It is a shame players try to ruin the game for others but there are toxic players in all communities. Unfortunately the toxic ones are also the ones with the loudest voices on forums.

Red99 is fun and refreshing if you get fed up with crowded spawns. There are a lot of good people on the server and the scum you see posting on the threads are easily dealt with.

A lot of good people on red. Would definitely recommend trying it at least.

Had red dawn members give me some starting cash/advice.
Nihilum members game me some cash/advice.

Sure there's some friction there - pvp is the cause of and solution to that (like alcohol) but if you keep out of ooc (barring trades and general adverts for groups) you should probably be okay.

Note: this is all pre-40. Heard it can get kinda kooky at 40+ and definitely 52+.

Despite the massive amounts of trolling, including the post above me, no fewer than a dozen people have followed up with me due to this post. They have been given gear including mithril arms / greaves / bone razor's / bonecaster robe's / full jewelry such as 55hp rings, and powerlevel, many of them are already level 20+. Ignore the trolling and unhelpful posts and come and try it out! A lot of these people are having a BLAST! Constant guild chat, teamspeak, and groups.

No there is not.

Listen, red is not going to be for everyone, some people just don't fundamentally enjoy the notion of being able to be attacked by other players in this game, especially since yes EQ isn't a "balanced" PVP game by any stretch of the imagination.

This thread was created more so for the many players on blue who have avoided red due to it's "toxic" appearance due to a few "Special" posters on our forums, most of whom don't even play! Many of the people coming over due to this thread really are having a blast.

On Blue, the raid situation can be very bleak and unexciting, especially in Velious. On Red, there's really only two raiding guilds. There's no "waiting in line" for mobs, or waiting for your once every 7 week chance as a class whatever guild to kill Venril Sathir. For many, that's a huge change of pace and exciting! For others, they would prefer the more "relaxed" log in log out method. Neither is "better" I'm just trying to educate people about what red is.

If you're interested in some p99 pve firsts in Velious, want to play with a mature raiding crew that is very friendly, enjoy the Bid DKP System [Daladen as a former Machin Shin member I know you do!], are willing to try something "new" then this is your chance!

Thanks guys, please FEEL FREE to contact me with ANY questions whatsoever, I will be happy to help.

I just started on Red99 yesterday and Joined Red Dawn.

I'm a blue through and through but I'm enjoying the new experience so far.

Once they make an item loot server (not bitch item loot, where you can't loot bags so people just bag their gear), and teams. Then it would prosper.

But coin loot, meh.

BTW Daladen (who was a rogue in Machin Shin), isn't me. I just happen to be Daldaen (a Druid who was in Machin Shin). Raiding together with him was a treat for the raid leader I'd imagine.

You still haven't said who you were on PC. I'm guessing Shiftee though...
