Dear "wipe it clean" nerds

It's interesting to me that the so-called hardcore pvpers who cry for wipes do nothing to show up and disrupt our raids which are literally at zone lines that would be easy as fuck to storm. Sure, they might die, but then they can call LNS and casually stroll in and loot in our faces. They don't do this because they are too pussy to take YT for EQ Elf Sim Ego. They'd rather backstab nakeds who pop up @ dumb bind points during raids.

/yawn

To be fair, you hid in a tree during a hm pvp event. Love ya tho

I really don't see how most people who played the box since the start can consider any time other than the initial ~6 months the best time in the server's history. Fights over manastone camps, tranix, guises every day. Guilds blowing up / merging / disintegrating left and right, alliances formed, relatively even competition at the top with dragons going down to both sides. Who knows how it would have ended up with GM intervention didn't result in the banning on one side of the competition.

PS, let's remember the last good video Smedy produced, fitting for this occasion.

Well if you want to just look at the end result you won't really see the point of a fresh server, yes the same people that can play 16 hours + a day will end up on top and the same guilds that exist now will probably reform and be in their exact same positions.

It's about the journey tho and the environment in which it takes place IMO. A fresh server would first off bring in some more players which I think everyone wants, a fresh server does create a more level playing field or at least a feeling of a more level playing field for the majority of the players in the short term. People are more likely to stick around if they feel like they have a chance, and they are more likely to invest more of their time and energy into the game and server as well.

The first month alone with everyone running around in rags would be more fun than I could have in years of playing on the servers in their current states.

There are also plenty of other reasons completely unrelated to feels. How many exploits have been patched since red launched? How many plat dupes? I know we will never get the answer but that is something to take into consideration.

coming from vz/tz I support a wipe. because that's what I'm used to when one guild completely dominates the competition or rather lack thereof.

No hardcore pvpers left on the bix. Just raiders, griefers, and weirdos

wrong - item loot is the only way to go

It's not fair to start a server with classic xp and then when you realize the pop dropped by half, increase it.

Item loot will change the way of pvp it'll be a wizard fest. And I think will even hinder pvp. Although I did enjoy bagging my items
