What a day

what was the issue with splitting trips? you just tag one out and then have someone pick it up clean once it's far enough away / out of LoS of the other two.

Sincerely feel bad for anyone raiding on P99, there's no excuse really.

The only thing cringier than being a P99 raider is being someone who doesn't raid anymore, but still can't stop talking about P99 raiding.

No lifers is fine.

No rules is fine. Let people camp wherever. Zero rules.

There is no downside to this. Kittens can go sit 10 people on vulaks spawn and keep it clear for 3 months straight, who cares.

All the raid rules are terrible, always have been. I've been part of them since 2010.

I'm in agreement but that isn't how the staff feel. I have played on a lot of emulated servers across a dozen games and one thing that is mostly constant is the staff interfering with a heavy hand in game disputes. Classic EQ if you petitioned someone kill stole you or took your camp or whatever pretty much nothing was going to happen. You weren't going to get an answer.

On P99 though bans are handed out like candy for this kind of stuff. It's probably related to the small player base emulated servers have. On Live you had one server GM for 3-5,000 players across an even larger player base that wasn't logged on. On P99 for example there are multiple server GMs, devs, guides, etc for 2 servers now with <1k players and most of those people are playing both servers and they are very active players where they basically make up the playerbase there is a much less significant long tail of offline players.

I've been a game server admin before and resisting the temptation to fuck with your player base is hard. Both good or bad fucking with them it's just hard to keep your hands off because you think you can make things better by interfering. Takes awhile to learn that sometimes it's better to keep your hands off. P99 has catered to an audience now that expects rule lawyering and hand holding from GMs so if they ever went back it would probably dramatically impact the population as all the people who don't like that environment don't play here anymore.

Good points, especially as it applies to staff intervention that impacted the long term health of Red, and how they should consider such intervention in the future on Purple.

we should have a server that is a real elf court room and players can get jury duty if they dont show up to the ban hearings they get suspy for 10 days misdemeaner and the prosecution has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt links provided in discord for actual evidence and up to the gms if they want to do any investigation server side

i would pay to watch this on cable on P99NN
