hehehe, the prison isn't the red server guys... don't know how much longer it'll be before you figure that out.

I had a fun time on red once I got out of smallme's pvp range

Glad there is still a server where classic eq guilds have to compete with eachother for the best loot in the game. Thanks Sirken for making things clear. If you want easy uncontested instanced loot, go play somewhere else!

None of this is anything like classic.

Classic EQ wasn't a stakeout followed by a foot race....ever. It was never anything nearly that retarded, or it wouldn't have been popular as long as it was.

Waiting in camp for a single pull is about the closest thing to "free loot" that has ever existed in gaming. This is what the mostly takes place in the top guilds.

I never said the raiding rules here are exactly like classic. Can you even read? The point is that the best pixels should be mostly acquired by the guilds willing to put in the work. The definition of the 'work' has evolved and changed as the raiding rules have evolved and changed. Not every member of these guilds puts in the same amount of 'work' and that is ok... that's what DKP is for. Guilds need FTE'ers, a competent pull team, fresh warm bodies ready to respond to a batphone at various times of the day and then good communication/organization to not fuck up the one attempt. Everybody does their part. Very glad that Sirken confirmed that this server will remain what it has always been. Those who want instanced, easy loot are encouraged to go elsewhere, thanks Sirken!

It's EXTREMELY easy to get top tier loot on P99 -- you simply join A or A and if a couple months time you're getting end game drops.

Literally any level 60 player on the server could warm body for A/A and get geared out. It's the definition of easy, trivial item acquisition.

Ahh yes, the 'ol 'ANYBODY COULD JOIN THE BEST TEAM AND WIN TOO' argument. What is your point? Yes, if you join one of the top guilds on the server and put in a ton of time and work, you will get rewarded for your time and work. Isn't that the point?

Trivial? Do you know how many raids one must attend to get one piece of BiS loot on average? It's certainly not a trivial amount of time.

Or they can just stay here...On this server with an not-classic raid scene that facilitates "warm bodies" getting easy loot.

This is SO true. If you a casual and want to get loot, you can do that very well here on p99. Just join A/A/R/AG/E/O and you can see all sorts of neat stuff and get loots. No need to sit around being angry that some players have more free time or are better organized or interested in doing things you aren't. Just Jon up and have fun. All those guilds are super easy to join :3
