Reset classic server

[DorcasSilverthreads]

Just an idea... I know I for one would be pumped about losing my level 60 and multiple level 50+ characters and having to reroll with bronze and fine steel... but maybe i'm just crazy.

So what is stopping you now?

why dont some of you carebear raider guilds move over to the pvp server then, killing a raid target might be worthy of bragging about when you had to kill the other guild in order to take it.

or continue farming the 50 thousandth level 40 item for no purpose other than to put on a bank alt because the other 400 people on your server already have one then logging on for the big "but we were here first!" argument.

If I want to pvp - I'll go play a pvp game - like the classic DAoC emulator or any modern mmorpg currently out. EQ's pvp is just isn't good..at all.. so I'd rather just focus on the actual good parts of EQ rather than something that was put originally put in half-assed (by the EQ staff not P99's staff) as a gimmick/niche servers.

Is it ironic that 60 percent of the people voting want it wiped then? If so many people are against it where are they on this pole?

You do realize that for most online games only a small fraction regularly read the forums

wiping this server would cut the population in half at best

For an emulator for an older game like this.. that is based on classic EQ - I'd say most people check out the forums every few days.

It isn't like WoW where kids use their parents CC and don't know much about the internet in general and how to use computers other than for gaming and facebook.

Darwoth makes good sense here. I only log in on blue to buff folks in EC now and again.

I wouldn't seriously play blue ever again...and without a red alternative, I'd move on. I love EQ, and red allows for true competition. The people that thought they were going to be soloing PK kings aren't. (With a nod to Lovely, however). Most of the population has banded together, and dying to a PK is the exception now, not the rule. (Unless it's 4am and no one's in CB but you and 4 griefers, lol).

I was here almost on day one. I loved the experience for the most part on blue...but it's not, nor will it ever be, what we all remember. Going through all the motions on blue again would not be something I want to do...because the end result would be the same.

At least on red, everyone has the power to change things. Guild alliances can break bigger guilds' holds on zones and content. Politics can play a huge role, but PvP resolves all issues.

With the right mindset, red is incredibly fun. Even when you die 15 times to some random griefer...the game then becomes outleveling them and then hitting back...or hitting back with no hope of winning, like I tend to do. (Or catching them with their pants down, and making them pay. Whatever works).

I’m against a server reset at this point, for reasons that have already been mentioned by other people here.

But if there is a reset, I would prefer that my current characters be frozen instead of deleted. This way everyone would experience the server fresh start, but with the option to go back to their “old” characters at some point and continue from there without losing all the time that was invested in those characters.

But the way I see it, the server is fine as it is. Don’t wipe it.
