The pampered experience group (deferential players and forward GMs)

Your arguments about jerks and people getting lost show your emotional attachment. I wouldn't let you on a jury, or be a judge. Maybe a traffic cop. Something simple.

LETS BE CONSTRUCTIVE GUYS, ALSO YOU'RE ALL FAGGOTS.

But seriously, without shrink in for a spell (heh), the talk about rooms being the "camp" is bunk. Go claim a room as a group of fatties in SolA, that shit is like the clown car olympics.

Another group shows up and they take the next kill while we were medding.

HEAD GM talks to certain people for 30 more minutes telling them they must come to some argreement
but
REFUSES to say what that agreement should be.

"I want to be able to steal a camp and that be okay" is what you are trying to say. No.

Where's the TL;DR on this?

[ELance]

It is sad how many disrespectful or off topic replies are in this thread. Even a GM answered my post with a picture, with no comment. Yes it does appear Project '99 uses the Play Nice Policy as its model, but it does not. Camps are enforced on Project '99, they were not in Everquest, from March 2000 (the month of the Play Nice Policy, about) and later. GMs do not make people share camps on Project '99, they define them. For instance the pond in Mistmoore is a camp. There is no sharing of that (How do I know? Don't ask. I do). But you know when I made this post, it didn't depend on any certain evidence to support it. The attitude of some people on this message board is hideous, they have no respect for their fellow man. How can you call yourself civilized when you answer five paragraphs with one sentence, or a picture, for heavens sakes? This person is a GM? It is hard to understand how some of these people think, or if they do.

I will resist all attempts to make me into a pedant by disrespectful people. If this means I need to killfile them then I will.

And where is that report button? The FAQ says there is a red report button on the message boards somewhere for objectionable content, but I don't see it. At least two pages of irrelevant posts can be cleared out of here.

Personally, the point has been lost since the first wall of text and overthought response. Reading your paragraphs are painful; the quality of your words and horrific punctuation are far overshadowing your point.

In short, why can't you just type P99 instead of "Project '99". You're literally taking the time to add the apostrophe every fuckin time.. get to the fucking point already cause i still don't know what everyone is bitching about today lol.

Is it that gm's are too involved? Would it really be a better expierence if they wern't involved? Wouldn't one out of two people still be on the losing end; and still find something to bitch about? Probably the reverse arguement like 'where is all the staff' haha.

Why can't people just enjoy playing the game the way its presented now; instead of trying to change it to their vision? If its not fun anymore, then don't play. /shrug

This discussion has been had before.

Different servers had different GMs. Some servers had a GM enforced rotation on raid mobs. Some servers did not.

Some servers apparently had GMs bad at their job. Some servers did not. Or maybe behind the scenes Verant/SOE purposely set it up this way so different servers would have different "personalities." Who knows.

Regardless, the PNP was a part of EQ and it's a part of P99.

Edit to add: If you want to see these servers turn into Red population numbers, get rid of CSR and camps, lol.
