I don't get it. Don't you guys want a more populated server? Don't you want to see 200+ people again on the login server? The real trolls here are the ones advocating no changes at all and that everything is healthy and a-ok as is.

Obviously what you are trying to do is increase the population by trying to tell everyone with every post you make that the server is doomed and how we are idiots for playing here or thinking population will increase.

Clearly I am the troll here.

That's what some of these nihilum trolls are missing here. It's not about winning or losing, it's about the excitment of the battle. A lot of us who are retired for the moment, from both sides, are not playing because there is no battle, not because we don't have item XYZ.

To alot of them, its "winning" that counts. Crushing opposition with overwhelming numbers, having exclusivity on raid content, not having daily fun pvp.

Some game mechanic that shall remain unnamed encouraged that lol

I agree with Heartbrand on this and its been my position from the start, we need game mechanics that fosters and encourages daily pvp, no event can beat daily, un"scripted" fun pvp.

No, tides change, and Big Bad HB is now realizing that he did try.

Sadly, your friends are over on LOZ creating more drama over box #953

They will come back, organized or not, I hope the 50-60 people over there take a moment and realize that if they come back to Red99 they would be 50-60, versus Nihilums, staggering, 15-22 lol...

You guys complain that Nihilum is a problem, but we are just competitive people playing on a not so competitive server.

Come back and try to shuv our face in the dirt.

I remember a few great battles before Agatha got rainbow punted all over Lavastorm.

After that, you guys couldn't keep moral up...

There was a time when you nazi fucks were so happy you were holding down Naggy's Lair.

Not for the Dragon, but for the sake of PVP..


You lost your spark, men.

Dust yourself off and clean the sand from your vaginal region and come do something about it!

Hell, all this forum war would make even better PVP war

daily pvp happens even with this low pop. here are a few random screens from the past 2-3 days. these are just the ones i remembered to SS. i imagine the SS from one player dont account for even 10% of the daily pvp that goes on. also this doesnt account for people gating away, plugging, ect. pvp is a zone away you just gotta find it (or let it find u.)

so again unless im the only one pvp ing on the entire server, daily unscripted pvp happens alot considering our player base. ps sorry Razz!!!!! I was blood drunk from making Valk gate away 10 min before u popped up.

Big misconception some people seem to have that FF moral died or something. We never had numbers like that, it was a fluke that for that week everyone was logging on at the same time and was willing to stay on for the good fight. Keep in mind even then we had to use some admittedly dirty tactics to delay you guys long enough till more people would log on, and then usually by the time pvp ended half the people logged off when it was time for pve. Come day 4 or w/e it was a couple members of the leadership went on vacation and we got half the numbers we had on other nights. Nihilum out numbered us, we tried to port around kill time, have some skirmishes etc hoping more would log on but it never happened. The numbers returned to normal at that point which was shit before 1am, and then burn out etc just killed it off.

Def agree with you on LoZ though, but the issue again is, a lot of those people never finished the grind here and after LoZ exp those people aren't going to sit here and kill 10,000or pawns to hit level 50. Changes need to be made here to have any shot of enticing some of those players, and many of the other people such as casuals, back to this server.

I'll come back if xp is boosted severely. Were here for pvp not grind99.

XP has been increased.

Umm we all get that, and we are all here for classic RED eq.

The difference is, some of us are in game trying to nurture community and keep the sever going.

and a bunch of other people (like you) are just bitching on forums.

and there "is no battle" because people do not log in to fight, its as simple as that. They'd rather 4 man all of veeshan's peak on a ez server. and use unlimmited hoop lifetap to insta gimp people when they feel like "pvping" there.

How many times do I have to bring up that week of pvp over Nagafen before yourside just up and threw in the towel and headed over to ez server to duo the dragons they could not kill here?

Anyways, i'd support the following compromises:

-Scaleing xp stays in but at level 35 when it has tapered off to a 20 percent bonus, leave it there, dont let it decay anymore lower then 20 percent. So 100 percent to 20 percent scaleing bonus from lvls 1 to 35, and flat 20 percent bonus from there onward. My foggy memory tells me SZ's bonus was around 20percent so this is appropriate.

-Yellow Text: Go ahead and put it in, I just do not care anymore about this.

-Temporary 50 percent or so xp bonus in the two weeks leading up to Kunark.

If you guys want more then that, then I'm sorry, nothing will satisfy you and you are just here to bitch about what "could of been" before Nihilum slapped you across the faces, with two handed, smothered in broken glass.
