I just feel like, if I did stick with Red, as an undergeared newbie enchanter I'd spend pretty much all of my time "accepting defeat" against folks that have been there for a decade and are probably leaking MR out of their pores. That wouldn't be fun in the least.

Nowadays I'd rather just be able to play the game. I'll take the competition and occasional verbal disputes over what I described any day. Also, have you tried a soy latte? They can be quite good. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Fair enough, I get it, everyone has a different mentality.
Haha yes I've tried soy latte, and taste wise it's fine but I avoid soy for other reasons than taste [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Oh and by the way (sorry to hog the thread)
Does anyone see the irony in the fact that you guys are already engaged in PvP? Just a way more toxic one with words and "lawyers". I would go out on a limb and guess that the toxicity and hatered going on on the blue/green servers can reach much deeper levels than on red server because so much more ego gets involved.

At least on the red server, you can accept defeat and move on to a different zone and leaving no residue in your mind.
Remove the GM lawyers and the ST problem goes away. I've said this for awhile. It also livens up the server because a core part of MMOs is the social aspect. Shitty guilds like ST get trained and griefed off the server without the GMs doing anything. In game is much more entertaining when there are "no rules."

We really need a no rules roleplay server with transferable no drops. Ultimate escape from ST and similar loot drama. Much better social atmosphere with extreme drama between players.

I swear half the people play on this server because this level of toxicity has been legislated out at the gameplay level from modern games, and theres nowhere else these people can still be the Y2K era shitlords that they are and have been for their developmentally stunted existence.

No other game allows for such DIRECT denial of other player's fun and advancement.

Ironically these people who love to cry about modern MMOs having instanced dungeons and raids are the very reason that change had to occur. Because without instanced content you WILL have groups of players on every server who's goal is not just advancing their own character, but equally the prevention of others from advancing as well.

Of course with P99 the problem of RMT ties directly into this - just look at the shitlords on Blue who permacmaped things for years so they could RMT the MQs (many of whom are now playing on Green, of course)

I totally agree. That kind of opinion gets you crucified on this server but I am a fan of instancing, and also things like LFR/LFD. Being able to play and have fun shouldn't depend on the good graces of others. Why is it fair for folks to be blocked out of content just because they don't happen to be in the right clique?

I'm not naive enough to think those features would come to P99, but I'm not going to say they weren't good things in other MMOs.

Towards the end of these great threads it always devolves into TLDR walls of text. Why is that?

A Wild West server where might-makes-right and mob rule is enforced by massive trains.

Or, people start behaving like the 40 year old adults that they are.

Tough choice for staff...
