Stop the Socking

You want to pvp, that's fine, but swooping in with ridiculously geared twinks and shooting fish in a barrel is shit I used to do back on SZ which was a goddamn penal colony. You want red to work? Stop eating your own and try to not say faggot repeatedly in global ooc.

Yeah, that happens in 3 zones on the server. MM, Unrest, CoM. That's where twinks lay in wait. It's difficult to stop them from doing that. They think of it like a rite of passage or something. Chardok, for instance, is empty a good majority of the day though. So is BW. Even Seb is sometimes.

Just need some tenacity, figure out where people are and aren't.

I don't really want to sidetrack into a red discussion any further but with such a low population you gotta play where the groups are unless you're gonna solo to 60 which is only an option with a few classes. So either you have a set crew that can group in hidden places away from pvp or you're a loner you end up having to PUG it up in the few populated areas like CoM which is terrorized by ultra geared twinks.

You can't say "don't be a pussy play red" and then tell people to shrug off the multiple non-redeeming characteristics of the server.

"...a goddam penal colony..."

But is it like the Tantalus colony, or Rura Penthe?

We used to play a game back on SZ called grief greeny. The game was made to entice the higher level members of the team to come defend the lowbies. So there's no level range, and our group of 60s would roll into something like crushbone and just murder everyone in site. Then we'd find everyone huddled together at the POD lift and we'd AE and kill like 20 people at once. We'd do this until players our level showed up so we could coin them.

Took no skill, was obviously horrible and awful, but it's almost akin to having ultra twink ravage two full groups for the lulz. Not good PR for the server yo.

Got prof? We know you train your own raids and lie about it Chest

Take a minute and think about 3k pop blue Velious launch and if that's what you want, go ahead [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Seeing the word faggot doesn't keep Chest out of RNF either, or most of you

K let's stop derailing my thread about red.

Let's get an agreement and have GMs weigh in on how we can get them to reduce variance to make these changes worthwhile.

[Nirgon]

Shorter variance means more players mashing hotkey at spawn that's about it

[Nirgon]

What char is your gf? I'll look it up on the leader board

Is it Hyperdyke? Same guy complaining about the word faggot?
