irony of you telling me I'm reaching a bit, immediately before saying there will be 100% no cheating on R99.

I didn't say there wouldn't be any cheating. I even said there probably would. The actual point is that it should be possible to keep it at a relatively low level, and that we can't really take things like that into consideration when determining (insofar as Rogean will hopefully care at least a little bit about what the players think) the server's ruleset. Note that I'm starkly against itemloot, but arguments have to be valid and reasonable. If we start getting into what cheaters can or cannot do, we can pull in just about anything as a pro/anti argument. So, for the sake of this argument, we have to trust that the admins can "prevent cheating" or we might as well argue that we should have non-classic follow-the-wavy-line tracking because cheaters will have even better tracking.

KEEP ITEM LOOT.... POPULATION WILL FAIL WITHOUT IT

For those that are voting no on no item loot, stop it damnit! This is a classic feature from EQ1 and should be treated as such!

Is it? As far as I know, there was more than 1 classic PVP server... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The blue players dont care. When itemloot strangles the server, they will just ride back over to p99. This is our home, the only real pvp server. Nevermind that nearly ALL of the legit red players voted NO ITEM LOOT, because we've been there and done that, and we know that it dosnt work in the long run.

I would be happy with worn item loot, vs. bag loot. I'd like the option to carry a Manastone around in my inventory if I wanted without the risk of it getting ganked.

Just bag your shit, or learn how to pvp.

Otherwise, coin loot ftw.

For the devs: The question is, will more people quit with coin loot, or will more people quit with item loot?

[Billbike]

After the blue players springbreak with itemloot down on the PVP server, it will be back to the safe p99 grind for them. Meanwhile we will be left with a server of naked necros and mages that exploit the broken concept of itemloot.

GJ keeping it classic, well atleast your version of classic.
