Rogean/Sirken/Nilbog,

Set aside 1-2 hours of your time for a moderated IRC session with the red playerbase. The powers that be (you guys) should probably be on some kind of voice comms so you can answer questions unitedly. Either make it so that people can't talk unless they have the floor or keep messages down to 1 per 2 minutes. Basically players will take turns asking questions/making suggestions then you guys return with a response. This forum tagging isn't going anywhere and this kind of shit needs to be done in real-time. If this is asking too much, perhaps it's time to reevalute your commitment to the project and possibly talk about letting someone else take the steering wheel.

First, not to sound like a brown nose, but as a new EQ player, I appreciate the idea that the GM's are actually listening.

That being said, something I think would help with the balance, and possibly cut down on the corpse camping/greifing, is to allow casters to come back from a PvP death at something more than 0% mana.

When a caster is slain by another player, especially if they're killed near their bind (which does happen, though not as much as people complain about), they're put at a serious disadvantage, requiring them to med, sometimes for a rather long time, before they can join the battle, or even have a chance to invis, or shadowstep, etc, to get away, whereas a melee character can get up from a PvP death, and immediately leap into the fray once again.

Again, I've only just started playing EQ about a month ago, and this is admittedly my first server, but I enjoy the shit out of this server. The people are mostly good people (despite the forum posts to suggest otherwise), and the server has my immersion factor to 11.

Sadly there's no way to actually prevent bind camping, other than to plug, but that's just part of the game.

this will not come easy for most of you as you feel some sense entitlement, or that you really are special/important.

this is not to everybody,

as i have said before, i have spoken with Nilbog. and i have sent the same topics of discussion to Rogean with my own and Nilbogs opinions attached. that doesn't mean Rogean is going to simply stop everything hes doing to rush out non classic features in an attempt to ensure the happiness of a bunch of loud mouthed, ungrateful kids with a disgusting sense of entitlement.

all it means is that Rogean is now aware of what the players want, and he knows how Nilbog and myself feel about those topics, and so it gets dumped on his plate with everything else.

that does NOT mean the things u want get bumped to the front of the line.

but please by all means, keep on acting the same way, and see if it yields different results.

ill be closing this thread, and ill update it after Rogean gets back to me. ive never given an exact date because i dont have one. when it comes back to me, i'll share it with you.

until then, have fun and good luck!

Smells like the thread Amelinda made like 5 months ago that never actually materialized in to anything even though we discussed shit for like 50 pages.

Love Sirken, but we've seen how this goes over a dozen times.
A+ response

/sigh

this ENTIRE thread consists of being "discussed visibly on forums." and of course there's nothing to patch, it was just a few days ago that i updated to say we've been busy but have not forgotten. and 4 days later you shit up my thread with this? you don't let things like common sense or logic dictate your responses, and i like that. way to break away from the herd.
