It's lame and it leads to unfair situations. It's almost like cheating, like the sticky says.

If there was a substantial xp increase there wouldn't be a need for boxing anyway. I don't mean LoZ xp mind you, that's stupid fast. I mean getting rid of the hybrid xp penalty at the least, that way the xp bonus really feels like a bonus.

Who is a worse owner? Rogean or James dolan?
Doesnt Rogean run eqemulator.org? He must have difficulty finding time for the server

i feel ya hippo but some of the things on the list have been implimented.

1. xp has been increased a lot. you definately notice a big difference at lvls 1-35 which is the most important levels to help since after 35 you can group with any higher level.

2. global ooc is in

3. i like the idea of hotzones but then again a dont. people are going to level where they want regardless of where the xp is. I plan on leveling Unrest > MM > solb/lower guk even if the hot zones are najena>sola>splitpaw. its a good idea but i dont think itll funnel people in the right places if the hotzones are some wierd place noone wants to go.

4. boxing is lame. dont think it should ever be implimented. thats my opinion and im sticking to it!

5. i agree, yellow text would be fun. not sure on stats because people can just cheat the system with an alt.

6. maybe its because ive never been dumb enough to be bind camped but the xp loss is pretty minimal. unless you are suiciding yourself over and over i am not sure how this is a problem. if you felt like a dick for killing them you probably were being a dick lol. i dont pvp everyone i see just because i can thats just dumb.

No one is having fun on red but nihilum......you guys did more damage to the server than anyone/anything.You guys invite everyone and even recruitted once your numbers were so high.No one cares about pixels but you guys thats why you mass invited so you could pve.You have no interest in pvp and you have your private blue server.Why shit on every post suggesting anything to change the server? The fact that you guys are still taking apps is lol.CT down! This is what you brag about? I love the posts saying what a hackfest LoZ is.....LoZ is a pvp server this is not.Theres more yellow text yesterday than the last few months on red.Do yourselves a favor and listen to what newcomers want.....Kunark will bring back 20 people for one week and a buncha dudes who cant contest you anyway are asking for exp boosts and y'all cry? If anything people will level and you will have more members to invite.You can take this stuff as an insult but imo you guys inviting so many people discouraged more people from playing than any doomsday post.

I'd say I saw a pretty good "hackfest" put on here as well.

I never thought going into this there'd be bugs I hadn't heard of before. Boy was I wrong lol.

Make it item loot and do some minor resist tweaks and I'll stfu.

...
At least when there's hacking on red99, it gets detected and the person doing it gets banned. Also I'd like you to name all the significant bugs on red99 that don't exist on LoZ, then write the same list for bugs on LoZ that don't exist on red. I wonder which list will be 100 times longer than the other?

Yeah I agree with Samwise too and of all the points I also agree that Yellow Text might be fun after all. So i'd support that compromise point. (of course after it goes in, nothing will change just like when global /ooc went in and the xp bonus went in, the Viles of the world will find some new reason to not play classic red EQ).

Seems like people just need to be reminded of how awesome classic EQ is.
Maybe the cure is to go play WoW till you /wrists

i think increasing xp rates across the board will only widen the gap between solo classes and group dependent. increasing the xp 10 times will not help a lvl 30 warrior who cant even solo a light blue. if any kind of xp change is needed I would say lessen the harsh penalty on hybrids. would love to see more pallies make it out of the 30s [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] i dunno. i leveled a mage 1-40 in weeks (3 or 4 days played) grouping the entire time. if i can do that on blue, it can surely be done on red in quicker time. its not a matter of xp increase its a matter of finding groups here to xp. xp is there just gotta party up and get it.
