You're not gettin' my point, man... 100 player pop, let's say at any time, 5 of those are new characters. How the hell do you plan on promoting pvp amongst those 5 players if they all start in different zones. You are asking for the impossible.

As I said before, I'm not arguing against increased experience, I'm arguing against people coming to this server knowing what to expect, then bitching that's what they actually find... it's a non-argument.

They didn't have to bitch about it on VZTZ because we designed around it. We knew we could never have the "classic" low and mid level pvp (or pve) experience due to the realistic approximation of server population.

I don't care if they make 42-50 the slowest fucking grind in any MMORPG ever in exchange for speeding up 1-41, but I'd rather see that happen and the players on the server be in range of eachother to pvp. I'd rather spend fifty hours getting through 42 than have to grind shit by myself through the mid levels with no other players around.

I'm a latecomer here, can you explain to me what VZTZ was, and why it's not still around if it was so perfect? Not trolling here, honest inquiry.

It wasn't perfect, dude. This server has lots of things that VZTZ didn't have (full database, better hardware, better support, working anti-hack, etc), but VZTZ also had things that this one doesn't have.


After four years (2007 to 2011) I think Keegan was just tired of supporting/running it on his own money and time.

It's not enough for most red players. Do you think players come here wanting to grind 200+ hours (and ya, it still takes this long) just as an entry fee to PvP?

No. They see PvP in the server name, and they remember the old Zek servers they played on where you could stop at level 20 or 30 if you so desired and spend all of your time just fighting other players. That isn't possible here.
