Removing Blue-Red trading killed this server

Priorities.

Rettiwalk has a point. They went the duck tape route to avoid having to deal with rmt. In the end it hurt Red99. A server is only as good as it's staff. To many questionable decisions have been made.

it was done to discourage people from investing hard on red, which would result in a lot of tears when the wipe is announced

wildly guessing there will be a 1 time transfer from red to blue allowed upon wipe, since prices on items are higher on red anyway, red doesn't have much of a pop left and even less of an economy ..

discord should have launched, thinking the GG thing got stuff pushed back, but in the end banning red <-> blue trades seems like a first step for a final solution

anyway, i hope this is all tinfoil, but given the state of the server, support, and rules changes, i sure as fuck can't find the motivation anymore

i would rather play on a 600 pop box with some RMT, then on a 120 player box with slightly less RMT

prolly just me

also lol at "ducktape", nearly looks like freudian slip there [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's a very common brand of duct tape in america.

thx for the info tho, r99 has educational value! (inb4 "if you retarded / euro")

Can definitely agree that it's probably hurting red, because wasn't it allowed for quite a long time and then all of a sudden it stopped after tmo? Not saying tmo is to blame but I guess maybe too many red flags at once?

when people get griefed out through FQ, noone wins

at least do it ingame if you have to

Cross server trading was retarded. Good riddance.

I think removing cross-server xfers is on the same line as removing buff timers
