Thread recap:

Server repop is at 6 am. There are no server resets. Nilly logs in enough people at that time to clear mobs and represent 50%+ of the total population playing at that time of day.

OP wants some sort of variance or simulated server resets pushing mob repops around at different times so all players get a shot at PvP/PvE.

A couple Nihilum members calling this idea a request for GM favoritism and think people should deal with the server how it is.

The argument for a simulated reset is that classic had server resets all the time, spreading out the competition throughout the day and therefor allowing players from all time zones and lifestyles to participate in PvE/PvP content. On the other hand this wasn't necessarily on purpose, it just happened back in 1999-2001.

Retti also trolled a couple times but on the up side he hasn't derailed the thread leading to gay porn as he has in the past. His true agenda has been concealed so far.

RD/AZ showed up with 30 people to contest trakanon last week, nihi had 35 people on...

4 nihi died, 24 rd died.

please stop making excuses why you can't get any mobs.

i would never want "variance" as to when mobs spawn, it takes away from the pvp aspect on fighting for HVTs

that being said, i would like to see raids be later at night (or weekends) so i could make all the raids, and even fight over them.

but please stop using the excuse as repop times as why you can't contest over mobs.

I know i cant log in at 6am est, so that means i cant contest. Repop time is why i cant contest over mobs.

Again, you probably wouldn't know this as you were most likely still in kindergarten back in 99, but mobs were not routinely killed @ 6am on live. We slayed many a dragon and god back in 99, and it was 9pm at night, not 9am in the morning. Thanks though!

p.s., the current server ruleset that allows the routine slaying of all mobs once a week in a 3 hour timespan is far closer to a WoW type gameplay than simulated repops.

Yeah actually I did raid in the mornings, my guild I played in blue was a euro guild so I had to be online at their times. On red I didn't get to raid the things I could on blue mostly because I never made it high level i just pvp'd. That didn't stop the euros from logging in on nightly EST times to try and get mobs during THEIR morning times.

Kindergarten? cmon now, im young but still appear to be older a good portion of these people. When I hear there are people who played live back in early classic/kunark/velious eras that are 21-22 years old it makes me wonder how much younger they were. Because I sure as fuck was young and they are a few years younger.

I can put a lot of time into EQ if I so choose, however it is the rare day when I can log in at 6am EST to play EQ (and both of my RL friends are in the same boat). As long as the end game content is always done at this time, I will miss out on most of it. It isn't any big deal in the scheme of things, after all there are many alternatives to EQ EMU out there.

Nihilum for sure wants uncontested content. Each PvP fight means more work for the GMs so I am not surprised that they don't want the spawn times to shift. We are just guests here, if the GMs want to run a low key purple server where 40 players farm VP uncontested at 4am for their alts and blooming onions, then that is their prerogative.

k9quaint why didn't you guys login today at faydedar when you had a raid force camped ontop of us? Why don't you ever try to contest us for talendor or anything else other then sniping faydedar? Seems like all you guys care is for tranix now adays and selling items to gbank for dkp. We just had 32 in VP at 8pm EST, Why didn't you contest us in VP? Maybe because you need to contest other dragons first, like NOT FAYDEDAR in order to get to VP? Sounds like you don't know what way to go.

Typical Nihilum response. " come contest our 35 level 60's with an additional 30 alts camped out at Trakanon 10 am in the morning bros." cool story. Don't worry , I also felt like a real bad ass in nihilum topping dat dps parse and raping undergeared and under leveled newbs.

Had you read my post you would know it was at a time that it is very difficult for me to be online.

As for the rest of your post, did you really just ask why a bunch of 50 somethings new to the server are not contesting you in VP? Because it sounds like you RMT'd your character with VP key already done.
