lol you dont like hearing things from people that don't fit into your evil picture huh?

Loy averages what 80-100 now, with people dropping out by the day. Considering half are boxes you have an average of 40-50 people. So population isnt a good point to make.... I think alot of vztz people lost their mq crutch and realised they couldnt compete. So they take the loser way out and complain about every detail. Thats why you all went to play on a broken server, that you can run mq on, crash zones and so on. These are all facts and the only ones who dont agree are the losers who I speak of.

Well anybody with half a frontal lobe would know that a putting together a full group at level 8 would be pretty unlikely. Which is why I chose a race/class combination that can solo decently if need be. Even if it is a bit slower, I still get a kick out of the game.

Be cynical if you wish, but, regardless of what you might believe, those of us that play on Red enjoy it and will continue to do so.

the winning point is boxing in a low populated server. even more when uve build a server with classic exp and 0 groups in low and midlevel. no casual can and will be attracted this way.

this, or

you restart it without all those cheats like when it was on red99 opening day a year ago.

dont get me wrong, id love to see red99 prospering but right now it is going nowhere else than being blue with one guild zerging all bosses and the rest of players coming and going without being able to build a solid playerbase

I'll just start the very long drum roll for Kunark launch now and check the server pop

Destin working the wolfram style of argumentation pretty hard in this thread. (yt iz bad cuz I said it iz with multiple conclusory arguments rawrrr).... retardation

For all your many scholarly accomplishments you frequently boast, you never mastered reading comprehension.

I never spoke against yt or any of those other features, only said they were manufactured reasons to pvp and unnecessary when theres content to compete over.

What is funny is now they are saying that we are the nay sayers....


LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

You guys fucking cry and /q if your demands are not met within 35-45 seconds of you demanding it.

(Like i've always said you FF/Holo fags sound like only child's who need to be popped in the mouth for being ungrateful fucks)


Everyone on the server and on the forums were simply saying, things like YT and guard assist aren't NEEDED to play EQ PVP. If you need YT and Guard assist, you're a fucking faggot hololost

It is unfortunate to see the level of discussion brought to this level of retardation.

I agree that this is the best 1999 PvP emu server ever, but only because of the same reasons Blue99 is the best non-PvP emu server: lack of glitches, bugs, and as close to classic as possible.

But the server is in critical condition. People who play here (I still do) have fun. But it really just is Blue 99 with the occasional PvP encounter. It is not really a PvP server. The first week I felt like a PvP player, always doing /who, playing in 3rd person mode zoomed out so I don't get ambushed. That sort of stuff never happens now. The server is more sparsely populated than is bearable.

Nihilum seem like ok folks in game. But on the forum Trollborn, Dullah and others are dragging them down, like TMO's forum trolls. I understand you log in for a batphone and it seems like the server is thriving, because everyone on the server is in your zone. Perception is EVERYTHING. But it is a mirage, an oasis in a desert. The rest of the server is a barren wasteland. It could have fluorished from the getgo. Relaunch (not a wipe) and a merge is the only way.

I am having fun as a 45 mage, soloing in the Mad Max style post-apocalyptic low population world that is Red99... but unlike Mad Max... there are not even two factions to fight against each other. What kind of a future is that?

If any one of the Hololost or Nihilum can give me one good (non self-serving) reason why a relaunch server and merge down the road would not work, I will be quite impressed.

1 simple question for all Red 99:
Is Red99 everything you had hoped for it to be?

Probably not.

Bottom line is the server started out fantastic... lots of PvE, PvP, skirmishes, guilds, adventures... but now it is just a bunch of PvE, random gank, 5v1s, 1 large guild.

The server started out so awesome, became tainted and most of us left. Now some of us are back trying to make lemonade from some lemons. But there is still a sour taste in our mouths and the Norrath's only got so much sugar.

Relaunch and merge... only way.
