I would love to see a red99, making big assumptions but id bet a lot of the people that leave 99 for it are the trainers, troublemakers, ksers, and douchers. A lot of these hardcore pvpers seem like lowbrow clubswingers that can't come up with a solution to a problem other than destroy it.

someone would say thats a win win situation for both servers

more farming on blue, more drama on red FTFW!

I fully support a Red99 server. I would *love* to see one.
As a 'care-bear b00bie' (or whatever the VZ/TZ misanthropes call us) I would like to see one for no other reason that to mitigate the amount of PvP related threads shitting up server chat.

Lots of interest in red, the fact that Rogean would provide a legit server that won't have the fear of being wiped will bring a lot of people regardless of ruleset.

Look at the end game on this server. End game content is won by... whoever has no life whatsoever and can run to their character select screen in seconds to SLAY THE DRAGON!!! If some of you don't realize what it's like in the top guilds, let me tell you a couple things. This isn't like live where guilds are stable. The turnover rate is fast and thorough. In a three-month period, these guilds have turnover in excess of 75% of the members and it DOES NOT MATTER. Plug any group of shaved apes into the guild, grind out some planar armor for them and back to the poopsock until the new crop is burned out and quits.

On a PVP server, the skill of every single player matters. Everyone knows who's prepared, responsive and creative. Sullon Zek was the most intense gaming experience of my life. There were literally times I stood up from my keyboard and screamed in utter rage and frustration. That was in large part because I was too stubborn to reroll off the good team.

P99 is sort of fun, but it's also pretty dull. Honestly, how can you NOT succeed against this content? Even if you don't know it inside-out, hello, go read a spoiler? On the other hand, let's see you trivialize Nagafen with your zerg force while committed forces from both of the other teams are bringing you every mob in the zone, burning down your tanks and clerics and breaking all your CC. Your first PVP battle will leave you confused and angry. Later that night you'll think, "Hey, I should have tried this..." After your first kills, you'll find yourself thinking about who you're going to nail next.

How many of you would like to kill me? I know it's more than a few. And you better believe I'd like to personally slaughter each and every one of you. I can't wait to play on the P99 red server. Go-Go Good Team!

I'll never see nagafen because I won't sit in a zone and wait for a batphone text, completely refuse to play that joke of a design.

Macht, you realize that SZ was the rejects from the other zeks. Jinsuko or whatever his name was, went to SZ, started if not ran one of the larger guilds for the first 6 months (dunno what happened then, I quit around that time), and was well received there.

On Tallon, we all knew he sucked. By the time SZ came out, most of the better players were already done with EQ.

[Envious]

And I'm sick of you SZ failures, touting the "OMGZ WE COULD TRAIN AND RUSH!!! SO MUCH HARDER COREZ!" crap.

There were no CS rules on TZ. (CS being customer service, or PnP). Again, that server was just the rejects that were not good enough to stick around on the other zeks. I'm sure there were some quality players, but like I said, at that time the zeks were hemorrhaging players to RL, and nobody I knew that went to SZ was anything special.

Hell, even on these EMUs... guys that were shit quality then, are now hailed as some sort of dominate player. Its kinda funny, but kinda sad too.

[Envious]

And Hobbes would love a red server, altho he would have to carry Calvin.

Just saying.

Never heard of him

Your perception seems off to me Envious. I'd imagine most of the people who didn't transfer from TZ would be people who invested too much time to bother, rather than rejects that couldnt hack the server haha. Only thing that was kinda shitty about TZ that could grief you was early Pandemonium cross team healing but eventually every guild turned that way.

I've jousted Tzuten kendrick and other rogues, on my rogue and never really noticed much of a front backstab advantage from them. The "skill" of EMU players you say sucked on live are because two things - a lot of people were young as fuck, I was 16 when EQ came out and I also couldn't dedicate the time to a top tier guild. I remember Telen being some unemployed fucken rich bastard who grinded aa's like 15 hoursa day in Velks with a bot ench/cleric for buffs. The "top" players on live played 10 hours a day and had a sick gear advantage ever since CN - PDM, if you think it was their sick jousting skills that are so much better than Xant or other emu players you said are sub par then I think you're way off.
