Hivemind sounds like he's running on an apple 2 and can't box himself.
I think the last apple product I owned (the only I can ever remember owning) was a first generation ipod. Thing was a gigantic sack of shit, and gave me all the impression I needed to never purchase another apple product again. I guess it's easier on the imagination to make assumptions like I'm poor and/or am running on a shitty computer, and use that as reason as to why I dislike boxing.

It's a good idea, but wrong. And while "multi-boxing" was never brought up, boxing one client is pretty comparable to boxing two clients, which is pretty comparable to boxing three clients, and so forth. It's been my experience that the vast majority cannot even control one player character very well, let alone more than one. I don't like playing with shitties which is part of the reason that I cannot stand playing EQ on non-PVP server, and is part of the reason I cannot stand playing with people who box.

Sorry you can't do shit on one account and feel the need to be able to box in order to enjoy this game. Must suck.

Has nothing to do with "sucking at the game", more along the lines of I don't have 6+ hours a day to neckbeard on this crappy server just to get something done.

This world is to big and there are not enough players, you play a geared melee at level 60 and tell me how much fun you're having without a porter, my guess will be zero unless you're a gigantic bluebie faggot who only logs on for respawn days in Nihilum.

When you use quotations, consider actually quoting something I said as opposed to quoting some set of words that you imagined (or interpreted) me as saying. I said I don't like playing with shitties... and I said that most people cannot play one character let alone more than one... The implication here is that it is more difficult to play more characters... and most people can't play one. It really shouldn't require explicit explanation, but that's what happens when someone quotes something that isn't there and I am left to go back and explain what it was that I actually said.

As I said before:

I get mad when people park their 60 clerics in zone to res. I think they should limit it to one character per person. You guys cant handle leveling up with rustys, cant handle guk without parked cleric, cant handle EQ.
Classic EQ is a game where you need to contant other humans, and need to be logged in all the time to succeed, you guys dont want classic EQ.
QQ to get pvp xp death out,
QQ to make LNS rules
QQ so you can box
you suck

xp loss on death was the worst of the bad decisions made by devs

If they had allowed it to carry on, even with PnP it would have destroyed the box

Nobody but a core of maybe 60 neckbeards can have fun when you need to grind on top of the grind

Quoted for extreme carebearism. Bluest EQ PVP server I have ever played on, without contest. Part of this can be discerned immediately from the population that comprises the server, and the rest of this can be discerned from the hilarious set of rules on this server. I won't even get started on the staff policy of ban-first, ask-questions later. Carebear as fuck server [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

At least it's easier than blue in most ways imaginable. Otherwise the server would already be dead.

Uhhh, unless sullon zek had xp loss on pvp death then this is the first server I've ever seen with that setting. It was a retarded rule, and only further deteriorated the chances of finding pvp on this server.

Nobody was willing to die, the xp loss from pvp was not rezzable, and unless your side had a numbers advantage...there was no way anyone stuck around for pvp. Nihilum included.

Who the fuck is this retard hivemind anyway?

Sullon Zek did have exp loss on pvp death. I can tell you did a lot of pvping there. If you had a hard time finding pvp on Sullon Zek you were either a pussy, or evil (in other words you were a pussy).

Hardcore rules aren't for everyone, and definitely not for pussies. But that's why we have red99 with LNS where you can get bind rushed until you get banned for killing people who refuse to call LNS [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Basically zero consequences for pvp death (unless you happen to be special and carrying 9000 platinum on you), but you can absolutely get banned for PVPing people. Some people might say that risk-factor makes it all the more exciting... I am still trying to figure that out.

Not sure the rest of what you said, my erection sort of died out when you asked if there was exp loss for PVP death on SZ. Who are you?

Main reason is to make it possible to guerilla challenge larger, "zergy" guilds like nihilum.

Think about that for a second and where the opposition would be if they still ate xp death for trying to contest a mob nihilum is preparing on engaging.

Yeah.

I was one of the few trying to convince other people to engage nihilum in fear in classic, trying to talk abysal and andis into putting non-factor disputes from vztz aside to fight nihilum with holocaust, so i dont need to be lectured by some new guy over my carebearism, but thx.

Theres a few marlboro men like you and chewie that would play till they pull the plug. I wouldnt be playing because I dont have fun on a dead box.
