Default Dead

Red died cause the so called hardcore pvpers(most of the vz/tz) wanted a cake walk server. After crying to release it and patch as they go was agreed upon by rogean, it was released. After many of the vztz crowd got beat to 50 and then owned by the people they were gona play " basketball" with, they made up every excuse in the book. No yellow text, resists are fucked and blah blah blah. Alot of these vztz people never played in without mq, showeq and everything else under the book they found out their crutch was missing. So they little by little made posts everyday saying it was dead til most people left. If you arent gona cheat who cares about a 2 month grind? This is a mmo not fuckin quake. Once kunark comes out the same people will be back, cry that they are outgeared or some other sorry excuse and quit again. People dont remember though that vztz was bugged as fuck, pvp was unbalanced as fuck.

yep 100 percent the truth, and now where are all of them? I hear doing dragons at 4am in the monrning on their new "pvp" server. I guess they missed playing without their hacks.

Why Most VZ/TZ'ers won't survive Red99

Would do again.
Mellowyellow's claims that he was there to grief Holocaust off the server is beyond laughably absurd, for what should be obvious reasons to anyone who follows the ongoings of this lovely community.

I thought about ignoring his clear insanity (because let's face it, anyone that immersed needs a 5150), but the oprahyoumad.gif that he spams in every post just makes him easier to skip past.

Did someone say Lovely?

Why yes, the griefing started early.. so early:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...18&postcount=1

And then continued non-stop until months later and contstant failures (did not kill a single raid target? lol) the great route of the evil holo came about.

And then the server was cleansed and..... won:

50 population was because of /who all nihilum > "your request was cut short" due to a PoF raid.

Tr0llb0rn, you cannot claim that the server pop is X because of a batphone raid. The server spikes and falls between 0-50. Probably 20 or so on average. This and that stupid Oprah gif, you wonder why so many have you on ignore?

Although, the population has been climbing slightly I believe, and I have 4 days /played on a level 45 character (love being a casual), so I am glad to see flux into the server, however I would love a wipe with a non-broken server start. However, I know it would probably be the death blow to the server. Should have happened the moment Rogean got a whiff that it was released to early.

Fixing 1) guard assist, 2) resists, and 3) no wands/sword of runes/pathing exploits would have guaranteed this server to have >300 people a night.

Blue epics and VP pale in comparison to the server loss caused by the big three. All of the whiners about exp are lame as well.

I still think the best solution would be to open Red99 2.0, start over, legacy time period, and promise server merge after 4-5 months. That way Nihilum can continue farming and stockpiling a gear advantage while others can try to catch up from a non-broken server launch. Yet to hear a better idea to save the server. (/whisper YES IT NEEDS SAVING, biatch sprung an uber leak on day one) Kunark will not save server, it will help for a month or so I think! Will be a fun month, and I am looking forward to it!
