A proposed PvP Teams ruleset: Modified SZ (long)

[Aenor]

Now, just to clarify, I have no problem with RMT. Used to make a grand a month selling shit on ebay, mostly on the strength of farming ee bags (not kidding). My customers were guys with good jobs and limited free time. They wanted to trade their money for my time.

What I have a problem with is anything that hurts a server so badly that it goes from 500 pop to 100 pop. If I had the talent to build a server like p99, you better believe I'd be all up in the cookie jar. But I'd be maximizing population like a mufucker.

For the people who spend 10 hours a day in-game but can't take 10 minutes to read a post: this is NOT a proposal to fix Red. It's a suggested ruleset for a new server. Red is dead. This is about the future.

Lot of bluebies asking for teams and variance and other shit. I got good news for you, there's this game out on the market which is immensely popular and it has a big new content patch in a week and a half coming out. It has two teams, you can't kill people on your own faction even if they're attacking things you want, there's instances so you can't be cock blocked, pvp on demand via instance, it's called world of warcraft. Meanwhile ill stick with my FFA pvp server where I can't be cock blocked from content by people on my own team. Good news tho bros, if you couldn't compete on red before with teams you could roll the same team as nihilum and never worry about pvp again! Sounds like a great pvp game.

Teams with 70 pop prime time as if there's 300+ people out there waiting for teams el oh lol morans

If I was a fan of the current FFA server I wouldn't want a Sullon Zek like server coming out and destroying my server's population even more. So your statement and motives makes sense.

Great, I suggest you try them out sounds like your type of game.

Any server where I can't attack whoever I want is a blue server IMO.

Under these proposed rules, if you rolled on the Evil team you could attack anyone on the server over level 10, including other Evils.

That freedom comes with a price, however, in that if your Evil guild starts PKing other Evils you will basically become enemies to the entire server, and will have no safe haven anywhere, since all three teams would be gunning for you. So it's a dangerous option for any guild to consider, but one a top guild could possibly pull off, but not without a great amount of risk.

Red enough for you?

To me Red is a pseudo-blue server. No exp loss, and because everyone can join every guild, it allows for one guild to gain dominance and strong-arm everyone into joining them. On SZ this simply wasn't a possibility, as even though there was Ruin and then Hate which had clear dominance on the server... they also still had massive opposition from the Goods and Newts simply because those two faction were unable to group/guild with the Evils.

Anyway, as also is outlined in the OP's post, the evil force would be able to fight among themselves... which would essentially create a FFA PvP team.
