Would you donate for a new blue server?

[jcr4990]

Would donate as well as pay monthly if necessary. Know many people personally that would do the same.

[Aebriol1]

I would deff donate to this.. Coming from the Rathe Server on live, we had the Rathe Travel Agency... Life was good, rainbows brighter, and unicorns more magnificent.

Yeah, so far looks like 58 "complainers" huh.

Face it, the majority on this server are casual, and are sick of what TMO's/IB/whoever has turned this in to, and we are willing to pay real money to get away from you.

Says a lot, doesn't it?

So far, only negative reaction has been from TMO..guess they are scared of RMT drying up on them? Or perhaps its not as fun to be #1 on a server by yourself.

I, as do others, have multiple level 60's with hundreds of /played hours, and I'd give it all up to start
fresh on a rotation server with actual rules. I think that says a lot about the current state of things here.

TMO players have completely changed their life to facilitate P99. People in that guild don't have jobs just so they can raid. People in that guild have not taken promotions so they can dedicate their time to P99

People in TMO use P99 as their only income stream.

Why would any of them want to give up P99? They've already given up their lives for P99

Don't be a dumbass. The handful of complainers are the ones coming here EVERY WEEK making new threads/posts about what changes they want implemented this week and complaining about how this and that is some great injustice to them. The rest of you are too passive aggressive to actually say anything about anything. Haven't the GM's said they don't put any stock in these polls just recently?

And I'm not surprised that casuals would vote for this. I get it. It's the way society is going in general. Less effort, more reward - on my time! I'm casual and I understand. Sure, I wish I could see VP and do more raiding, but I can't because RL > pixels, but you bet your ass I'll be ready when Velious launches and it opens up. But the people always trying to change the system around their whims is so old and played out. You all come across as a bunch of ungrateful whiny-ass bitches. Velious isn't going to fix this, a new server isn't going to fix this, new rules aren't going to fix this. You guys should instead look into fixing your own attitudes. Realize this isn't a democracy or democratic republic and that in life there will always be people with more time/money/whatever than you and learn to still enjoy life despite the fact.

Try being genuinely grateful you can even play here and even have a chance to experience EQ again instead of whining over and over about how much you DON'T get here. If you guys made as many 'Thank you threads' to the GM's and staff as whining/complaining threads, I bet more things would be done and sooner. Really, guys, holy crap. Take a step back and look at how much whining/complaining you guys do around here from an outsider's/GM's perspective about a server that's being generously ran for your enjoyment with others' volunteered time, effort, and resources. You show appreciation for this by constantly complaining that they need to do more and that you're not happy because it doesn't cater to your needs/playability? Fuck.

[falkun]

Or the hardcore server shrivels up and dies because they can't recruit fast enough for the burn out, ala Daldaen. Then we're back to a single server again.

And complaining about workload...yesterday's Sirken broadcast was for VP (C-only), SolB (C-train by their own admission), and Seb (C-train by their own admission). It's not class-R that created that workload.

[toolshed]

The entire server is screwed up due to the elongated time line. I would support a new pvp server but I don't see how a new blue server solves the over farming of classic and kunark on blue

[kaev]

Voted yes. Would donate, subscribe to newsletter, & etc.

Since we're talking about something that isn't what our esteemed overlords are workng to create, and thus someting extremely unlikely ever to come about, my personal preferences:
- Fresh start, screw /movelog, 379 nerds in GFay opening night is incredibly fucking entertaining.
- Velious era (no unnerfed Donals, no guises, & etc.)
- No bag limit on FFA repops. Have an outlet for players who want to go all-out once in a while.


I am somewhat ambivalent tho. Cucs makes a powerful point, there is something to be said for jamming all the blue drama into one box.

The only way this server would work is a /movelog, creating a fresh server would bring all sorts of trash back to p99. Perma farming guise, manastone etc. Shit was cool once, but not 3 times. Supposed to be a cleaner raid environment, not a chance for people to monopolize content like the current server.

Pretty much this. A fresh server would just continue to perpetuate the cycle we're trying to break. People want to experience the endgame, don't make them abandon their hard work to do it.

Also to the guy that was screaming about fat and happy farmers (Donal breastplates) TMO/IB killed probably something like 400 trakanons combined before Zeelot blew TMO up. To date BDA has probably killed Trak maybe a couple dozen times and never seen a cleric BP drop. The people that ave farmed the game into oblivion aren't the casual players.
