Sad how empty Velious is - Page 2

As I remember it the LFG tool in practice was just a glorified GUI for /who. It had features like "my group wants a 45 52 rogue", but I don't remember anyone ever actually used any of them: they just did the same basic LFG checks done now but more conveniently.

Maybe others had a different experience?

used it on agnarr a lot. You can be anon or role and it sees you too. Justt throw up lfg and you can add a note too for saying something like seb keyed or that you have a high level druid roommate.

Right, I didn't mean it never got used, I just meant ... how many times when you were looking for a replacement did you actually use the fancy tool user interface to specify "my group is looking for a rogue with these specific levels", and then waited for the right one to turn up, vs. how often did you just use it to see what LFG rogues were out there so you could send them a tell?

Maybe you did use the features, and if so I'm curious to hear that, but just my experience was very few people used the tool "properly", and most just used it as a glorified /who lfg all.

Crystal Caverns is pretty awesome.

I also quadded for way longer than I should have at the giant fort in Eastern Wastes because I liked the isolation. Time to dwell over my elf thoughts and all that.

It's sad to see how empty Velious XP content is. So many camps; Giant forts, orc fort and so on all deserted.

When I was quadding the giant fort I saw other people there all the time, so I wouldn't exactly call it deserted. The orc fort on the other hand ... I don't blame anyone for not using it.

global /ooc would be a disaster here too much toxic to go around.

You'd learn the blue server isn't so different from the red server. Someone might commit elf suicide at T1 upon this realization/enlightenment.
