For me the Holiday bonus events ruin the holidays.

Damn high levels killing my mobs for loot when I actually need the xp.

my fav is when its people wearing 300k worth of gear on their twink acting like they need grobb or felwith guards more than me, meanwhile i'm wearing cloth armor in certain slots, and can't afford my spells

like these people actually show up and act like im really inconveniencing because they need my camp so bad

im not asking for special treatment, nor do i want it, but when these people act like they need the crap more than me it's just like uh??

gtfo here man

im not sure how to quantify velious raid loot in terms of plat since rarely the good stuff is sold, but my alts likely were all 1 million+ plat worth for level 46

i mean without inspecting them i can tell they got an epic mq at level 46 and are wearing a fungus tunic, jbb, have fungus staff etc.

maybe they still need money for torpor, idek. i understand we all need plat, but the way they come at me talking about how they need the camp because $ and its like yeah, im literally going to be level 60 without half of my 50+ spells and im still wearing cloth armor, but thanks for telling me how rough yall life is [You must be logged in to view images.

it just feels hella tone-deaf, imagine if a rich person went up to a homeless person complaining about not having enough $

Maybe they got their gear funded by a loan or on rental and they got repayments/rent to make sharp before the no drops get deleted?

valid point

I can't wait for this to be over so I can play again, lol. I've spent 3 hours from 3 AM to 6 AM on Thanksgiving running from continent to continent trying to find a camp that isn't taken. On the Blue server. Normally you never even see anyone in any of these zones. [You must be logged in to view images.

To be fair, you might have more plat if you hadn't deleted your characters and posted a video of you doing so. All because you went on some staff/server bashing rant and said you were leaving P99 for good.

Yet here you are, back again...pretty sad when people throw fits like that and publicly tell everyone they are leaving (as if anyone cares) and then come crawling back to P99 lol. It's not the guard farmer's fault that you deleted everything from your last run on P99.

again, zero clue what you are talking about. ive never deleted any characters, i dont even play alts, im pretty much a one trick pony.

again im also not complaining about plat. i play eq because i thoroughly enjoy the grind. there's just something annoying about the level 46 in full skyshrine armor (minus the fungus tunic), who somehow already has their epic, and BIS everything hounding me about giving them my camp because they need $$

its like when the walmart kiosk asks me to donate to the poor

like fam how about i donate to your employees

i experienced lots of garbage from garbage people on Sunday.

heres some effects from such a crazy bonus like this:

- Newer players get to experience bonus XP, loot and fun. Brought a 6 person group to a classic old-world camp and got 3 people upgrades in about 2 hours time. Because of the vendor trash dropped, they were also able to make some plat as a result.
- Newer players get to push through the hell levels: had two members of the team go from 50% of 45 to 46 in < 2 hours.

Also though:
- Camp fiends, pixel-sick sweatlords and people levelling their 13th alt poopsock exp and group content camps. Self-explanatory
- Newer players get to experience the pixel-sickness
- Newer players get to experience dick behavior from the pixel-sick slags who have been around servers for 5, 10, 15+ years. Got trained twice by the same level 60 player with my level 45 group of casuals, because the level 60 was trying to leapfrog us to our end destination.
- Newer players get a taste of the bonus, while sweatlords and scumbags dominate the high-value camps.

I don't raid anymore, so I didn't experience any of that - but I bet it was glorious.

Everyone knows XP weekends / holiday weeks is the time to get out your level 46 full ToV geared alts and flex on noobs.
