I dunno Bard you do have some valid points in there, but I think that's just sort of the nature of PvP games in general.
I mean you look at DOTA/LOL and there's a big "SOANDSO JUST FUCKING *OWNED* FAILGUY" message upon kills. Any first person shooter. etc. I don't think it promotes selfish play that much, either. I'd never seen anyone save their abilities for the killshot on VZTZ. It was more along the lines of "is your guild getting owned?" rather than any individual prestige. Both the broadcast and serverwide OOC channel add far more than they detract. And you can always filter them both off if it bothers you personally. | ||

lol what argument. It's not really an argument since you are wrong and I am right.
yt and a leaderboard aren't going to hurt anything. Not having them is stupid, if you don't care about a leaderboard then simply don't check it. Regardless arguing with you about two things that are realistically at the bottom of Rogean's checklist for a successful red box is a waste of time anyway. | ||

I guess that's the difference between someone like myself and the rest of you. You all seem to be fighting tooth and nail to have the exact same steaming pile of shit server that numerous devs have been providing the EQEmu scene already. I simply think it's time to evolve and work towards a server that everyone can enjoy. You think constant, needless flaming / drama in world channels is necessary to make PVP enjoyable - and I think that constant PVP and battles should speak for themselves without the injection of trolling for others to see. Personally? Yellow text doesn't bother me. I've not zone plugged a single time since playing EQEmu PVP unless it was to avoid xp loss death loops at bind. I simply believe it's time to start behaving with some semblance of honor, especially if you all want this server to evolve beyond what we've already had. Because realistically, if we all continue to act like incessant cunts to each other (which is only fueled more by yellow text) as has been the case in the past boxes, the population will shrink back down to reflect the select group that enjoys such behavior. | |||

I PvP to control my XP spots and maintain my loot whoring...

I think if you make a poll for this you will find that you're in the minority. I cannot really remember anyone disliking or being vocal against the global OOC or broadcasts on VZTZ. It adds to the competitiveness and stripping it out would be unpopular + make for a duller (albeit more "honorable") experience. Good analogy would be if they made it against the rules to trash talk in the NBA (even MJ talked trash) and got rid of highlight reels / instant replays of dunks. And yeah, I just analogized Everquest to basketball. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | |||

I mean this box is actually going to have competent ownership running it. It's not going to be like the boxes of the past with rampant flaming, hacking, dual boxing, griefing shit heads running it like they own the place. Well I mean one would hope anyway.
