Sony will never character wipe the Test Server again. They openly said it was a mistake the first time, and said they wouldn't do it again.

Anyhoo, good luck to y'all.

Is offset hacking going to be allowed?

I'd go if we went on the test server~

Test doesn't wipe characters anymore... they haven't in years.

I dunno I kind of dislike the /level me up mentality of the Test Server. Some of the most fun shit in the game was killing Orcs in crushbone when you had a good group of people. Tuco you should probably add a preferred server to the other list of questions.

Tuco · 09-20-2007, 12:23 PM

I have no intention of using test-buff to bypass half the content I miss, but I do understand the benefit of allowing people to testbuff themselves to 25 if they want to join up after missing out at the start.

However, I don't think that's a big enough reason to go to the test server, since so many people want to join the Combine one.

It's not like you would be forced to use the /level command, it's just there if you want it. Would be cool as well for people that decided to show up a week or two late to the party. If I remember correctly, Test also had one of the best communities and also a very low population. I think it would be ideal. Also, keep in mind a lot of people are coming back from a very long hiatus. I wouldn't discount the fact that you can get all the expansions for free if you play on Test, either. A lot of people are going to be missing a lot of random things that may make it difficult after a month or two to decide what to do.

Tuco · 09-20-2007, 12:26 PM

I'll take a look at the test server tonight.

Zhakran · 09-20-2007, 12:35 PM

i vote combine. screw test, you can't leave it, it's like ugh. pop is super low. at least with combine, if you want to, eventually you'll be able to leave, or join up with a guild that raids.

Test is just

Right in the middle of an NFL Sunday? Now we know who doesn't like Football.

Tuco · 09-20-2007, 12:38 PM

I live in Detroit. I went to university of Michigan. My two teams are the Lions and the Wolverines.

I'll give you one guess why I don't watch that much football.

However, our times will vary. This time will be on Sunday, maybe next time it will be Friday (Actually, if we're successful people will probably want to go again on Monday =P ). So if you need to watch Football at the bar, it's okay, you can come again.

In truth, you could just watch football while you autoattack rats. It aint exactly going to betwitch-style combat for the first 10 levels.

Zhakran · 09-20-2007, 12:38 PM

oh damn good point.

I <3 me some NFL.

however, one of the great things about EQ, vs. say....a 25 or 10 man WoW raid, is that you can actually watch the game while you slay the monsters. Hooray auto attack effeciency~

And more likely than not soon to be 3-0.

Too true, 2bit... too true.
