we should end beta and go live with red99; I think we've thoroughly tested it up to pre velious.

They've told us it isn't going to be wiped, and I don't think wiping is a good idea. We would probably lose a handful of players, and once the initial excitement calms down population would be about what it is now, and we'd probably be in the same place with one guild doing all the raid content. Then what, another wipe?
Artificially restarting the game over and over is no way for a legitimate project like this to thrive, imo. It'd be pretty cool if they decided to delete the blue server and start up a teams server, or something, though.

I kinda like how vztz would repeatedly wipe. Cleanse the server, a fresh start for everybody! Players can dream of glory and boxy PvP. But it would never happen here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] And the grind is a bitch.
I personally think FFA is best, because ppl can change sides to naturally balance out the guilds to promote optimal PvP, but it seems that has not been the case here... too many bluebs. Therefore, I support a wipe and teams implementation, with three teams. A lot of ppl currently playing blue want teams, and we all know the red players will play anyway regardless of whether it is FFA or not. Cross teaming will happen, (bleh) but maybe only 1 char per IP, or 1 char per verified phone number (!! Scary, definitely deters new players due to reluctance to give out phone # to random internet emu projects) then we could curb some of it. Then further down the line maybe open up a char slot (or second account) for alts, like they did on Sullon. | ||

I have too much respect for the players that have suffered through the server and put in hours and hours of play to really support a wipe. Too much /played would be deleted it just aint right.
We can hope for fixed server rules like 4 lvl +- PvP range..item loot possibly randomized so its a kinda gamble when you wear a fungi whether or not you lose it to PvP...but a fresh box is the least likely of all and I understand the reasons no matter how much I'd like to see it. Pop is going up. Red99 remains best eq experience available anywhere and it is free. Fix NPC aggro so noobs can run to guards when they come here..tinker with resists and change the PvP level range. Let's get this baby optimised.

Since we're all daydreaming, I'd kinda like to see the server slowly split into hardcoded teams. What do you think would happen if one day dark team (dark elves, ogre, trolls, iksar) characters logged in to find they were all removed from their guilds, could no longer group with or receive/give beneficial buffs from/to anyone but other darks, but could still attack each other? Kinda like the opposite of VZ crossteaming; hardcoded teams without the safety of their own team.
And the devs could get all RP about it. I bet population would go up. Then when the novelty started to wear off, they could do it again with the humans (who all decided to go to war against short team for their subtle "tiny doors/housing" trolling). And then after a while of having things like that, elf team would split off from the elf/short alliance because dwarves contribute so much to global warming, and the gnomes refuse to give up their practice of necromancy. And finally, after all of that, the teams become real teams that cannot attack their own.
