A Very Reasonable Request

[Hardy]

there is TOO many things out there to get and if you arent high level or dont have the uber equipment youre a newb or a loser

hehe, that reminds me ALOT of Diablo2, if you didn't have hacked equipment you were a newb. Now I wonder who the newbs are, all the hackers got banned *chuckles* *laughs* *rolls on floor laughing* You are right though, I had pretty "so called crappy" items on my 52 druid, I got called newb a few times.

Right, Diablo II is old now, it's boring and hacked items are still available on it. Sojs became worthless etc.. etc..
Too many scammers in that game these desprit little boyz trying to have nothing but the best so I quit playing.
I was never called a newb/n00b/newbie on Diablo II though, even if I started a new character. I just dissed other players, haha.

I dunno. I've been playing eq fairly regularly for almost 3 years now, and still mostly consider myself a newb.

There are areas I know quite well, and things I am utterly clueless about. My highest live char is 36 or so, but I have likely raised more baby trolls to 10 than anyone else playing the game.

I've taken 4 different classes to 30, but never been able to convince myself to level far beyond that. The game just becomes annoying to me after that point.

I am also obsessed with new servers -- I love the mad rush of nekkid trolls trying to claw their way out of the swamp... (I was the very first person to ever kill Forager Grik on Tholuxe :P ) That magic couple of weeks where sand giants overrun oasis because no one can kill them...

anyhoo, I reallllllly like having the emu servers, because it allows me to visit and poke around some of the high level content that I would have never gotten to see on a live server. For me, GuildWars is very near perfect EQ for me. Levelling is easy enough that I don't get bored out of my skull... you can actually do something after level 30 without begging for groups/buffs. And PvP just rounds out the picture perfectly.

eh. this was longer than I wanted. I really just wanted to say, who gives a shit if you are a newb or not, as long as you're having fun????

Haha.. I think I like my "butts" just the way they are. :P
