Consistency... That's what it's all about. Keep it the way it was, no extra, no less.

bonuses are bonuses because they are temporary.

if it was the statuesque, then it would not be an xp "bonus"

bonuses come and go, and the pop no longer maxes out at 45 people. you can argue that the people only showed up for the xp bonus, but i could argue that the bonus was in when the pop maxed at 45 peoople.

I'm guessing the meeting with rogean/nilbog didn't happen or didn't go well.

Population went to shit
EXP bonus put in
Population slowly rises to today's number which is a big success
Exp bonus taken out
Population bitches and threatens to quit

I don't get the argument about the population being 45 while the bonus was in.. because shortly after it went in is when the population went up and made it to today's numbers.

You speak as if the xp bonus is like the weather - something that just comes and goes.

You control them, they are put in for a reason and taken out for a reason.

My impression is to grow server population and give new players an incentive to stick out the long grind before they can join most people on the server and do what they came here for, pvp.

I could see the argument that the server has 500 ppl on it and now we will reduce the bonus because there are more then enough people to group with or the server is reaching population limit for the servers.

The exp bonus doesn't BRING people here - it keeps them here playing. There are always people rolling in to try it out to see how it goes. Then they realize hey, I wanted to play a war and there is no one around to group with, or they get level 15 and can't solo blight blues anymore and feel stuck. Sme come to the forums but most just quit like I did and don't look back.

With Lord Sirken confirming what we all were dreading, then perhaps now is also the time for the Devs to remove exp loss on pvp death.



shiz aint classic, not working as intended, free smallmee.

Sirken I don't think anyone is disagreeing with you on the bonuses part. We are just concerned for the health of the server.

Losing the exp bonus does not affect me personally. I look at the the server as a whole and where it has come in the last few months, we started going in the right direction and now we are messing with a good thing.

Let the server thrive for a few months before making drastic changes like this. It's rogeans server and he can do what he wants but to make good things great you listen to the people who put the time in everyday.
