Keep classic xp, remove global ooc, add full group xp bonus like squire said.

I'd vote for this. Usually the simplest plan works best

[Squire]

Make Faerie (or someone else, following a through vetting process) whatever the EQ equivalent of a "Seer" was in Ultima Online.

Seers were staff who had like no fucking power, but could create and run small RP events, quests etc. Aim this specifically at the low level population.

Faerie would probably squirt (regardless of gender or genitalia) at the prospect of this, has terrible mechanics ideas, but would likely run a great small event in Runnyeye for lowbie halflings or something.

One small thing that would surely help is classic-style nerfing of terrible character names like Fecal Matter and Bowjobs. GMs really need to get on that imo.

Best solution is honestly to just merge blue into red, with 4+/- range and pnp heavily enforced.

This would not work. Blue players did not sign up for PvP. They would be very vocal about this.

Gonna have a bad time.

When I logged on for the first time, on launch day, in March of 1999, the first player in Everquest I ever saw was a dwarf named Dildobaggins.

Shits classic.

no it would be great... because people would be geared to put up defense, and not have to get slaughtered to oblivion by geared twinks.

the game would be spectacular with large scale pvp... and conversely is shit with small scale cheating scumbags shitting where they live

[Tradesonred]

At this point, why not put Faerie in charge and watch the fireworks for lulz. Better to watch it burn down in a blaze of glory than have this chinese torture crap.

Blue merged with red

Enforced raid rotation (on a pvp server)

Big xp loss for a pvp death (because theres already too much pvp)

GM events that punish PVP

Enforced roleplay

What else did she propose

[phacemeltar]

the only thing that keeps me from joining red is that most of the players seem very unfriendly(on forums). ofc thats the same case as on blue, but at least on blue there is a larger pool of people to choose from.

Give it a few weeks and you'll be bitter as fuck just like the rest of us.

How many times and in how many ways are we just going to keep repeating the same damn things over and over again?

A reasonable person would understand that - at this point - it doesn't matter. Play or don't play. But even I am getting sick of seeing the same damned people spout the same damned crap not only every day...but in a hundred ways every damned day.
