I mean really, you're auctioning 200k worth of gear in EC and you can't loan someone 25 plat so they can upgrade from a Dragoon Dirk!?!?
They can't work for it as I did? No one should be obligated to give anyone anything solely on the basis of how much they "have," nor should they be subjected to some kind of guilt trip if they don't.

This game isn't made so we can practice our philanthropy.

I'm fairly certain it's already failing. The peak daily population is less and less every day.

Did I say anything about obligation!? No.

The point is that decent human beings like to help others. Unlike the rampant population of sociopaths present on the project 1999 Emulated EQ server.

It's worse that in WoW....and that's saying something.

You should be ashamed of yourselves and your greed.

So, calling someone a dick, pussy, cocksucker, etc is a symptom of sexual frustration? I don't know, making a quadruple post passionately defending an Everquest emulator with the fervent zeal of Fred Phelps would scream virgin to most people.

Interesting theory, though.

Not really. It topped off at almost 1000 at peak times because of that recent double exp rollback + the release of plane of sky. We're seeing that naturally level off now AND we'll see a big spike when Kunark is released. The most we'd ever see online when I started just 4 months ago was 500-600. Now we're between 800-900. Do you need a graph or a chart or something? Perhaps that would make things clear.

Default the odd quests/items

Nice to have Jboots, yes, but nicer to have a druid around or a bard that likes to hang with you and go where you go and you go with them.

Remember the rat's foot necklace? (+2hp) rumor had it that it was "lucky" and years later the hidden "luck" was said to be able to run through blackburrow with no harrasement from gnolls, even if you are KOS.

Like skunk scent glands made you not as KOS to skellies (reduced their aggro range to nothing?- haha no nose yet affected was hidden joke) if you had them out of a bag. it would drop your cha, though.

Why, an "uber" once gave me and my friend 50p in South Qeynos just to show them where the bar was,they were after something about a cask and a quest. We saved it for spells.

Remember the saving skill of running away from lions in a diagonal manner?

I like the server and the gm's. The server is a dedicated work of art. I got suspended for a while, but then again I did things wrong. Its just part fo the game, learn from stuff and move on. If you cry about it, leave.

I don't understand what all the whining is about.

So far, with a few minor exceptions, everyone on this server has been extremely chill. My first day someone gave me a nice belt and 100p without me ever asking. My second day a Ranger ran up to me (whose name I wont mention to avoid tells, but yes I remember, thanks Z!) and buffed me an PL'd me for about 20 minutes, then gave me 500p and disappeared. A Mage gave me 100p, a turtleshell helm, and a SoW potion as I was running through WK, he still messages me every few days, just to see whats up. I've never seen an EC Tunnel more full of people who are ready and willing to SoW the endless hordes that pass by. Almost every "friend" I've made so far from grouping or guilds has shared equipment with me, and I've shared back, and no one is worried about getting burned. This honestly has to be the BEST server community I've ever played on in any game, and I've played a lot of games.

People seem to misuse the guides/GMs. They are not there because x person is being rude to you. They are there for when you get stuck and cant move, or your corpse gets glitched, etc. If someone steals your camp, try to resolve it yourself. If you can't resolve it, don't create drama, send an educated petition with the whole story, and 9x out of 10 you'll see Uthgaard port in and punt them out of the zone with little/no conversation.

Sure, they come off as having a bit of an attitude sometimes, and hell, they probably do, but I submit that its not due to those of us that are the nice majority of the server, they're just still ticked from the last guy that petitioned over unreasonable_request_01.

The bottom line is: its free, its popular, and it is what it is- don't stress.
