Who else wants a new PvP server?

2 box pvp is the only way to keep a healthy pvp pop. Red99 is living proof.

I'm not sure. I hate to sound arrogant. But sometimes I get concerned that because I like to keep to myself it may have dragged the server down. I remembered I gave some noobs 250pp and I was really chatting it up with one and I didn't respond back to the other, due to doing other things. I get concerned sometimes that might hurt peoples feelings and they leave.

Server was doing fine, then I had to keep to myself and it got destroyed. I know sounds arrogant.

I know how that feels. It's not our job to keep the server thriving. Wish I could do more. But then I would burn out and try to compensate by biting into irl.

Trust me when people quit It's almost certainly not your fault. And it's just a game. People need to feel free to walk away.

Any server that allowed RMT would be shut down so fast your head would spin. That has lawsuit written all over it.....

Well we know that is just not even a slight possibility here.

Ya if I had a little kid I wouldn't let them play red.

I'm used to it, and it doesn't really bother me, but sometimes I think I need to get away from the /ooc for personal mental health reasons. It's just crazytalk most of the time, and I do enough of that myself.

My goal is to foster a more supportive and friendly environment, not one were ppl can work stuff out, but one were respect, boundaries, and courtesy is applauded.

I would go to blue over the /ooc but there will always be someone somewhere who says mean stuff in /guild chat or w/e so whatever, red is the better server, /ooc isn't enough to chase me off. It is something that should be made classic though. In the spirit of the server and the project.

What do you do about ooc just filter it into a minimized window?

[Gustoo]

I don't ignore it I engage with it. I think I kept it in its own window. It really doesn't bother me that much but it gives a free stage to people who shouldn't have a stage and so should not exist. To anyone who really loves being able to global OOC blast dumb stuff at people I am sorry it has to go but it isn't part of actual everquest just late game junk EMU boxes. Come to the forum and say stuff and get banned if you're unhinged.

I believe OOC was a window / tell / say / group / guild was a window.

And everything else in the main window where attack messages and stuff show up. I think I need to filter the attacks better so I can see more details of what is happening to me but I can't remember honestly its been a really long time.

OMg i hope u put me in my place a few times, I needed it. <3

[Gustoo]

I didn't go into OOC and fight people but I didn't just turn it off either. At the very least I would always keep it open because it was a channel people used to ask for rez help and stuff and also to auction things. If it is enabled you basically have to use it IMO unless you don't mind missing out. I'm sure I never put you or anyone else in their place since when we're playing EQ we're all in the same place and to think otherwise is ridiculous. Norrath. We're in Norrath. Questing.

When it is disabled all those conversations go to the forums for auctions and help requests and so on and it is a more classic experience.

I dunno Tuna its not like the other pvp servers are doing any better.

Where we do see results is P99blue and green that are hands down highest pop emulated servers, neither allowing boxing.

Box quest is just a different game and I don't see it being needed here. Why do you want to box? For better solo quest? It doesn't really encourage a healthy pop except in doubling the number of characters logged in, even if there is only 1 player for ever 2 toons.

[magnetaress]

People want to solo war 1-60 with their druid box /afk like they can with mage,necro,wiz,ench


its not really healthy because unless you box it screws clerics, wars (some), etc

its not that hard to solo a war/rogue but ppl got it deeeep in their smooth brains they cant and won't play two chars to camp items for one, most likely only ending up sucked into playing two chars and camping items for two

but on this server (pvp), everyone should have alts like i said - so as the situation demands it they can swap around.
