But I didn't demean his evidence either: I literally said it was "awesome"!

Finally, someone actually responding to my points: thank you! Awesome quote: I learned something, and you have successfully weakened my argument.

I just don't get how you can read any "demeanment" ...

<Strago> Aradune you should also upgrade hate. The southwest corner is totally lame. People using NO tatics can just go in and pull away. Its not even worthy of having the name "Plane of Hate", it should be "Plane of get armor for free"
<Aradune> strago: yeah, it needs an upgrade. at first these zones are really hard, but then over time they get easier as people learn

dude must be serious he's coming at us with math

back in the day I definitely had several accounts, I remember my dad bitching about spending 80/month on his CC. I had 2 computers, one was an alienware and the 2nd was something i scavenged from family

the house had 3 phone lines, i couldn't talk my dad into getting DSL so yeah connection was annoying. the day we got cable broadband is up there with losing my virginity, no joke there, it was mind blowing.

We don't know that a safe spot in hate didn't exist, I doubt there is anyone alive on planet earth who knows for sure.

So if P99 staff didn't put in a safe spot on purpose (although i bet they did), then it's a happy accident.

hate tracking probably did occur, but not at scale. Those early power guilds had Verant staff as members, so they would know every single trick.

So while we can't say that the way we play on P99 in 2024 was the META back in 2000, it was absolutely possible in the year 2000

and being absolutely possible, is plenty of reason to be that way on p99

back in the day, we never came up with all of the emergent gameplay that we employ on P99 because on live we never had the time.

on P99 we have nothing but time

On Rodcet Nife in 1999 I raided Plane of Hate with the guild Avatars of Discord and we used 2 different safe spots to pull to. One along the east wall, another on the second floor. Totally safe to afk, no panthers etc

You know, I feel like I'm not doing RnF justice.

You're all a bunch of easy mode crybabies who known nothing about Classic EQ. You've played too long here and gotten soft.

You probably never even played it, and just pretended to play while looking over your older brother's shoulder. Stop being incompetent: you don't need a loser unclassically sitting 24/7 in Hate to play the game for you. Git gud!

Ah ... that feels much better.
