Check it, hot zone solution:


... (lazy spam) ...

Everyone knows about the current modified zones. What we're talking about is a hot zone.

A hot zone implies a singular zone that has additional XP bonus on top of whatever else is already in place. Being a single zone means you crunch the population into that area, hence competition and good leveling times. (I would even suggest making hot-zones unable to land oor healing, to counter alt dreamteams).

But you already knew that, you're just looking for an excuse to stop the discussion and point it to the only thing you're interested in: more content to the detriment of the server.

Not.

I have a lot of time invested in this server. I give items and buffs and free PL's to newbs whenever I am sitting around. I enjoy playing EQ just like the rest of the nerds on this forum.

I care about the server and its longevity.

I just don't take the same approach as the rest of the crybabies. I don't think that bitching at the devs and flooding the forum with "This server is dead" is the right solution.

Its not dead. It's dieing. When more people leave than join or stay... that is a negative outcome, and when that continues... it will go to 0 unless something is done. What that something is is up for debate, but we all know that nothing will be done, so... Whatev.

wow, soo many delusional Nihilum here.

This box isn't for you, its for all of us. We don't need content progression we need new players (or ones coming back). This can be fixed with some good xp hot zones, which increases competition and leveling. Make the hot zone move every day...

Optionally temporary xp bonus to 42 will do the same, minus risk of oor healed alts holding hot-zones.

These aren't the reasons people have left.

This isn't vz fucking tz. EQ vets from Rallos, VZ and TZ (which I am) don't play here for some call of duty fantasy pvp. No one wants to sit around in classic EQ for a year with nothing new to compete over. Trying to repopulate this server with new people when 300 level 50s are sitting inactive is not the way to fix the problem. Everquest is ABOUT the pixels you fucking morons (which is why you have 100s of hours invested in gear (pve)). Its about progressing your character with the additional challenge of PVP, not about some pointless pvp pipe dream that FF and Holocaust has created in their own mind. Those of us with real pvp skills go play competitively in BF and Call of Duty, not shit up our MMOs with our ridiculous vision of being king of some retarded custom pvp box.

That said, this box isn't for us? 90% of the server has left for the very reasons we bring up here: boredom and a loss of hope in staff. They want to see the server get updated, and have a hope that kunark will ever come out. At this point, they just don't see it happening with dozens of people stuck with petitions for 3-5 months, rogean missing in action and devs telling us we can't have classic systems.

Its not about there being a lack of pvp. The average player doesn't share your view of this server or want to deal with being guilded with a bunch of shit talking assclowns. They just want to play Everquest, and enjoy some pvp on the side. Thats what classic EQ was about 13 years ago, but most of you wouldn't know that. You shouldn't be surprised when they join Nihilum. Just look at the trash many of your guildmates post. Look at your image. Its not everyone, but it doesn't matter. Learn to manage your guilds. Your guild shits on every good suggestion in hopes of recreating EQ FPS instead of just enjoying what EQ has to offer.

Our loss of people has nothing to do with any of these reasons you've stated. Theres thousands of players willing to play classic EQ with classic EXP, but with the players leaving in droves waiting for the "accelerated timeline", theres no one staying around for new players to level up with. Bringing out kunark gives every solo and guilded player something to work towards and fight for. Stop trying to resurrect a dead era, shits played out. Classic Everquest is cashed fellas.

The level 50's who quit didn't all do so because of lack of content. Many of them quit because there aren't any high end guilds that appeal to them. Others quit because there's a lack of pvp. Others quit because the community is full of incorrigible idiots. Kunark isn't going to bring those people back, and I suspect you know that already.

Ever word in your post maybe true.

Dosent change the fact that the only thing that can be done that will bring back some people is: release more content/kunark.

Thats the only mechanism/tool left in the bag of tricks to boost pop that is beyond the playerbases hands, and thus the only thing we as players can "bitch" about.

So without further adieu: WTB more content.

[Zereh]

Retention of existing players and enticing former players to come back would be the quickest and smartest way to boost server pop. Why cater to a maybe player instead of to those who have played / do play?

[jjgerman]

because the people left on this server are horrible humans, in game and out of game, need new blood for this server to survive.
