Why not switch?

[fadetree]

Well, you can't argue with my experience, if I say I thought it sucked, then I did. I don't translate that to "and therefore it sucks for everyone". But I do think it's likely that most people won't like it....and they seem not to. So.

I tried red but it's ded

Warhammer online was good pvp. Hell, even WoW pvp was kinda fun.

EQ pvp is and has always been a mess and Red 99 is the worst incarnation of EQ pvp - both from a community attitude (caustic) standpoint and a gear imbalance standpoint. The insanely low population just magnifies these problems.

Red is dead. Ironically, it's the playerbase of the server that's to blame for the ghost town it currently is.

you failed to enjoy taking your p99 experience to the next level.

Remember, if the game is boring, frustrating, and unbalanced; it's not the game's fault. You just "failed" to enjoy the game properly.

You can have a red character on blue server but you can't have a blue character on red server. So yeah, why don't the people on red switch to blue?

If that's how you look at it why even bother playing. Sounds like you failed.

Most the player base on red already dominated blue at one point or another. Killing the same old npcs is boring. Killing people who talk shit to you not so much.

When will people figure out that these recruitment threads do not work?

I don't get personal validation from computer games so that's a perspective that I can't really relate to. However, if all of you switched to blue wouldn't the same people who "talk shit" to you on red now be pvp on blue? I've played this game for 5 years and I've never been subject to shit talking, I have witnessed it though on red server /ooc.

Everybody would like a legit pvp server except maybe the red server cheerleaders. And therein lies the rub. To make red into a server that resembles a live pvp server in 1999, some changes would need to be made, and the reds are dead set against those changes becuase it would mean the end of jackass junior high with the easy mode leveling. The reason nobody plays on red server is because nobody takes it seriously, it's our Tiajuana. Nobody wants to move to Tiajuana, sure they might go there once in awhile and bring home crabs and some souvenir dead frog figurines, but nobody wants to live there. In the eyes of almost every player red is not a legitimate server, it's just another one of those weird experimental servers that they see on the server select screen. it's a fuckoff server that nobody takes seriously and never will as long as it continues to exist in it's current state. And that's the real reason why red is empty, we all know it but some of us refuse to admit it. So year after year we do the dance and beat the dead horse.

Don´t waste your time on Red. It is a barren wasteland. Don´t come to general forum to beg for peeps to join Red. It is cringy.
Just let it go...
Have a nice day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
