Respect the grind. Respect this game. Or GTFO.

good point


edit: the largest obstacle isnt the game, it's the community. shutting down the pvp forums might help population

Few reasons for this...

a) grind is horrible... I was as hardcore as it got in Live, and well 10 years later responsibilities change, odds are people were playing other games to, and it just equals out to an overall frustrating experience... there have been times that I have logged on, played for 6 hrs and actually was further behind than when I started...

b) star wars, wow patch 4.3, etc things will continue to dwindle as GW2, diablo 3 etc come out.. this server imo was a year or two too late... 2 years ago, if it would have had a great pop

c) people cheating and absolutely nothing being done about it... y should I legit grind to 50 with work, school, gf, etc when the nolifers even tho they have 16+ hrs to play the game still go out of their way to cheat to lvl?

And there is a plenitude or other things that have turned me off.. but oddly enough I haven't stopped playing.. why? because EQ PvP at it's highest level is truly a rewarding experience, and a ruleset that doesn't exist in current games..

Don't give up brother.

Learn to make it fun for yourself. I understand that some people might go too far with some things and make it seem worthless to level legimately but it's all an adventure.

The biggest question you need to ask yourself is:

"Why should I worry about what someone else is doing if it doesn't effect me?"

I run around tee-heeing everywhere, having a good time. I've lost so many levels to pvp or just dieing to shit but I'm not going to complain about the exp grind. The journey of leveling to max level was most of the adventure for any game.

Just learn to make the most of your time. I don't have a lot of time to play while deployed but I make it worth while.

Because god dammit, I don't know about you but I just love killing moss snakes.

I'd play, but I might forget to fleet save one night...

And that would suck.

Also, no point in playing with all the known cheaters that have already been caught but get to continue to play.

Simply not worth the time to grind to 50, just to have to deal with the same hacking shitbags I dealt with on VZ/TZ 1.0-4.0.

On the plus side, the server can prolly survive with 75-150 people. Which is what it will end up at around March / April of next year.

1 dude supposedly cheated his way to 50!? and this has made you stop playing. No you aren't playing because you're a whining ass little bitch who could be xping right now but is wasting more of there time in life posting on a forum where they've admitted not wanting to play.

You see this is the problem pals. More pewpew less qq

Neg...

I stopped when the suspension / ban lists were not made public. And when people caught using MQ etc during beta were not banned for live.

Allowing clowns to beta test their MQ builds is not kosher imo.

Atm, my time is at a premium... yeah, I read the forums. Cause in 20 minutes, while doing something else or listening to something else, I can read, get some "Lols" at the drama, and move on.

It happens. Some people start to prep for their careers, albeit late as fuck, and dont have the time to waste on an endeavor with zero benefits and glaring faults.
