Being that most of you know the mechanics, complex formulas, spawn times, loot tables, ect ect, it's the equivalent of wining, dining and using all your smooth player moves on a girl youve been banging everyday for 12 years.

News flash, the grind is old and boring and NOT fucking fun anymore.

this guy is a prophet

Harrison's reason for keeping xp the way it is: butt hurt about not making it past lvl 10, couldn't handle the PvP even in Gfay. Wants to kill server. No, really he does.

Most lvl 50's reason: sense of elitism, "I can do it why can't you", don't want other people to catch up

My reason as a 50: I'd like to think I have a general sense from reading the boards and talking to a lot of people that I know what the fuck is going on.

The reason of many who have quit: Same reason as one just listed and that is... soloing SLOWLY to 50 isn't what people came to a PvP server to do.

It was fine when everyone was starting, there were other players around. I enjoyed the low level PvP. I even told other people at the time to stfu about the xp. But now, it is a ghost town. Bump the xp up at least for the first 24 levels for Christ's sake. What we need is other GROUPS to start characters here and right now they just roll their eyes thinking about it. More guilds like Velocity need to pop up to plug the holes on the sinking ship.

Lastly, if you want to play "a melee" make a necro, enchanter or mage. Stop crying about starting a rogue and then "realizing" you can't solo. No shit.

^ Here's where you lose credibility unfortunately. Stupid trolling like that. Come off it now son.

If you really want to kill the server, find ways to convince the staff everything is fine (AHEM HARRISON).

I see a lot of whiny cheaters who cant handle EQ whining for more xp.

My group quit because of the experience rate. I tried to forge ahead on my own but then I quit for the same reason I quit live EQ when I played on Tallon Zek. There was never anyone around. If this server is going to have a smaller population I think it needs to be condensed, having just classic zones is a start but spreading 100-150ish players over 64 original zones (including cities) doesn't appeal to me. One way to do this is to boost the experience rate so that everyone will be after the same tier of content reducing the potential for someone to run off to B.F.E..

Emerging pattern suggest that a lack of PvP experience and or relevance directly converses the demand to increase p99 exp rate.

server doesnt need a wipe, though there is a lack of melee/tanks, thats what joining a guild will help with or a group of peeps you usally xp with, servers going to be fine, the only problem is the people saying there is a problem
