A proposed PvP Teams ruleset: Modified SZ (long)

[Old_PVP]

I would definitely play on this server.

Teams creates an atmosphere that allows bigger and better pvp battles.

Speaking from experience.

-RZ, SZ, DAoC, UO vet

nothing like a bunch of people who either haven't played or played a day or two telling the staff how to fix the server

server aint broke (other then resists)

leave it alone

We don't want to do anything to your well running server with 50 people. This would be for a different server.

I'm sure staff are going to put up another PVP server with the great interest red99 has gotten.

Not a second blue server to relieve the congestion of the 1k+ people playing there.

Server had 137 on last night, you mad newfag?

No, I am happy for you, it sounds like an FFA pvp server was definitely the right move with those kinds of numbers.

In Bazias defence. 137 is pretty impressive for an EMU and what blue had near launch for a long while.

And yet you can clearly see in this thread (along with the numerous others over the past month) many new people who have made accounts on this forum specifically to say that they would play on an SZ server.

Listen. Those of us who played the original SZ have mostly no interest in playing R99 because we just don't like the rule set... otherwise we would have played RZ - and I started out on RZ before SZ.

The interest is out there. Just because you don't understand it or refuse to acknowledge it doesn't mean that it goes away. Random people signing up for the forum shows that there are players interested.

You act like "red99 history" was something that merits remembering in the first place. You don't have to be an expert in "red99 history" to recognize the signs of a dying server struggling to stay afloat. Don't be so arrogant in thinking that your precious red99 is a perfect server that is not in dire need of an overhaul.

Most of us that are posting suggestions want to see this server succeed, because it is potentially one of the best options for free MMO pvp out there. Some may not have any "red99 history" but we do have years and years of PVP history from all walks of MMORPGs. This isn't our first rodeo, and this isn't 1999. Most of us aren't noobs anymore. We know what works and what makes good PVP, and teams work, even in EverQuest.

Get with the program and turn red99 into something worthy of remembrance.
