sure a handful of vztz kids rage quit because they could not handle classic EQ xp rates, or the fact that this server was not being run as an online FPS.

as a staff member, would u like to know the complaint i hear most of all? because they all have to do with griefing.

this may be a hard pill to swallow, but being the loudest opinion does NOT make you the majority opinion.

This might be a hard pill to swallow but you could die tomorrow and it literally have no effect on the server. What we needed was DEVELOPER and ADMIN communication - Not GM's who can't even access the database and make game changes. Not that I am saying GMs are not helpful in the greater scheme of things but this post was not ment for you or Amelinda.

I actually played this server. We had a guild roster of 40-45 players in I.F before server even rolled out with 90% of them being PvP vets. You think the reason 25-30 of those players quit before the end of December was because of GRIEFING and not the terrible XP rate, No global, guards not assisting, 80% Spell Dmg, Insta land root, Whirl Till U Hurl OP, Kunark mobs being in classic. Exploiting Wands, Level Pathing, and dragons and shit like Ice comet and Harvest and DL evac being in since day 1. (Just to name a few) I know you are smarter then that bro.

actually that's completely bogus, i'm pretty sure i knew what i was getting into (i.e. griefing) when i searched out an everquest pvp emulator server 13 years after the game died

news flash: not all of us are eq pvp noobs (maybe you are, idk) and we realize that griefing comes with the territory, griefing is the reason we play

we stopped playing due to staff basically neglecting the server and doing nothing
Not everyone who enjoys PvP likes your form of it.

I love to grief as much as anyone else, but this isn't a server with 2000+ people and it rarely gets a good influx of new sheep to kill so you shouldn't been reaping more than can be sowed.

interesting theory but i'm pretty sure that nobody loves eq classic pvp so much that they sought it out 13 years later, googled an emulator server, installed titanium, took all the time to patch and figure out how to play red99, and then were so shocked and appalled that pvp was happening that they ragequit

people know exactly what eq pvp entails (griefing) and that is why they love it

people quit because of 0 development and staff neglect

Uhhh, I don't know where it's written down in the manual, but who says this is what EQ PvP has to entail?

unlike you, most of us have actually pvp'd on eq before red 99 and know how it works.

nobody came to a eqemu pvp server to pvp and then quit because pvp was happening, pretty sure pvp happening was the reason we came in the first place

the reason we stopped was because of staff neglect

- 0 badly needed development work done since day 1
- no staff communication
- lone guide constantly threatening to beg rogean to shut down the server

but no, you're right, the reason people stopped playing was because they didn't know pvp was going to happen on a pvp server

My god, there, he said it.

So why dont you guys take a long hard look at xp loss in pvp?...

lots of crap
Actually, he said nothing of the sort.

Please, give up this retarded cause you spam in every thread. You are almost as bad as holo on yt/gooc, or steaks about exp rates.

In leveling up multiple characters and pvping on them all, never once was I worried about the xp loss from pvp. Its literally 1-2 dark blue kill per pvp death.

Also, didnt you say you quit? Wtf? Why spam this ridiculous crap and make the server look flaky for new guys?

Bro, your words hurt me so deeply... I cannot express how sad I am at the thought that you don't think I'm a real man, and that you know my history and past so well...

Thank you for enlightening me.

P.S. PvP does not equal Griefing. You came here expecting to grief and get griefed, not PvP. No one's pissed off about PvP'ing.

Griefing isn't pvp.

If you think it is, you're a hilarious joke and don't know what pvp is. You probably started pvping on VZTZ.
