Traveling between 120 zones is just as big of a problem as being spread across 120 zones. It takes hours to get anywhere if you're a melee, and finding a bind is a lot more challenging than it was on the active live servers where every city had a bunch of casters hanging around.


I'd encourage Sirken/Rogean/Nildog/whoever to just play on their box if it's possible to. Then they can adjust as they see fit.
I really hated the idea of Translocaters when I went from P99 to Legacy, but after awhile I realized how necessary it was. The emu community is small, the red emu community is even smaller, and the fact that its PvP eliminates any remaining possibility of someone willing to help with anything unless their same guild (and with Kunark doubling the zones + Kunark evac policy ugh)... so, ya add it.

Soulbinders is kind of pushing it, but I guess you could use the same argument, except part of EQ is trying not to die hours away from your bind point. If you had translocaters you really don't need soulbinders.

Definately no to books.

I made a good contribution and u deleted it, can we get some rulesets regarding what we can and cannot talk about plz, because mine was a non trolling response to supreme, when his comment is insighting trolling.

I provided a constructive agreement and recommendation as well as peacefully disagreeing on a topic. I thought that this is what this thread was designed for?

So leaving stragglers behind who need to take up forever to catch up to where 90% of the pop is a better idea ?

Only you could misinterpret increasing group bonus as a way a way in which to, somehow, alienate or leave someone behind.

Bravo sir.

You have become better at stupid (250).

Give Sirken a chance here. This is the first time HE has asked these questions, so this is unrelated to other staff asking them before.

Destin please realize that increasing group bonus IS a good idea when there is enough of a playerbase TO ACTUALLY GROUP. you do realize that a full group on r99 at the current population with no boxing would account for roughly 5 to 10 percent of the total playerbase online per group. No to mention of those actually in range to group with each other, are KOS to each other in different guilds, so that 5 to 10 percent is actually more like 15 to 20 percent of the possible unguilded playerbase. The people online are not all in nihilum, which obviously would benefit most from a group bonus due to its large number of members.

Its a numbers game, and right now the numbers don't justify modifying grouping.
