With all of the complaining...

all new chars should start off with epic until pop goes up.

It seems that people really wanted a classic server with good exp etc. What boggles my mind is that we already had this in K&B and RED69. You had classic with devs who were working on content daily and would respond fast to posts. Granted K&B had a small twist, but they had leader boards, rewards for pvp and teams. I think it would have been better if it were just a modified good vs evil instead of 4 teams.

If people stuck around, we would have had Kunark and Velious content by now and a huge population. Other than things like Nexus being in the game and translocators, why did people turn their back on the server?

K&B was destined to fail because of the asshats running the server. Both of them were exiled from EQEmu because of their entitled, better-than-thou behavior.

Red69, if I recall correctly, was put up by Freakyuno. He had no experience running an EQ server, much less a PVP server. He's a good guy, but it didn't take him long to fold his cards and pop up a WOW emu instead.

Red99, on the other hand, is being run by the staff that has the best record for running a classic server. They have all of the research done on what should be in and what shouldn't - unlike some shitty reincarnation of a pvp server using the horribly flawed VZTZ database and coding.

But really, what it comes down to despite the previous points, is that the pvp community here will NEVER be happy. Period. They'd rather bitch about every single aspect of a server that they play on for free, quit playing, then troll the rest of the people that choose to keep playing and/or the staff running the server.

This.

The vztz faggot crowd that we got infested with when that shitserver died is a disgusting cess pool. This server would be better if that piece of shit never died and kept all those crybaby pussies there.

They knew what this server was going to be when they got TOLD it by Rogean. They still cried about it being classic Everquest. That's the level of retard this "community" is at.

Why would you name a server Red69? I mean seriously lol. Total fail.

[Rust1d?]

Who knows. They should have left K&B as the server to play and just made some adjustments.

For those interested in the PvE mob control route, this remains the choice of server. Kunark eventually will pop it up because there will be world PvP and ganking again.

If Red99 stayed even in terms of expansion progression with P99, it would definitely do better. A lot of blue players would rather have the option to fight over raid targets rather than deal with the fucked up care bear system on P99. But being that they get to raid in Kunark on P99 still, most wont make that switch.

Not to mention the itemization gets a lot better in Kunark. Monks with Ton Po's or Tstaff and fungi tunic? Oh snap, shit just got real. And as much as I hate to detract from the classic experience at all, xp should be bumped a bit. Especially for Kunark, where 50-60 is like pulling teeth.

The hotzone idea someone brought up would be neat to inspire more concentrated pvping. Having like 1.5x - 2x xp rates on weekends would probably get the server pop up as well.

Rust1d you don't know shit about this server you only made it to like level 14, not really qualified to make comments about anything other then raging after getting ganked trying to kite bandits.

Also I didn't play Red69 because the name was so retarded that I didn't even give it a try.

RED SIXTY NINE GET IT?

I made it to lv 23 before I realized that this server was a waste of time. Not sure why you think I raged, maybe you are thinking about yourself. I left when the population went under 100.
