From what I gather, you are spiteful towards our server because you were shown the door for being corrupt/retarded.

To correct what you've written: VZ/TZ has been around for some time, has maintained one of the highest (if not the highest) server populations, has one of the most active forum communities, and has the most legit/active staff you'll find anywhere. I work in the game industry and staff VZ/TZ in my free time simply because I want to, so you can understand why it sort of chaps my ass when someone attempts to slander our dedication and hard work.

I don't know who is running "Bane of Life". I just went to their forums and saw several people who had been banned from our server (one person in particular who took it as far as spamming trojan links on the original Tallon Zek forum). I also see posts from their administrator where they slander our server. You will never see that kind of thing out of us on our forums. That is not something we need to do, as our reputation and actions speak for themselves.

Good luck Richardo!

OP is such a loser. 99% of the time you know if something is right or not. If it's questionable you report it, and find out. It's what I do anyhow. If you were getting the same quality of loot that comes from the custom mobs, then you should have known better.

I am the only operator at this point and have yet to "hack" anything. What purpose do you really think was accomplished by this feat anyway? Richardo was hosting his own locked server with a generic database to simply play a joke, which I do not think he meant any harm by.

Way to take a quote out of context. That quote is referring to the heavy use of utilities such as MacroQuest and the carefree attitude from the staff on the VTZ forums. For example, the last time I visited, the first post I observed was a screenshot of mistyping cheats in public chat with nothing more than a bunch of laughs from the other players and moderators.

If you want to go down this road, I'd suggest you pick up on the staff history and where exactly everyone came from before you continue your blind flamefest.

I didn't simply download a PEQ database and launch a server with a known EverQuest server name when no other PvP servers we're available so I am not fortunate enough to simply launch a generic server. Thanks for your comments. :)

you were essentially exploiting, if you found something that easy to farm that was helping you acquire great trades with little effort.

the staff for TZ/VZ is top notch, they are not unreasonable people. you broke the rules by continuing to abuse something that shouldn't have been there. you can probably get unbanned by communicating with someone there.

Hey I don't know who any of you EMU dudes are, but fuck you.

We like VZ/TZ.

VZ/TZ is not only the best PVP Server....
It's got a rockhard anti hacking stance.
It's cut all the crap out from later expansions past velious.
It's got the most active community out of any server.
I don't think there is a pvp server out on emu that has ran as long as vz/tz.
I'm also pretty sure VZ/TZ is the top dawg of emu pops... We just broke 300 last night and even PEQ experienced a pop. jump as a result of the influx of new/old players from our server wipe.

haha oh man

That guy is such a kidder!

Thanks, High five!

The birth of /faceplant. The kid screenshotted hacking I remember as a gigantic newb in the newbiest guild on the server, not really a big deal, cheating isn't widespread as you'd think, screenshots of people bumbling a hack command in public chat is pure gold comedy and hardly a regularity. Would you prefer if everyone was shocked and screamed obscenities in hatred at said hacker, or laughed him off as a newbie?

Wha...Wait, what? Should of told your buddy Richardo!

No, thank YOU.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go play on the generic PEQ database pvp server, level up in tutorial, get flagged for PoE and pwn newbs with my AA's.

yoink
 

Smedy just owned this thread.

Until I release my new DvD (Developer versus Developer) server, there won't be a central place for discussions like this.

In all seriousness though, the flaming needs to stop now and if it continues, account bans for breaking the forum rules will happen.

I guess I need to start reading every server thread, otherwise I would have stopped this before it got this far.

As for the OP, it sounds like that is definitely something OK to post about here if they feel there is a real concern with server administration, and a reply from the server team is fine as long as it is just to clarify the truth and not starting a flame of any sorts.

Most of the posters in this thread were way out of line. Putting down other servers is not allowed. That doesn't mean that issues with servers can't be discussed, but blatant flaming is clearly against the rules here.

As far as quoting other forum posts here, IMO that is completely irrelevant to these forums. We have no control over what is said/done on other servers or their sites. So, asking for apologies here for stuff said elsewhere is a bit pointless.

Me and a few others recently stopped playing on VZ/TZ aswell due to all the hackers and childish people.
I cant wait for another pvp server that isnt run by the kids that play in it. For now though I am very much enjoying the PEQ server, even though its not PVP.

I actually reported a few bugged mobs and people exploiting these mobs on a few occasions and they were still there when i left, still being exploited and likely still there now. I agree with the topic poster and beleive everything he said. I wasted time on that server too.

Not sure where you got the information that he is working on GuildWars lol, not the case.

read what u all wrote? every server is gonna have hackers. vz tz has a strong staff. they stoped all the hacking as they found it. so really dont matter what server u play on, or game for the matter. u will have hackers. and as for this post. who ever started it about the loot off them mobs didnt read vz tz boards. would have knowen stuff he was doing was out of hand. instead he comes here and start all this childish BS that u all feed off.

heres your solution. delete post and go fucking smoke a fat one and deal with it. u got free eq. and all hands down vz tz ONLY pvp server UP atm so stop moaning.


kinda like that song by M.C. , dont go away mad JUST GO AWAY.

So we are overzealous with removing players who exploit and hack....but we never remove people who exploit and hack....gotcha.

Hot Potato imo.
