Red

[innocent51]

Jesus. What happened to EQ players? Deal with what you're given or shut the fuck up and leave

I play EQ since day one and almost never really stoped. EQ players are and always were complaining and ranting on forums. Most people nowdays inded just shut the fuck up and leave because the MMO market todays allows to you so whatever you want when you want. But let me explain.

I was caught in the whole "lets try red" thing. It felt like both the devs and the red community were trying to make the server enjoyable for everyone. So I did try.
After a few hours I noticed that :
1) The twink/PL issue is really a plague and actually was 100% of the PvP encounters I had (personnal experience)
2) The whole supposely bannable but not hardcoded PNP rules hardly applies (or didnt to me)

You use a forum to share an experience, ask a question or give an information. It is what I did.
I end up with 2 pages filled with :
- You are a troll/liar
- You do not own testicles
- Just go away

(and a couple of actually interesting things from Farzo and Pudge)

So my conclusion is that the Red server community is indeed filled with griefer who doesnt give a crap about the server pop ever going over a couple of hundred.

You took the wrong actions after dying the first time. Did you call "LNS" in ooc? If not then no rules were broken. Perhaps we need a quick run down of the rules for new red players?

Death from players will happen on a pvp server, its not for everyone.

Of course it will. It is actually quite rare tho. The vast majority of people I came accross were just minding their own busines and friendly grouping around. The problem is that 100% of PvPers were griefers, lamers, trainers, abusing game mechanics to cause xp death... and twink or supported by 60 characters, or both.

But yeah, terrible luck maybe.

Just to add my 2cp, I think we were just unlucky, I have been playing red now for a month or so and i have various teen / low 20s chars and I have not suffered the way you did.
When I see folks in my range I prepare to fight, if they are friendly I won't start, that's just me, live and let live but I certainly stand my ground !
I actually understand the twink griefers and except that as part and parcel, I have been killed by some of the famous griefers and I will be actively seeking some of them out shortly just for the satisfaction of giving it a shot, MrBigs I am coming to Unrest for you soon !
I didn't get it at first and would get mad, then I saw the light, everyone needs a bad guy, Red server has it fair share but it's a game, play it like one is my advise.
If you are getting griefed again, /OOC it, you will find some kindly high levels may pop over and slay the offending OOR healer etc..

Seriously miffed Red is down, don't even want to play Blue... seems to be no point.

Any of you guys remember that time a guy made a public access account with a character camped at the hole ent with a key and some red dude deleted the key and the entire red community cheered him on and continually made fun of the many angry blues?

Y u so m.....

Oh. Yeah it was a shame when it happened but I would chalk it up to group v. group mentality and not some "everyone on red is retarded". This is the internet after all and I'm more than certain some blue asshole would have done the same if given the chance.

Besides, you can just have a necro cast ignite bones on you and go buy yourself a hole key anyways.

Come with an open mind and fantasize about killing those key-destroying assholes.

The point is that someone decided to go out of his way and do something positive for the community, and the first chance they get the red community griefs us. I'm not so ignorant as to say it was the entire community, but there was a lot of reds applauding this action like it wasn't immature and just a douche move. You are right in saying that eventually some blue ass hole would do the same thing, just surprised in that red got to it in like, what, two hours.
