Dude, there is more to EQ than farming Efreeti Lord Djarn. Is that all you fucking do?
Just had my first experience with a 6boxer rolling into camp and taking it/ksing. Fourth Meal douchebags. Guy named Xeldon. Officers/leaders did nothing, despite being a "family guild". Kept telling me that if they are just sitting in the room, they can't do anything, but to let them know if they do anything ! Well dumb ass, they are ksing the room mobs and messing up the spawn cycle that I have broken, and what else are they going to do when Efreeti pops? They are keeping buffed and sitting here for 40+ mins (kept ph charmed, idiots didn't even seem to know). So I kill it eventually and Djarn spawns, which sucks cos I had like 10 ph in a row, and of course they KS.
I haven't experienced a single 6 boxer that isn't a complete douchebag. Dude was totally power hungry and basically wanted me to beg/grovel and treat him like a god just for the mere tease that he "might not KS". He wasn't even remotely trolling, just a total loser. Said that I already have both of the items so too bad. Funny how the officers/leader kept acting like they are a family guild and do indeed respect camps though, and don't want me to spread bad reputation about them. Uhh, that's why Universities expel cheaters and why companies fire scammers, if you don't enforce rules, then you don't deserve a good reputation. And that's how I've experienced every 6boxer yet. No offense to any of you that do it. I know one or two of you do and don't do that shit.
So yeah if you do camp Efreeti, do not respect Fourth Meal camps at all, or anywhere for that matter. And especially Xeldon.
Edit: Mainly pisses me off because I can't train. So I have no way to fight him.
This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we will be lucky to live through it.
You say "intense high end guild" as if it's a hard thing in Classic to raid, or that there is any intensity to it at all. It's not.Until I get a good group to do things with, yeah, pretty much. Not interested in an alt. I've not yet had the opportunity to go to hate/fear and don't want to join a big/intense raiding guild. Joined up with old Afterlife today and Thott might come play so that'd be cool. Also, what else is there to do in classic if you don't have a guild to raid with/don't want the intensity of a high end guild and don't have a group of people to do shit with yet? I've got 21ish kronos more than I had 3 days ago that can get gear, and my gear is pretty good. Efreeti also lets me do other things at the same time irl. It's only been a couple days.
I'm not looking to RMT, just want to be able to gear myself without having to be in a high end guild. What's teh probs yo? People poopsock to get ahead. I'm farming efreeti while I can get the camp to get ahead.
If the KSing gets too bad, and you can't train, then what the hell? You just lose any camp to a 6 boxer or mage army? That'll make more people quit. If it happened to me constantly I don't think I'd play. Most of the time I play EQ it's doing group content, so that can all be removed by KSers. And then what? Man I miss old EQ where your reputation mattered.
It's hilarious how bad the KSing is getting, it wasnt this bad on phinigel. People had "some" respect minus a few undesirables but for the most part it wasnt all pick hop ks pick hop ks. It'd be like pick hop ks take camp stay put.
I don't play but was reading the faq, I thought boxing was bannable on this server? Wet noodle rules?
Who is ancient coalition. I got into a group with them earlier for a bit. Every other pull 1/2 the group died and apparently /assist, the tank, puller was a foreign concept to them. I realise it's pretty low lvl stuff. They kept saying with 6 people that the bonus is soo good it doesn't matter if you die every other pull. Sadly they may have been right cause the exp was pretty high but the fun factor was pretty low.
It's True box not no box. You can play as many characters as you have computers for. People do various VM things to get around it, but that's all technically bannable.I don't play but was reading the faq, I thought boxing was bannable on this server? Wet noodle rules?

Boxing isnt bannable. You play one account per computer. Used to be you're not supposed to be able to broadcast, not sure how it is on agnarr but on phinigel they stated that in the beginning and it loosened up by kunark. They don want you using VM's though but they havent exactly gone out looking for them either.
It seems to me only player report is what leads to anything happening, otherwise they dont give a shit. Even then as long as you're not afk it seems fine. Had a gm watch a guy broadcast AE sebilis and he didnt do damn thing. There were people with /pet attack a_fire_beetle farming last server and they didnt care if it was automated as long as you were at the computer, didnt care if you couldnt see it but the command worked and you werent afk. Play ball.
Now run around with like 12 characters thats going to be bad news bears and rubbing in their face that you clearly arent manually playing all 12. Some people manually play 6, they use gamepads (seperate numpads) and just line them up and hit the numbers with each connected to each computer. Some find other broadcast software that works.
And when they visit you they dont always pop out and say Hello there! They watch you, move you around, summon you places, fuck with you basically. One time I had my whole group get disconnected while my commonlands toon was still online.
