So when did everyone make 100 alts to camp every raid target at once?

Lets do a server wipe so people learn not to take this all so seriously. Would probably benefit the health of a lot of these people to go outside.

What stopped me from being a dick in game on live? The fact that it took me so long to level my character and I couldn't just re-roll on a whim.

Definitely this ^^

The fact that it's free to play, that you can reroll with another free account and sell your old one with its terrible reputation (or buy another ready made account for similar plat) promotes bad behaviour.

Reputation really was a thing on live. With RnF and stuff here its almost encouraged to be a bad guy...be immortalised in a thread with your name on it. Infamy is much sought after it seems. I don't get it, too much of playing Fable.

Some of us choose to stand by our terrible reputations! =)

Another thing is that I relied on groups exclusively in order to advance my character (get XP) on live. I knew that if I wanted to not stay LFG for hours then I better be good at my class role in the group and have a decent rep. Not only is rep irrelevant here, but there are more Fungi Tunics than actual players on the server. Fungi Tunic was completely unheard of on live.. Whenever I saw someone wearing one it was jaw dropping.

Here 80% of people are wearing them and soloing to 60. And most don't know shit about how to play their class.

It was a while ago now but I do remember a well geared SK in his 50s asking what the command was to get up from FD... just sad [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Their are a lot of things about this server that gets on my nerves. I have no idea why they allow account selling which wasn't classic or allowed in 1999 but they ban dual boxing which was allowed and classic. Would be nice to be able to duo level some alt characters and avoid having to group with morons who bought their characters and have no idea what the heck they are doing. The high amount of soloers with epics and fungis makes finding or forming a group hard at times.

The raiding on this server makes me puke at how train infested, multi-account camped, emo drama fest it is. Most of the top guilds would be disbanded or banned from the server if they tried half the crap they do here on a live server.

I would be all for some sort of server revert to Kunark release or a new blue server without account selling and with 2 boxing. This would get rid of all the epic wielding fungi wearing twinks and even the playing field again. If you want to have multiple 60s to camp raid bosses then level them from 50-60 your self. Now without your fungis and epics you will have to group more often.

It doesn't help that the GM's have unbanned characters that have gotten banned if you tell them it happened "before you bought the account"

Too lazy to search for the threads

2-boxing lol. Pick any other server on the EQemu list that isn't P99 and enjoy your boxing there. Else there's a new server recently launched that caters for such things.

If there was a new server (no point, the existing population isn't high enough) then I'd want account sales banned, no boxing and no MQs. Fun would be allowed, in small measures.

[eqravenprince]

If classic EQ had instancing, that would have solved a lot of problems.

[Faerie Blossom]

Account selling is a serious problem that has affected both servers in negative ways, but even if it were not allowed it would still happen some and blue would still be in the terrible place it is. The real solution is, and always has been, pvp. If the majority of players on blue don't like their endgame, I really am confused as to why so few of them have come to red.
