Discussion on R99 vs VZTZ **POSTPONED**

[Dullah]

im so happy my pain amuses you

[heartbrand]

Meet at nfp bank later, pm me your best times. As far as the holo ban, pop was already going down the shitter at that point, we were seeing double digit daytime pop, and max of 200 prime time. While the holo ban was dumb and certainly hurt the server, most of the people that quit were never all that immersed to begin with, or are still playing here.

Edit: the better question is, what would have happened bad we killed naggy legit that time when sojourner manastoned to low health aggro and wiped us at 3%.

Yeah that 100% xp bonus with no one else on the box for months bump really hurt. Way to recover.

Think of all the pain caused by having to log in and do full VP clears because of 3 42 day server resets in 2 weeks.

Sad thing is, nihilum barely manages to get enough people together on sundays to do VP, let alone random times during the week. None of those resets allowed nihilum to do vp any more than the one time a week they normally did it.

Yeah free PD repops, man where can I send a donation or a card and balloons? Does Make-A-Wish know about your plight?

So the devs are taking comments because they think the R99 server population count is low and something can be done to increase that number. Great!

I liked these ideas, voice in the earlier half of the thread:

allow 2 boxing.
allow training (so that smaller forces can put a dent in the larger zergs operations).
consider a temporary new server that results in a merge with old server.
consider the idea of a fix or implementation that is not 'Classic'.
consider all means to just simply increase the population!

-training (this would decrease population, though it could very well increase competition like you said)
+fixing resists
++brainstorming a few not quite classic ideas (maybe, right click fixes, nerfs etc)

Im very sorry but these storms in chicago wiped out my internet. The eta for restore is a couple hours so it looks like i will have to postpone unless my shoddy comcast service gets its life together.

Im very very sorry for this. I left a fantasy draft early only to come home to a house without power or internet. Power is back on. But i guess comcast had a separate outage as well.

As i only have myphone i have no way to login to the game and let people know. Please /ooc my situation to let folks know if poss.
