5 Great Reasons to Wipe it Clean

[Peener]

That said, if you're in favor of wiping the server or making a new one I can only assume you're bordering on mentally handicapped. If you want a game where devs go to great lengths to ensure you have the same opportunities and access to content as players who've spent years working on their characters, there's a game out there that would be perfect for you. It's called World of Warcraft.

If you people who have such a problem with inflation or other people having to much money or whatever the hell your problem is with p99, then why don't you band together and start another EQEmu server and quit your bitching. I am against wiping this server, if you just want to start something else I don't care, I played on p99 in foreign time zones and when it was way less populous, I'll manage without you, just don't throw a bunch of my time and everyone else's down the drain by whimsically deleting the entire server and forcing patches to be progressively released all over again. Seems a bit extreme.

That wasn't the point I was making. I don't know enough about the server population to make a cost/benefit analysis of doing a server wipe - My point is that posters dismissing people who claim they won't play anymore by saying "they'll get over it" or "there's nothing else for them to do" seems a little dickish.

New players here actually have more benefit of a wipe than old veteran neckbeards.

A wipe means guises, manastones and rubicite drops and the entire server is able to assist you in hitting cap while meeting players that normally you would never see.

With that said... We can also just keep going down this boring road of a set-in-stone bloated server we currently have that correction: only a few people seem to be happy with.

pointless, useless, ad hominem. nice touch. and no, they don't. what's the difference between 5 new players trying to level in crushbone and 500 players all having to start over? 495 less players in crushbone.

all of these are currently available. just try putting some time and effort into the game. or go play world of warcraft, i guess.

if people weren't happy to play here, then why would they play here?

sorry to break it to you, but the onus is actually on those making the demands rather than those who want no change.

This is invalid argumentation.

"Those making the demands" have already given copious reasoning as to why they would desire something like a new server, just look at the 5 or 6 threads currently going right now on the topic. Here's a couple of highlights:

- Non-classic timeline resulting in abnormally long Kunark era. This has produced very high mudflation (look of the definition of mudflation if you need to).

- RMT and item duping have further exacerbated the economy problems. Granted, a fix to these two issues would need to be implemented before a new server was established.

The point is, "onus" is a moot point when "those making demands" (I would reword to "those giving reasons why they desire a new server") have to comply to your personal reasoning and preferences to decide whether they are legitimate or otherwise. Thus, invalid argumentation.

your whole damn argument is invalid. RMT isn't going away with a new server, dumbass.

if the timeline bothers you so much, quit playing. no reason to drag the rest of us down for your selfishness.

The fuck? I am arguing for a new server and he is arguing against it.

I am not bored enough to make a 2nd account to argue with myself..shit.

Dumbass.

Dont make blanket assumptions that anyone who wants a wipe is a scrub casual that just wants pixels.

I have a nice fat stack of plat/gear just under 500k and can afford anything but a guised account and a pre nerf fungi staff.

All I see from you, is separation anxiety.

and all i see from you is zero valid reasons to wipe the server.
