Shits classic.

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.

Group Bonus: 6 Man Group = The previous individual EXP bonus.

Staggered Week-long Variance = It rewards neckbeards but also creates more mobile people, scouting parties, and small scale PvP.

Remove the hybrid EXP penelty = It gets removed in Velious, but alot of people want to play SKs, Rangers, and Bards, rip that shit out.

Bring back Guises for a limited time only as a promotional event. You're welcome, Chewie.

Create a PvP token/symbol/reward system to supplement coin loot, which many find boring.

In game leaderboard.

+/- 4 PvP range

Have global OOC display your location.

Start banning people like Rellapse and Hateraid on the forums. Aside from obvious trolls, the community isn't all that much worse than blue's, just a few days ago people were prasing staff when we thought exp was turned back on. Morale was high and personalities were positive.

Go forth with teams server or a new ffa box and just merge Red into Blue. I only say this because a wipe is not possible.

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.

What you see in the forums is far removed from what's in-game. Plenty of helpful people in-game. Plenty of idiots too...but even most of them want to keep newbs. Most of them...there are a few cavemen who just like to anal probe. But hey...that's part of what you sign up for when you go red.

[Squire]

its true.

The problem is you all pride yourselves on being the dregs of the EQ Emu community. You make your little MS paint montages of peoples corpses, call people faggots and ******s incessantly, and then you wonder why no one wants to play with you. The problem with Red 99 are the Red 99 players, and thats not going to change.

Also, EQ pvp has always been a sub-group of the EQ population, that doesn't help you much either when there isn't as many people to draw from anymore.
