TLDR the reason we won’t ever is because of the “tradesonred” and “new_guy”’s of the world. They troll anything and everything they can here with no intention to play etc only to be toxic on a forum

Whos trolling? Im one of the few over the years who keeps making constructive comments so we can try to have a server with a healthy pop. New guy and a few others are doing the same thing, gustoo etc... without the few people like that here and there the community would be an absolute cesspool, not taking into account people who just play and dont post here.

Besides people actually putting in work to report critical bugs, my criticism must be up there with things that helped the server stay healthy.

I was probably single-handedly responsible for the removal of xp loss in pvp because i pushed for it for a full year at launch being annoying on forums with it. Its probably the most significant change that happened to red over the years, in a positive sense. Im not saying this to throw myself some flowers but to drive the point that constructive criticism is important.

For people who were there during year1, Casey who im starting to see post again basically represents the bad part of the community, which became the dominant presence on the server after the devs let them take it over by not acting on xp loss in pvp. It drove out practically anyone that didnt plan ahead and joined a zerg during the first few months with people regularly bragging on the forums they were proud to make the population drop by stomping casuals with xp loss.

Nihilum is the other side of that coin, telling devs everything was fine because Nizzar needed to sell some dragon loot to pay the rent or some shit and cockblocking fear with sheer numbers. Devs are partly responsible for the state of toxicness of the server and its important that it is said, so these mistakes arent repeated.

I may be annoying, harsh, too much in my commentaries often ill admit but its always because i have the server's interest at heart because one day, i would sure like to play a populated Rallos-like server.

You clearly never played on Red, it's a fucking cesspool, it's not a few bad apples, it's more like a pool of radioactive shit you would have to dive through to find one good apple.

The majority would scream racial slurs all day if they weren't monitored constantly, over 70% are actively trying to either run showEQ, MQ, or multibox. Any rules put into place become a constant lobbyquest to GM's where you have to sift through rivers of lies to find out who is framing who.

All you blues and greens wanna claim it's the same as red yet red remains the GM Afghanistan, claiming at least 3 GM's and 1 dev.

Not my experience. There are some sadist who seemingly only enjoy preventing enjoyment for others but I feel the vast majority are there with a pve agenda, simply valuing pvp as an accessory and tool to what is already a good game.

PVP is why my gear has value beyond the journey of acquiring. That is everything.

Considering that I was a member of the largest guilds on Red, privy to the Teamspeak and discord of the inner circle of every powerful guild on the server. That I battled the best geared and most reputable PvEer's and PvPers on a daily basis and could easily tell from first hand combat who was cheating and who wasn't, my opinion holds a lot more weight than the gullible dreams of a non-factor whose wishing for a reality that doesn't exist.

While the PvPers were the one's most guilty of ShowEQ, MQ, bindcamping and training. The PvE crowd were the most guilty of RMT, multiboxing, and Zerging, both sides contributed equally to server population death.

Ignoring the history of the past will simply doom you to repeat it, hope un-tempered by actuality is simply naivety. When Red has claimed 2 GM's for RMT and deviant corruption with well known ties to guild affiliations and left a dev with questionable motives and code changes in adherence to a very disreputable source; while the largest guild on the server was disbanded for multiple offences that went over-looked, what I'm saying is merely a reality that has to be embraced rather than ignored.

I really don’t care about any of that tbh, it’s still enjoyable to me because I love that era of EQ and I like the pvp dynamic. It’s just a fun game, there’s nothing else like it. I played on SZ back in the day.

I’ll agree with Tradesonred about the staff. I wish they gave af about red or more of af about P99 in general because it’s the best EQ Emu there is by a long shot.

Also, I always played legit and was able to get plenty of loot to satisfy my pixel lust without being in any inner circles or aim chats.

[Gustoo]

Pvp is the most fun way to play eq.

The scums scumming can’t stop that.

Gotta hope staff has iron spines and such.

Reality isn't decided by what you care about, trying to deny the truth because you don't like the reality of the situation is the literal definition of ignorance.

Nothing I stated has anything to do with feelings or opinions snowflake and I don't give a fuck if it invades your safe space, I said it because it was true.

Maybe we should make the server based on what promotes longevity and population and not what: "Duvian" likes, because I'm not your mom and nobody cares about you.

Aww, looks like you're triggered because someone has a different opinion of red than you. I really don't give af what you think either so it doesn't really matter and doesn't change how I feel about red, sweetheart. Like i care what "new guy" on 20+ year old elf sim forums thinks of me, LOL. Hilarious.

There's only one person here that seems super offended over the toxicity of red and doesn't want a new one to exist because they can't handle others enjoying something they don't. Maybe you should take a look in the mirror, you'll see who the real snowflake is.

Anyways, i'm out of here. I'll check back in another 10 years to see if there's a new red. Later nerds.
