OK, we need a board mod.

If your native language is not engrish, I certainly understand, and respect that. However (notice, I didn't use "that said" as it is trite, and annonying) - and I also understand some of you are young, and don't know any better -

..but the proliferation of 'dewds' here (see the 'how old are you thread') and kids that just plain don't know what-to-do (-100dkp) are getting a head start at ruining the community with knee-jerk responses that only sometimes even apply to the topic at hand. Or they are so completely wrong (managing to be insulting at the same time, of course) and typed out as if on a mission to aggravate anyone unfortunate enough to lay eyes on the literary disaster.

I submit that we need to nip this in the bud as the server grows in population, before it gets out of hand.

actually over the past few years I have found it easier to let it go for the first few days of a rush of joins, then it settles down as the impatient twits leave and the rest the are left who are easier to moderate and then you can just clean up the old threads....

I see what you did there KP

I've also noticed the proliferation of "leechers" who wait in cap cities, and beg for gold. Could you select a few people to be "sub-GMs" or something who have the ability to instantly ban repeat offenders? It's damn annoying, especially the 35 whispers per hour for "port to darnassus plx" followed by "give gold pls".

That's my rant for the evening ^_^

I'm going to have to second Smyle's request. I don't care about GM'ing or Sub-GM'ing, but the begging needs to be put under control. With the rates this server has... NO-ONE should have to beg for anything. Seriously. I killed Rend in UBRS and he gave me 1000g. The Kobolds in Elwynn Forest (Human starting area) drop 15-20s. Not to mention the sheer number of green / blue item drops they leave you. If you're so lazy that you can't farm gear on a server with over 100x drop / exp rates... It is my (and only my) personal opinion that you should leave this server, get off your computer, and find something more constructive to do; at least before you become totally lethargic and have your heart stop beating on you.

hahahaha comon people stop bothering the honest citizens of my realm they have enough problems as is with the crashing don't per them to death... go kill a low level mob and get a buncha gold.... go kill anything in MC and get a few thousand gold(i have seen around 5K as my part of the gold in 3 man party....)

Yeah! What Krypt said. Beggars make my pancreas hurt.

Bringing back an ancient topic of sorts. But I am really curious to know the answer to this question. What is bringing all the people from Europe / Asia / Australia to this server? Is the server that good? Are the servers being hosted in your area that bad? I'm not trying to pick on anyone or cast judgements; it's just piqued my intrests at the numbers we have If anyone can reply that would be greatly appreciated.

Actually, most of the 'popular' servers I see (in terms of posts / rating / uptime) are overseas - which is why I got curious

yeah those overseas basterious admins! they have steady servers!
