I would agree. Hardly ANYONE knew shit about the game mechanics back in the beginning. I don't think there were 10 Bards that even knew what Kiting even was. And MQ's were not a sort of big thing until Velious if my memory serves me right. And I don't even remember recharging at all till much later.

It is only because we are stuck in the endless loop of Kunark, and people being a LOT smarter game wise, that we have all this stuff happening on here at all.

Like I, and others have said before, this game will NEVER be "Classic" ever again, because we all know way too much now. Our Virginity was lost a LONG time ago. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

January 2000 Post about how to swarm kite with PBAE songs.

I don't buy your "only 10 bards knew this" nonsense. It was very commonplace for bards to kite 1999-2001. Computers couldn't handle 100 mob kites back then probably, but bards certainly were kiting.

The tears and angst of the anti-kiters tastes like victory. Stop already. There have been rules put in place. If a bard is being a jerk, petition him/her. I swear, the amount of unjustified entitlement on some of you...
I also played a bard on live and never had anyone screech like this about my pulls. Guess what? The bard will likely level up and leave soon, so put away your diaper and act like a big boy and stop your whining.

So it is spoiled for all new players too? They need to put and end to this crap and not have a "but I thought I wasn't harming anyones gameplay" BS loophole.

For fucks sake you babies, go to another area, or peel a mob or two off the bard. Most times they don't mind as they understand th effects of their bard kiting.

You know what fuck it, i want P99 to be that way I want it to be. So all you devs and admin types need to stop working toward the betterment of the community as a hole and worry about the insignificant amount of time that I will spend in OT leveling while... so mother fucking... bard comes by to also level... fuck him. They should have to group... you know what also.... fuck it.... Killing treants around level 25 for evil races is bullshit. Im a human druid. I should be able to kill them without having my game effected and ruining faction. So devs.. when you fix the tiny little problem of bards kiting in OT, please make the game better for me.

kk thanks.

TLDR: fucking cry babies.

Wow, could not have said it better. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Oh and by the way I was wrong about 10 Bards knowing about Kiting. There were 11. Get real. it is like 11 people on here that even doing it now. How many Bards do you think were even playing in the original Kunark, 2 million people?? And most were women, and I really doubt many women throw people under the bus like men do.

Velious came out in December 6th 2000. I really doubt many Bards were even in Kunark zones by then. The original EQ came out March 16th of 1999. SO in less than 1 1/2 years every Bard on EQ was kiting, sure, yeah, sure.

I love these posts. Reminds me of the lazy jobless who participated in "occupy wallstreet". If you don't rememeber this stuff from classic, you were clearly not part of the 1%.
