[Poll by Post] Red99: A short questionnaire for our Blue community members

[freez]

Well you didnt ask a question and the only thing you can loot off players on red 99 is the coin they are wearing.

Cool [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Was just responding to the poll.

I suddenly keep thinking I kind of wish I could just elect to do PVP, and type something like /pvp and I would be ported to a PVP server, where everyone was out looking for blood... then port back to my normal blue server for relaxing EQ fun, I would really enjoy that. Akin to electing to do PVP in WoW. heh, ironically if item loots were in on a system something like that, I could be convinced that it might actually be a fun & rewarding risk vs. reward.

God, I really hope I'm not pissing anyone off by saying that, its just something I personally would enjoy. Sorry, Red99 if that is disrespectful to your work for me to suggest something like that! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Only thing that annoys me is watching blue players ask questions like theyre stepping on eggshells afraid to ask a question or something.

Red and blue players are the same. You have the occasional reject that nobody can stand. I dont like some on red but nothing compared to people like lron just talking to themselves all day.

I played a little way back in 2003-4 on Rallos, the excitement and thrill are there, especially for those that know the game well enough to take the fear factor out of it. The problem that I have, and I would guess a lot of people, is leveling/hunting alone. PvP is fun, in controlled circumstances, but when you are trying to catch up with the pack and you have a group of friends/guildies camping the best xp zones and you have no one to call for backup...

You should give the red server a try. You can play on blue and red at the same time so maybe just during down time to start things off while you hang out in EC tunnel or wait for a camp.

You have had to solo in the past but starting anytime in the next month or two will be a great way to avoid that on red. There are a lot of people helping with PL and starter gear as well as some new groups starting up that are doing it all on their own. The community on red tends to surprise a lot of people because of the bad rep they have on the forums.

THIS!

Are you saying I can open a second window, and have a character camping some xp in red, while I'm doing the same thing on blue?

I'll do that, hell yea. sounds like a great way to kill downtime! while also getting me into red!

Basically, more propoganda! Show me videos of these 100 man battles, show me videos of people having a great time on red, and they will come.

After thinking about it more, that's how I would like to answer the poll, more propoganda will get me to play on red, show me how easy/fun it is, and not going to be painful and that will do it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
