A casual player won't invest massive amounts of time into this game.

What does a new player see?

A front page extolling the efforts of noble GMs to combat the RMT scourge. Specific rule sets regarding every aspect of EQ including camp rights, training, pvp, raiding and exploiting. A GM staff, employed specifically to enforce said rules.

When a new player comes to the server they inevetiably ask about boxing however there is not boxing on P99, this is a "legit server".

When there is a dispute, new players are told to petition it.

Unfortunately, it isn't until they've invested some serious time into te server that it becomes obvious P99 has the highest per capita rate of couples playing together of any MMO. Or unless its an inconsequential violation, the petition process with be unfairly compromised by a conflict of interest between certain end game raiders and the GMs who are supposed to be unbiased.

In reality it takes the average player a while to realize the facade of integrity and fair play only serves to spur the rotten core of RMT fueling the server.

Depends what you call casual and what you consider a massive amount of time.

How long do you think BDA members have invested?

I have always considered you pretty levelheaded judging by rnf standards, but there are casuals on this box that have invested years. Look at bda, highest populated guild on the server, it is a casual raid guild. There are members active that have played for years.


The main thing is, if you love this box, play on it. Nothing in life is without a little bit of corruptness, everyone should have learned this by the time they reached 16. Is p99 a little corrupt? Yes. But its still the best server there is out there. Just play the game for what it is, a game.

I forgot I spent all my old play character's cash to help get his gear up to par.

The best part about this thread isn't how embarrassingly pathetic Lazie is (protip: if you're unable to refute a single point your opposition has made and have already been called out for being an unoriginal bandwagoneer you probably shouldn't base your single rebuttal on worn out forum memes).

No, the best part is when all the old stories started coming out and all the old guard/TMO/Tiggles threw their two cents in, reminiscing over past glories, they touch on basically every major complaint previously voiced in this thread:

-casual references to drug abuse
-casual references to poverty/unemployment/welfare
-suspect relationship between players and staff, "I'll talk to staff about getting Stealin unbanned"
-lack of GM resolve/favoritism regarding rule breaking (welcome back Autotune)

This server is so corrupt. Not that it really matters but the casual player should at least know what they are getting into before they invest massive amounts of time into it.

Sadly this thread will most likely get deleted any time now because its imperative to protect real life information (regardless of authenticity) of alleged real money trader.

Stay classy P99.

This man speaks the truth, It's all true.

And nothing you can say will change that. So either get with the program or stop playing.

Or just play to have fun and to hell with what other people are doing.

I don't have friends, I have people who slay dragons with me.

You where an employee not a person.

True. I guess I was thinking more along the lines of time per week, not an accumulation of time over years. Blanket statements like mine don't really convey their true intent. It was early and I was rushed, my bad.

I absolutely agree, there will always be a little corruption in anything. Even the most noble causes will have their bad eggs and moments of failed integrity.
