Variance will have zero impact on red said it many times, ragefire was variance and nihilum got every single one for two months. You're fighting people who treat this game like a job and will sit at their comps for bonus dkp Korean style to spot the raid mobs pop and log on their trak alts or their inny alts. Abcabab hit nail on head nihilum wins cuz the opposition has been awful since day one.

Holocaust had no leader and a shit load of griefers who turned everyone off. Uprising was a joke with no leader. Imaginary friends was a joke. Founding fathers cares more about killing holocaust than nihilum. Red dawn was a bunch of egos. The ten lite guilds were jokes. Kringe made a good two week run with what he had but even before the light switch being flipped there were people like chuck and mornin who already were burnt out by the 4am trak raids and weren't going to keep doing it anyway.

I've told lite before but he's blinded by ego and narcissism, the vast majority of apps to nihilum are not people looking for easy pixels, they're people like stasis who apped originally because the opposition is a bunch of complete retards that no one wants to play with. I'm sure lite or others will use deflection or ad hominem attacks about me, but this isn't about me, what I'm saying has nothing to do with me. You can change the rules however you want and nihilum will still get 95% of the mobs if not more because of that as well as other reasons.

This box died a long time ago when rogean stopped caring and guard aggro wasn't fixed. It died way before the holocaust ban. It died in those first two weeks. Nothing can ever save this box, things like boxing perhaps limited to two like I suggested where accounts are tied so punishment hits them all, resists, pvp loot some other shit might make it better, but nothing short of new fresh blood via blue transfers is going to truly breathe life into this box.

My two cents from someone who has played here since week one and been in every guild and played with just about everyone at one point or another. It's night and day between nihilum and the opposition. You don't think there's dissatisfied people in nihilum? There are but none of them are leaving to guild with lite or Andis or sickpuppy. If there were multiple blue guilds here with mature leadership? Who knows. Who would risk their eq emu and velious life to leave nihilum for guilds ran by the same people who pack their bags every six to eight weeks and say wts 60 bard and aon? No one is doing that dawgs.

Let me put it in tl;dr form: 300 people aren't going to roll red for the shot at a vox horn off a Kunark dragon they sniped or a tunarian scimitar from innoruuk once every two to three months.

Are you tired of hearing about this yet?

Xp loss in pvp was stupid as fuck and it allowed one guild to gear progress with 0 contest for a year +

Reboot server with that fixed from the get go and i guarantee things will be different

I wont play on it though, neither will alot of people for whom eq isnt their purpose in life

Thats the catch 22, stay with this fubared status quo or reboot server with many people quitting

Oh well, guess they should have listened to player feedback when it was still time to turn things around
