Yeah it's the same for me.

It sounds like he may have gotten his account and character back. Some GM must have gone off the rails. Hopefully Kungen keeps EQ'ing.

In the GM's defense, Kungen did straight up intentionally train a group on his stream.. twice. Not sure on the exact rules of the server but it's kind of inviting retribution when you do it live on a stream.

The 'exact rules of the server' were 'go nuts, noone cares'. The idea being that training, KSing, all that, would just be the lay of the land. Hence, "wild wild west".

Actually the server has the exact same rules as every other server. They amended the play nice policy before the server launched and the changes effect every server.
The only real change is GMs will not moderate mob disputes.

If we are going with :tinfoil: theories , I think it's a DDoS from people on red mad about the removal of global OOC chat! :tinfoil: :tinfoil: :tinfoil: :tinfoil: :tinfoil:



I don't even play on red, but that whole thing kinda pissed me off

No one is mad enough to ddos red because of ooc, its not even removed its still global and in game. Eunomia is just trying to moderate it like crazy as much as possible. Mostly stuff changed to like when someone dies, you can't say PRAS so people changed it up to various things, mostly "LFG" or "LFG class" that died, some people spew ooc bullshit tied to either LFG, guild recruitment messages, port offers etc. So far eunomia hasn't done poo poo about people doing the lfg and other stuff in place of old stuff. Personally I just stay out of ooc atm due to the fact eunomia for the first few days was on a warpath and i know 4 people who ate 21 day suspensions, CHARACTER SUSPENSIONS. Not ooc muted for a month or something, suspended for almost a month. We on red are going to be dealing with Eunomia, and whatever guide/gm comes over to red occasionally there has been 2 different ones back and forth on varying occasions. Sirken can't help us right now even if he wanted. Hes so not interested in P99 and wants to get away from it because he was being strangled from the drama alone of lawyer questing the petitions.

The New second guild that is opposing the top guild atm, is named <Good Guys>. It is basically Azrael, fresh, friends, couple other guilds inc most of god's work all combined together. With a multi person leadership, people leading for pvp and pve etc. So far its growing pains, its a new guild stuff always going to be hard, ive seen multiple guilds try to get off the ground on red, GG is on a good path so far mainly because it makes up the other half of the server so when Empire has 80 we have 80 to match them just half of GG is not in range to 60s and not nearly as geared. Many people aside from the ~20 people who are fully geared from past guilds ie nihilum, or empire itself and joined good guys. We have been taking dragons from them, It takes some work but so far we beat them on the first attempt doing trak and they really haven't come at us as a 60+ v 60+ pvp since, there have been some skirmishes around KC, TT/EJ with 15-20 people.

Anyway though, PVP on red is getting pretty -different- compared to the past. With the changes(I just started playing again 2-3 weeks ago so its new to me, but overall happened between 2-4 months ago for the new resist/hitbox changes). We have MORE AoN's then ever on the server, in the hands of both sides so you can see a skeleton battle with 40 on 40, and no name plates can be seen in skeleton form so its all weapon/offhand based view and /assist trains that win almost at that point. Also with so many new players, It appears each guild has been able to field a bard for every single group for majority of the main PVP battles. Which before, was almost never the case an entire guild having selos/resist songs. At the base of it, it still comes down to tstaff procs, windstriker procs, skean procs/rogue poison or tash/malo and any melee will eat a root. If you get tashed in these pvp fights your basically risking everything after that. I sit just over 150MR unbuffed, been rooted a few times just tashed. Seen some funky stuff like a person taking 1082dmg 4x in a row from sunstrike with 180FR, but who knows.
