Beating a Dead Horse

[Izmael]

Wipes would drive away everyone but the most hardcore beards.

A casual fuck like myself already finds gearing up pretty hard. If there was a wipe I'd never ever connect to R99 again in my life.

So unless you wanna play on a 15 pop server with all the FQ bio waste weirdos, don't wish for a wipe.

if i dont recognize ur name ur opinion is worth less than dogshit

people playing here 3 months afraid of getting their one level 42 druid character wiped meanwhile others have access to 30+ raid geared level 60s

rogean u doin an social experiment on agatha or something?

wheres da wipe

[Aesop]

so what's going to change with a wipe? you gonna come out on top this time or something? because if you wipe it, just gonna be the same old shit different people in the end -- unless you guys want rolling wipes or some shit.

generally directed at the people who want a wipe.

remove YT, remove OOC.

if you do wipe then remove the exp bonus as well. red don't need no welfare exp. bonus

[Bazia]

shut up fgt u spent 1% of the time playing as me

and never even smelled the quality of pixels adorning my many characters

back to the fields u serf fuck

retards like the above afraid to lose their 1 level 37 rogue to a wipe are a fucking joke when people with stables of 60s are asking for a wipe

[Aesop]

I have stables of 60's scrub. Not fucking hard on this server.

Including probably the best geared ENC on the server (not you lol)

Nice ad hominem though plebeian.

[Aesop]

granted I didn't gear aforementioned ENC, but it's still better geared than yours. I'm not afraid to lose it, I just don't see what would change with a wipe.

The same people will neckbeard to the top, you'll play for a year or two then quit and be salty on the forums again. Have you considered moving on?

I can't speak for others, but I don't really care who's "on top." I imagine the same people who have the time and dedication to max out several endgame toons now would do so again if the server was wiped. No, this isn't about changing the result. It's about enjoying the journey there again.

Because, in the end, isn't that what p1999 is about?

And I agree with taking away experience bonus, YT, ooc, etc. That stuff doesn't really matter one way or the other to server health. The experience boost was added to get less patient people to come here, and OOC and YT just make the server seem busier than it actually is.

Global OOC discourages talking and grouping within the guild, since you can do so globally and need the guild less. YT gets people to run away from PvP, not wanting to be embarrassed in front of the server. Neither is good for community.

Fair enough. I do think it's about the journey which is why most everyone gears out then quits.

Don't try to reason with these diseased retards defending 40 person Velious server due to hoarder syndrome

Any EQ PvP server needs to be seasonal or cyclical in nature, this is painfully obvious by now.
