I don't think the MQ issue can really be used as an argument against itemloot, to be fair. That's reaching a bit. I have to trust that the devs can prevent MQ, and even if that's a little optimistic and a few might get away with cheating, it's not really something that should be counted as a factor when determining the server's ruleset.

You're doing it wrong. If you want to intentionally misquote someone to ridicule them because you have nothing more valuable to contribute with, you have to actually fabricate a quote that conveys the opposite of what they said. Failing to understand the what was said by person you misquote and thus producing a quote that has no context or relevance doesn't accomplish much.

p99 red without item loot is p99 blue played by a bunch of scared little kids that accidentally turned in their book of discord.

i never thought id see so many people crying for a hardcore p99 red server while simultaneously crying not to lose their banded armors. whys everyone so scared? its just pixels.

p99 red without item loot should be more appropriately called p99 pink. gaping wide pussy pink.

Item loot may be better, however that doesn't mean its better for server population.

people said and continue to say the exact same thing about changes made to 99. in fact as i recall, a large portion of the community said the same exact thing in reference to p99 rolling classic in many respects.

as it turns out (now that i believe it has made itself apparent), people like a challenging game with alot of risk. lack of risk makes the reward pointless.

Item loot is a much more significant change for blue players then the random changes p99 has. I agree with you about the challenge, but we are in the minority, if we want a decently populated server item loot cant be in.

I played VZTZ before and longer then about 99.9% of everyone who ever logged on that server. Now that I put that out there, I loved item loot and thought it was a super good time. It definitely had its pluses but it comes with its negatives as well. After playing both item loot and no item loot, I definitely will say that no item loot is the smarter decision for a realistic and successful server atmosphere.

I remember when item loot was in and I would slay someone, if they did anything or said something to piss me off I would blind them mid looting their corpse and slay them again so I could loot a 2nd item, or do things like delete my FBSS just to loot someone elses to piss them off.

It was a lot of fun but its just not realistic, saying that people are bluebie pussies just because they are making the logical decision to be against item loot is stupid. It's like saying sex is 10x better without a condom, well no shit but it just has its negative repercussions (granted she isnt taking birth control).

Item loot just creates a FPS EQ server with a super high turn over rate, and also attracts the worst of the worst when it comes to griefing. The comment about MQ auto bagging is VERY true as well, I didn't realize that was possible till way after item loot was over when someone told me. Anyways, who were you on VZTZ? Did you play after item loot? If so does that make you a pussy bluebie? just sayin' dawg
