Tired of playing a dead server

lol nobody is giving you a fungus, least of all Krazy who isn't giving away jack shit.

Which is funny, cuz if one of your little "redpal buttbuddies" who's played and quit the server 10 times over came back, you'd regear him in full BIS droppables for turn number 11.

Still waiting on my aon and manastone, let's set up a time/date to complete this trade k? Don't u dare play with my items anymore, thanks. It's almost like this whole thread was a troll...

killing blue xfers was the final nail in the coffin. even though maybe 1% of blue players actually made it to 60 and endgame before quitting like little fay gate babies, they were bodies to fill groups for legitimately immersed new red players.

I blame no item loot and xp loss in pvp

They thought people couldnt take item loot and instead what we got was the everpresent, unlootable fungi twink.

I dont see any new server generating the kind of interest that red did in 2011 so GG.

Yea this is a valid point. I don't understand why they didn't go with item loot out the gate... I know that I read that nilbog is an ex rallos zek player, so I assume that he supports it. It would have cut down on fungi twinks quite a bit if they had the potential to lose it. The item loot dynamic worked well on Rallos all the way up until LDoN added the ability to make every piece of gear no drop by adding augments.

Adding level restrictions to epics definitely helped, but it wasn't enough on its own.

This is also true, but I feel like it's a moot point. The biggest problem is that the most die-hard of players here don't give a damn about anyone else playing. Just as we saw with Nihilum, there'd be 30-50 players logging in for raids even if there was literally nobody else left on the server. There's something very wrong with that mentality.

Eh, there are some genuinely cool people playing here. We are all here to re-live classic EQ after all. Unfortunately the cool, normal players end up getting mixed in with the spiteful, dysfunctional nerds because there's only so many people to play with when you have such a low population.

Do have to agree with this statement somewhat...although we did take in a lot of WoW babies who wanted to give EQ a shot...

Yeah angry like Emumu or Ordaga or whoever it was that lost his shit on voice when i posted on forums that xp loss in pvp should go because its bad for the server (but good for the guild i was in, Nihilum)
