Discussion: Loot and Scoot (LnS)

[Arillious]

Can't believe everyone is actually in agreement on this. Let the players handle LnS. This has ALWAYS worked itself out both on eqlive and the previous eqemu servers.

This kind goes along with the idea of zone control in group or mass pvp.

If 2 guilds are fighting for a zone then naked player's from either guild entering the zone should be killed immediatly. They should not be able to enter until one of the guilds throws the towel in and requests LnS. Having naked players re-enter a contested zone causes to much confusion. At that point, the guild that gave up should not be able to enter the zone again for AT LEAST an hour. The players can work out the time though.

I also like the idea of players being able to type /LNS to put an LNS tag next to their name similar to /afk. On live, we would use the /afk tag to signify that the player was going to loot and then leave.

serverwide ooc is literally the best

Gobal OOC might work depending on the server population. Don't forget red99 is going to be hosted by competent people, so I'm sure if idiots are trolling or spamming it they're going to have their privileges to use it taken away. The flaming and shit of old boxes won't be as widespread on this one and even when it does happen it won't be happening for long.

Global OOC is classic~

Use the forums for your mindless dribble of shit.

Zeebbo, LnS being staff enforced will not work.

Will increase workload on staff, create frivolous petitions, and make ppl cry about when it is AND is not enforced.

On red99, I'm going to drop my wiener on your forehead Keegan.

I expect the server will start with player enforced LnS, which will soon be changed once enough people get sick of being powerless to stop griefers from CCing them all day as things such as player reputation are meaningless when there is a high enough portion of the server that doesn't care or even values traits such as those.

You're getting into psychology now and talking about the prison scenario.

If a rule benefits the whole, there will always be the few that will break that rule to benefit themselves, and in doing so removes the rule for the whole eventually.
