It seems that most problems on this server would be solved if more people were on the server.

Is there an argument to not have more players?

How can we change things to get more players?

What is keeping people from playing here?

How can we address those issues?

wipe it clean from all the exploit!

This is why I quit. Sad to say but the only way to get me (or my brothers and friends) back on the server... is to eliminate the server as is, restart it with all the exploits patched up, and hope the shitty assholes don't get back to exploiting other things

server will never be wiped or restarted.

ever.


this is not VZTZ.

As I've stated in other thread Ban by Ip/Mac instead of account and wave bye bye to exploiting assholes for good

You keep saying ban by IP/Mac like this is some strong armed tactic.. You do know most computers these days have dual network cards... And if they don't a Network card is like $10,00... Which would also reset your IP Addy... Please stop posting this useless information until you get a clue wtf your talking about.

IP address is typically static and assigned by your ISP. Banning by IP is effective up until a proxy is used. Mac addresses are attached to network interfaces and can be changed.

Both of these methods are far more effective than banning by account. This is a fact. YES people can get around it, but it is a serious inconvenience for your average joe who just wants to scam and cheat their way through EQ

[Hangerbaby]

EQ was originally a thing because of the community. The community gets ruined by very few people when it is already small in size.. that's probably all I need to say about that.

In response to OP, clearly the way to get more players is strip their blue accounts, sending them into a fit of rage, which they then migrate over to our server seeking blood. If the server pop goes up at all in the coming weeks, we can all thank Lord Nizzar.
