No...it's just the community was pretty tight knit. If a player from one side started pulling lame tactics, there'd be a post on the server forums about it, there'd be guild chat about it, and in a lot of cases these players were ostracized. They'd lose their guild membership, hell the burn notice they got would mean nobody would have a problem if a wronged party (or their guild) corpse camped them for a few hours. Players really enjoyed their freedom in the game and if they wanted to keep it, they had to not act up. That isn't to say it never happened but the people who pulled lame shit regularly got their playing freedom taken away from them. Ever had an enemy start trains on you then laugh in /ooc or /shout about it and later on you found their bind spot? Yeah, some of life's little pleasures in the game weren't spent killing NPCs.

I looted a SBH one day from that orc in Highpass (oh man I need to hunt there again!). I lied about it to the group I was in and gave it to a guildie.
That was the only bad thing I did. I mean I trained griffons on people and stuff, but only when they started it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wow, you guys have done stuff that makes me feel like a saint. I think the worst I've done is I'd be in a newbie zone of some sort (I was a warrior on live) and be standing somewhere and they come running to me with a train of newb mobs yelling for help. I'd just watch them get pummeled to death. After an angry tell I'd respond with "???"
Or, I'd happen upon some people exploiting something and they'd let me in on how to do it. I'd play along with them (but not engage in the activity) and report it. I felt like a rat for doing it, but hey it helped the game overall I think :\ | ||

Oye... I dunno where to begin.
The very worst thing..? Well, I'm new to P99... so it would have to be something that I did years and years ago on "live." Hmmm... Well, I can think of a couple of things... both of which were pretty nasty. And all of us who were involved feel terribly ashamed of it, too. No really... we do... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Okay, the first one that I remember was already mentioned in a different thread. Me (necro at the time), a chanter, a druid and a cleric were hanging out in EC... selling stuff and being bored. All of us were high level players from our guild. Eventually, we see a shout from one of the lowbies, screaming about the EC griffon and how he was messing up their orc camp, or some such. Typical EC chatter. So one of us... I forget who, it might even have been me... got the bright idea to charm the griff, give it a bunch of uber buffs (SoW, cleric HP buff, chanter STR and haste buffs) and then set it loose again. About 20 minutes later, the damned thing had slaughtered just about every living thing in the zone... lowbies included. Or at least, all of the lowbies who couldn't run away fast enough. And actually, nobody could run away fast enough because of the SoW buff on the griff. That was pretty bad. ... Another time, pretty much the same group (we were the shameless jerks in our guild -- I freely admit it) came up with a great way to grief a rival guild. I forget which zone this took place in... but it was one of the old world dungeons. Or maybe it was in CT... I really can't remember. Anyway, here is what we did: we had a bard with us that day and he took all of his gear and stashed it in the bank. Then we dueled him at one end of the dungeon, until he was dead. We had him bound right nearby, if I remember correctly. Then, the bard re-entered the dungeon naked and pulled a HUGE train on purpose. Once he had a nice fat pack of nasty mobs chasing him, he ran all of them over to the rival guild's camp. Meanwhile, we had our cleric standing next to his corpse... the one that was still lying there from the duel that he had earlier, when we were setting this up. As soon as the bard was getting close to the rival camp... with that GINORMOUS train hot on his heels, he sent us a tell saying "NOW!" and the cleric rezzed his corpse, back at the other end of the dungeon. And when he actually reached the rival camp, the bard clicked on the "Accept" button. Result: the bard disappears from the rival camp, leaving about two dozen pissed off mobs sitting right on top of the rival guild. Mayhem then commenced and the bard never got touched. We were evil back then. But we totally hated those guys, for cock blocking us on a raid a week before. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

I played on Vallon Zek which was awesome. Lighties vs Darkies, The Prophets to be the first guild to crossteam, Infectus (guild I was in) the last guild to stay as a non-xteaming guild. But anyway, when LDoN came out, and the rest of the expansions they merged the PVP servers. Which killed it for me because my guild went crossteam (hate them bards). So I got bored and searched for ways to entertain myself.
1. Smacking bards in our guild for no reason whatsoever. 2. Being even 10 times more racist (EQ wise) in game. 3. Finding ways to piss off bards. These were just but a few. But I think my crowning achievement was when I played my rogue Vasai or my Necro Vortacien in LDoN where it was a mix of races. We'd battle through the instance and kick some serious butt! And right as we're a mob or two away from the end, I would kill our healer, and yell out "FOR THE DARKIES!!!" Yes, after a week of doing that to almost any group I was with I couldn't play those toons. But, I was found out eventually as one of the players apparently knew my main character and I'd spout off drunkenly about what Ive done in my guild, guess he didnt like me. So I was KOS for about 3 months. Me and PoK really got to know each other. Good times. Worst thing Ive ever done? Or most genius thing Ive ever done. For the darkies... | ||
