Of all people you decide to listen to someone who played casually for like 3 months.

FYI Faerie played at launch when there was no exp bonus and no /ooc.

They promptly quit in less than a month.

Wipe it or leave it pal.

agreed. changes of this nature could only be remotely considered positive if done in conjunction with a wipe and/or launching of a team server. if done haphazardly to the current server you'd simply further damage the already low population, offsetting any potential gains to be seen from velious.

That post just summed up my thoughts on that aspect of the subject (XP bonus being too high, being left in for too long, and being a mistake to have been done that way).

I listen to everyone on here and in-game.

Why would anyone group with a rogue when they can get double the XP solo?

why would anyone group with you when there is no anyone?

the grouping bonuses dont make a difference if there is nobody in your level range to group with anywhere, not that'd you'd know, because you shut off OOC and now you can't even reach out to confirm the sad fact that you're a sole nub in a scrub wasteland like will smith in i am legend except assbergers instead of zombies.

Thats what derubael doesnt get.

I dont understand how he came to the conclusion that suddenly people who log in to a dead zone (me playing in crushbone, every time) and forced to solo, you cut down their xp in half and theyre going to go oh shit man, im glad im now leveling half as fast, gonna stick around.

Just zone in crushbone derubael, what groups?

I played for about 3 months at server start, and a bit more than that on my druid. But how does this discredit my opinion? I'm one of the people that has never been level 60; if I were only concerned for myself I would probably want the exp bonus to stay in.

It's truly a shame that so many people have such strong feelings about their EZ mode solo exp. When the xp changes do go in, you'll really damage the pop numbers with your poor attitudes. I foresee the server suffering quite a bit from your self-fulfilling prophecies, because you would rather be right with a dead server than wrong with a better one. Why you guys scared of a little classic EQ? Anything bluebie can do I can do better, and that includes pve.

Deru, was any progress ever made on the transfer/copy of bluebies? That would need to be done at the right time, when red has decent numbers (to lend some confidence to the would-be transfers), bluebies are tired of their overcrowded endgame, and red's ruleset is in a good way. But beyond forcing PvP on the bluebies, which is the optimal solution, this is the only way I really see the server being helped in a meaningful way.
