    Their statistic never wrong, all numbers is 100% correct, here is it:
    Miragul 2.0 TLP = 7000
    FV TLP = 5

    Really it's not funny anymore.

    DPG are totally ignoring their customers :(

    If them not sure about able to support this type of server now, as someone else says here, just open regular server with any rules, even with slow exp, but after certain expansion this server become free-trade loot (as soon as possible).

    Thousand of subs on mangler prove their model his working also they going to have a boxing server,
    maybe thats why they do not want a free trade server if both servers are successfull maybe next year they might implement a fv tlp if they can afford to have a gm or 2 in game,when sony online was running the show they were loosing money now the company his profitable or both servers should be fv if we must but thats a gamble on their part.

    I guess we can start another change.org petition for a fv tlp server. It worked for Agnarr.

    if its the only way to make them rethink about FV TLP i am in!

    Or make ingame poll on some sub-only server.

    But anyway how ppl will know about this petition or poll if many of them not read this forum? If its official poll/petition and DPG put it on news or mailing to customers it will be more popular.

    Miragul failed because it was true box. Outside of the rabid TLP fans true box is deeply despised by the majority of players as for the vast majority of EQ history you could alt-tab to box. A great many TLP players regularly ask that true box be removed after some expansion or the other that suits them

    For the most part truebox is a real blight on the game and is only relevant in the earliest eras

    Well, I guess this means I get to continue playing WoW Classic instead. RIP hopes and dreams of a glorious return to EQ.

    The best answer to this were Niente's.

    There is no way I would touch a Free Trade high pop server with the current state - and level of CS given to this game.

    I'm guessing a lot of these people complaining here, are ones that sees an oppurtunity to exploit this.

    I just dont see why a "premium TLP" isnt offered make it be sub only and charge 39.99/ month hire a CS team with the extra money and problem solved? 20 years ago "legends" server did this exact thing more GM events, better CS and it cost more money per month.

    Nah I'm thinking I would probably true-box 2x int casters, raid with one and pass my old gear off to the box.

    I see FV rules as being a 'Twink your alt for free' Server and I like the sound of that

    In the FoH AMA the devs stated pretty emphatically that Stormhammer had a disproportionate number of CS problems and was full of entitled people who made CS miserable. Didn't sound much like they liked the idea.

    Maybe a good question for the next AMA

    I understand not enjoying dealing with entitled customers, but find someone who can do the job! Money talks charge more and pay more there is a sweet spot for it that turns into a win for everyone. I know I personally would pay $80+ (which is less than 2 new xbox/ps games) a month for a server that goes after botters / hackers. There are plenty of us with enough money that the price we are paying for this is laughable for what we get out of it. Thats why so many people pay for RMT its cheap! Raise your prices you wont know til you try! Cant be any worse of a dart throw than Miraguel or Quarm.

    That was along the lines of one of my questions for the AMA... Unfortunately, it wasn't answered. However, because they didn't answer doesn't mean they're not doing it or it isn't potentially on the table. It just means the information revolving around anything progression related is secret. Unlike a Free-Trade progression server, a krono-free premium server might be worth their wild. :)

    Well, you can finally stop waiting. It ain't coming.

    These people must live in an alternate reality or something. Only a few people??? FV ruleset invites fraud??? They lack CS support, but are creating a non-truebox TLP???

    I've been playing on TLP since RF was in classic. The only person i know that ever transferred of a TLP to a live server "accidentally" xfered to Zek during the plat dupe. People don't really xfer off TLPs.
  16. WaitingforMoreEQ WaitingforTBC

    Explain to me how FV ruleset "creates" more fraud. I'm waiting
  17. HoodenShuklak Augur

    People are more likely to accidentally open trade and give items away because items are not flagged No Trade.

    Years ago while FV was still restricted to a single character on the server I had a character I played there. A member of a particular guild tried to recruit me as my main on another server was a class that they needed. There was no way that I was going to transfer but I was told that was no problem as they had guild characters of that class that had been powerleveled and outfitted with really good stuff.

    A common ploy once was the jack someones character, transfer to FV where it would be stripped of gear which was sold and the character was then deleted. FV has a lot of good people but free trade really is a curse

    No

    They have said the same stuff about FV and PVP for years. The same people make multiple accounts to start the same threads over and over again for years. I admire your effort, but this really isn’t shocking to anyone.
