Competition is not griefing. You shouldn't use comparisons you don't understand.

Me forcing you to sit and wait 19 hours or fail because you lack discipline and I do not, is competition. Loser.

Okay, this is completely off topic, but for some reason this reminded me of those endurance challenges they used to do on Big Brother. God, I hope I'm not the only person who used to watch Big Brother...

I like the last one on the list. Literally just how long can you stand here pressing a button. Now I think we all can relate to that one.

That's not competition, nor discipline. It's called busy work. Anybody can sit in a lobby for 19 hours if they were forced to. It requires no skill whatsoever. It's also unhealthy. There's a reason why no such activity exists as a sport or professional game.

That same wait could exist with DPS racing or full PvP anyway. You are strictly advocating for the least interactive and most braindead option.

That scenario doesn't even exist in many p99 situations with the unclassic PnP, because waiting somewhere for a camp is useless. Whoever is there already just hands it off to someone else in their farming guild. You could sit somewhere for an entire month with the current rules and not get the camp. Have fun with that.

On Topic: I'm still debating whether to start a troll or an ogre Shadowknight. Deep down I want the sexy troll, but that maximum experience penalty makes me hesitate.

Off Topic: I believe the overwhelming majority (every other person on this thread so far) want a PnP ruleset regardless of how classic it is.

Zuranthium, your thinking by winning this argument it's going to take you back to the days of the old west when MMO was young wild and free. The truth is you can't go back, and the only real freedom you can have is offered in Jesus Chris our Lord and Savior.

Edit:Jesus is the answer.

I would consider it more annoying than competitive. Everquest athletes here mostly agree.

The result of being greifed off a server because you lost is posting on the forums like Zur has been for the last few weeks lol

Guy got rolled hard on p99

Sorry I passed the camp off to my friend even though I told you that you were next on the list 16 hours ago but we are winning. Loser.

Everything you're writing is opposite land. It's like somebody who loses once in chess and then never tries again, saying "lol that game sucks, solitaire is better" whenever the subject is brought up. You can't just wave off critical game/design theory with such insipid logic. People who want to do something more interesting with their life than play solitaire non-stop are not "lol got rolled". Discussing better games than solitaire is more productive than playing solitaire.

I feel very badly that you think playing a watered-down version of an outdated game is the pinnacle of gaming, or a better usage of time in life than countless other activities.
