One idea to solve all these problems and ensure end game pvp is just one simple thing.

max 1 or 2 maybe 3 characters per ip or something like that. limit the amount of alts and endless accounts and sharing

Idiot.

Account sharing was against the rules under Verant's reign.

Should not be allowed here.

Way easier to just ban people sharing accounts on the spot than to do all this investigation of who took what first with account strippings etc. Banning known accomplices/associates to people who are involved in this kind of behavior is a good thing. What's the point of banning or suspending someone when a "GOOD PAL" is on stand by to get you right back in the game scumming it up with a lvl 60 alt?

Just give everyone lvl 60 with BiS gear, let the greef pvp begin

Boxing was also legal. Let's leave pandoras box closed

You sound like me 2 years ago. Holocaust won battles but lost the war. We came into this server trying to VZTZ it. Rolled what we knew would be the most power end game classes and tried to pvp a guild who was ahead of us w pve knowledge. Combine that with us building no road for our melee to get 50 on, it slowly fell apart. Our bad for not adjusting our play style to how this server was. Instead we tried to brute force our methodology and it fell short hard.

Change your game, at least you can control that. You or anyone else has zero power how this server is ran.

Well, first lets not even mention that the LEAD GM on the server was being paid off. It only took a year for her to be banned from the project. And that we were banned by the server administrator. Mid December until the day we were banned in early January we were destroying Nihilum. The biggest reality is that we were never going to play this thing for long, none of us would have grinded it for even a year straight, much less 2.5 years like Nizzar. The server rules give way too much advantage to a zerg guild, and zerg guilds in EQ are already strong as hell. So you have players like me who refuse to play in a guild of zerg recruits.

Anyway, Hughman has been outspoken about how Nihilum was getting tooled by us back then. What can you do when Lead GM and Lead Staff are against you? Lol.

I'm not trying to convince you, just telling it how I remember it. I still believe that had holocaust not been banned for doing the exact same thing Nihilum did multiple times that we would have lost a lot more than 2 Nagafens.

Less targets in an item loot system when you join the zerg guild.

Lol, I was one of the first level 50 random PKers on Rallos Zek in 1999, back in the days of Aakor/Ennart/Castin. Oh, I was also the highest level neutral on SZ in the top neutral guild before I quit. And, damn I forgot to mention, I'm one of the best RTS players to ever live, having been top ranked in every game I've played.
lol
cast is such a NOBODY
its painful to read that
cast good at 2 things: propaganda and AOE (allegedly)
outside of that, shrug

[Zalaerian]

Yea agree the mass ban / suspend killed it for most

[Gaffin 7.0]

cast is alive?
