I'm so not mad bro. I'm trying to chill in EC and get my immersion on.

I was drinking coffee one day when I had an idea: Why doesn't somebody turn off global ooc and auction? Then, Project1999 came along. They turned off global ooc and auction. I don't like to brag, but I think I'm pretty much a genius. I'm a cleric, and Project1999 was my idea.

This made me chuckle

You're banned now, KillerBlade. Insulting developers for free service = stupid.

It's interesting that the EC tunnel developed overnight... making it more of a success than I thought it would be. People claiming that this isn't classic.. wtf ever, seriously.

Population versus auction, there were more people in EC yesterday than there should have been. In prekunark on Erollisi Marr, trading started as Gfay only on Sundays. It later changed to EC permanently. When this happened, you could expect to find 30-50 people there at night time, and around 100 people there during the day.

I mean really.. the live zones crashed.. if tons of people got in there. What was it.. around 175 people in EC the first time I saw it crash. We've gotten like 150 in there just for a giveaway event the other night.

Being able to sell to 600 people at a time... was NOT an option from 1999-Luclin.

This.

Also it matters what people think even though it might not reflect the reality.

But you offer a compelling reason to at least give EC a chance before giving up and reversing.

So you're sitting around on a game's forum replying to someone sitting on a game's forum he dont play? How pathetic can someone be? Move on - waste your time on something else... or drink a galleon of bleach.

My favorite part is when you got banned, haha.

On Xev server, way back in the day, EC tunnel was the Antonica auction zone and GFay was the Faydark auction zone. Has anyone been auctioning in GFay? Just curious.

Just going to toss my opinion out there about the new changes and EC.

Well, it worked. I do have to say that. EC is how i've remembered it and it really is a blast. It brings back a sense of competing prices, cutthroat deals, and a place you can go no matter what you may need.

On the flip side of this, is the server now feels dead without the global chat in my opinion. That chat made the server feel alive in a way, and gave people who were off doing their own thing something to do in their downtime. Although, I do believe the chat should be a bit more restricted with less drug talk and things people may find offensive.

Great job anyway with the outcome of the EC tunnel and trading extravaganza, and if global OOC doesnt come back I'm sure everyone will adapt, but to me it just made the game feel a bit more alive and exciting instead of staring at a mana bar during downtime.

Edit: Just thought of it, but its also much harder to find groups, rezzes, or anything along them lines now. Where I used to be able to find a group when i logged in, I have found myself logging in less because I dont have the two hours it takes to run from zone solb, to lower guk and back and forth trying to find a group. The global channels made that a bit more accessible.

As I said in another thread.. By 1AM EST last night there were only 15 people over level 15 in EC and only a handful of people selling stuff. It's pretty much going to be impossible to find items unless you play during peak hours or use the forums.

EC seems to be going alright now, but I am somewhat interested to see whether it is sustainable or if this is just the initial thrill of it being back.

Strange that your server worked the way it did Nilbog. I really don't remember the population of GFAY on Povar ever dropping below 150 and was generally well over 200 selling items and nearly any time of the day. Even when it split to Xev, Gfay was still packed with people.
