Is Red the way to go?

Man, even new players don't like you.

Oh i got this one.

Welcome to red, I have just left through the exit door here. I rolled a cleric with a new to red guild called TMO. My team was always in need of clerics and I leveled up quickly, YES there will be attacks by decked out twinks, my groups were often attacked by epiced, bis for kunark, while my guildmates/groupmates were wearing cloth. There will be nights where you have to walk away from the box because absolutely every zone you go to there will be empire alts there hunting you down to harass you. (one night we did this routine, till finally campign for the night. seb,chardok,hole,permafrost,hole.) I started with nothing, got a few handme downs from guildmates. I was able to purchase most of my spells as i leveled, filling out my book after i was able to group in SEB. I had every slot filled with something other than cloth at level 60, but i was missing over 1300 mana from my where my cleric on blue was sitting. (lack of gear), and my resists were lower than blue as well.

Well, then Empire decided that TMO was more than a cute puppy on the server and activity harassed, zone-line camped, violated PNP continuously. This is a one guild server, there is calls for "we want pvp" we want more players, but they grief off any attempt to to compete before competitors get feet under them. yes, you can petition and 3-4 weeks later the petitions get answered, I love Sirken I am not saying anything bad about him you cannot expect one volunteer GM to be able to handle all the petitions for shitty behavior, but the only way to change the shitty behavior is to petition it and get the violator suspended, but it loses its meaning to the violator if its 4 weeks down the road, and like me, it does nothing for the petitioner because i am gone. I initially left blue to play here cause i was tired of petitionquest, i chose to not play it on red. pvp to take a camp, pvp before dragon encounter sure, but what goes on here TO ME is mostly griefing.

My advise is to not roll on red. Unless you are already an empire minion. Then good luck watching all the good spoils go to the "inner core" that talk on special elf chat or something cause they can't talk in /gu , or in their ts.

Unless Rogean changes something the red server will continue to be a place where the server population is low. Sometimes I felt like Mad max going up against all the crazys, sometimes It felt like we might conquer, other times, it just felt like the insane asylum with clear cut rules, being totally thrown out, cause you are playing against someone on opiates

talk to your officers who recruited the riff raff we specifically told you not to

otherwise you would have received help from us

does no one understand that or do they forget

I mean nobody wants you on Red anyway Knix. Do they teach you how to loot your corpse on Blue because that seemed to be a hiccup for you on Red.

Aright, I get the whole TMO / Empire nonsense; please don't roll that into yet another thread; especially mine. It's crap like that, which steers some potential people from moving over here to play with you guys, whether with or against.

God damn.

Alright... played a Necro til 10 after just a couple hours and literally had no PP to buy spells. I figured this would happen.

I'm re-rolling now as a Cleric, and I'm sure will have the same issue, but I suppose it's probably just best to solo early on to at least be able to purchase my "Healing" (14) spell (seems I can Courage/Center heal just fine until then in CB), and... blah. Almost wish I could turn off Xp gain, or if the "usual" ways of getting Plat were viable here (CB Pads/Belts).



Either way, server doesn't seem as bad as the posts make them out to be. Lots of QQing, whining, and crying going on in OOC, and certainly no sign of intelligent life forms to be found in most of the discussions to be had.

Despite all that, people seem to be pretty cool, and quite helpful right off the bat. Though, I am certain that will change later on once I'm leveled, but it's all in fun I suppose. Though I feel some of you have serious psychological issues, or merely need to just get laid for once... but who am I to judge?!

Either way, thanks for the input folks (most of you). See you in-game!

i found the rabid animal quest in qeynos a great way to get spell money for my first toon even if its a little outa the way. plenty of low lv options for getting your bankroll started.

Once you get past the twink bracket, it gets fun

just run around with pals

It's an acquired sense of humor in ooc. Once you "get it", you'll enjoy the back and forth that goes on. If you can scrape some spare plat together I'll make you up some stat JC'd items, resist items, HP rings...whatever. Just PM me, JCer parked in NFP bank.

If you've got some blue plat that's not being used, consider transferring some to red @ 3:1
