How do we get more players?

[Tippett]

people who dont wanna do the huge grind should play another fucking game

its everquest dude, sometimes i get the idea to make it more casual but im really sick of the "it takes too long excuse"

if you dont want to play on a low pop pvp everquest server then dont play on a low pop pvp everquest server

[Tippett]

btw my enc is like level 38 with 2 days/played

shits fast as hell even my ranger was 46 in 3 weeks and that was soloing

Thats a straw man. Im not saying you should 1-50 in 2 days, thats not what im saying, at all.

I think theres a sizeable portion of the server thats too fucking dumb or is incapable to put themselves in the shoes of new guys starting on the server or too self-absorbed in what they want instead of what the server needs, for the problem to ever be resolved.

Here Sirken, take my towel, im done.

You missed it.

That's a pretty ambiguous quote, and if you're going to take it the way you are then we should also expect PvP text to be in soon, which to me seems unlikely.

Thats the first instance im aware of, 10 days ago

I dont talk only about xp loss in pvp, but to me its the #1 problem with the server, by far to me.

- Lowbies getting griefed off the server

- The grind to even 50 is huge, so people dont wanna add more grind on top so they dont pvp making red a de facto purple server. (Its fucking boring with no pvp compared to the classic Rallos experience)

- Top zerg guild farming no contest the best camps and zones

Blablafuckingbla im getting tendonitis typing this shit down for the 2 millionth time

I was under the impression that the exp loss from PvP wasn't really an issue until higher levels. I know in the 30s that PvP xp loss is no big deal at all. PvE deaths bother me a lot more, and even with those I haven't spent time looking for rezzes. You really seem obsessed :/

I am a new player to this server, and you're hardly making any sense whatsoever.

ive leveled like 72 toons here dude and definately not the most liked, im qualified for the shoes of new guy thing trust me

think i said before, if you want to play a low population eq pvp server with increased exp then play

if not then dont, altho i remember u were kinda cool in /ooc to converse with maybe give it a whirl for a week see if u like it for once and for all if ur still not sure

[SamwiseRed]

how to get moar players?

quit being dicks and be more social

kinda like social drinkers, alot of players are social gamers. all the soloing and give me give me is no good. i get more group invites now that i dont play then i ever did when i logged on for 3-4 hours at a time. (i do appreciate the invites btw)

good luck brothers.

Thats what ill do, im just throwing the towel now and coming to terms that im not going to play. Theres been a massive influx of constructive feedback in the recent weeks and by now im guessing response will be what its often been. A non-response where you cant tell if they agree with feedback, disagree, if theyre thinking of taking parts of feedback in and tweaking stuff, nothing.

Unfortunatly, an EQ pvp server where the devs make the ruleset discourage pvp does not appeal to me, especially not how it allows the top zerg guild access to any end game content it wants without them having to fight for it. Its miles away from my classic experience, not what EQ was to me.

Ill check back in 6 months or something or when Velious hits.

Thats the problem, alot of dicks. Solution is simple but not implemented. (Hint: it starts with xp and ends with loss)

Its fucking ridiculous and lazy for devs to place this problem strictly on the head of players.

Thats like a car company making cars that go to 300 mph and blaming the crashes solely on the idiots who ride the cars.

[Tippett]

this server has increased exp to make up for the exp loss, its fine

people dont want to die because of embaressment, not the exp loss

anyone withcommon sense knows this

i just loot my corpses i dont even bother people for rezzes, the exp is that fast

[Smedy]

hate to say it but the dicks are needed.

if everyone was overly nice to eachother i'd become the dick, cause fuck that, i play to have conflict, i can be nice to you in real life you faggot fuck
