Nilblog,

I agree with you on the point that zone names should be excluded. If people want to know the specifics they are always welcome to use /ooc. Or you can /tell one of the people involved in the fight. Either way it helps communication between people and i think that should always be a top priority in EQ.

yellow text is a must for pvp. every passive (and entertaining) feature helps. pvp is all about drama after all

A server with this kind of population divided into 4 teams would be a nightmare though, just limits grouping even further for classes that have a tough enough go as it is.

If the server has enough people, and divided up to anti versus pk (like live), teams always form naturally. You have alliances form based on their politics, and your teams basically become those guilds and alliances.

The whole 'everyone is fighting everyone' thing kills servers. Too many people are playing here like its just a fast paced, progression, disposable pvp box. If a real sense of community was ever established...

Good to see you around Nilbog. Thanks for all the work. Would be nice if we could find a few other features that might work on R99 and please the masses.

Hard coded teams would be impossible at this point, its more of a what if fantasy. As far as YT, it was the one thing I took away from LoZ that I liked. Just seeing the YT caused some lols. Why not enable YT the next 2 weeks before Kunark to see how it goes. Oh and keep zone name, it completes the story and the lol of the killing.

This thread has made me more optimistic about this server. Good to see options are being considered, even though it's semi bitter sweet that it's happening this late (hey I can't be all positive [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] ). What's the anti nihilum guild now adays? Are there 50s not in nihilum looking to level up on kunark release?

really depends, active wise there are at least 10+ 50s and more 46+ that arent tagged Nilly however i can think of 2 guilds full of 50s that mite come back. If even half the former players come back, gonna be some real competition.

I think its mostly an incentive for bragging rights, but it also lets you know where the action is.

yellow text is a no brainer. just implement it and see the server growing. leaderboard would be the next step afterwards.

do it right nilbog!
