Yeah Kylok and I both played on p99 a lot last year, and around Kunark launch I remember several folks getting banned/deleveled for exploiting the OT hammer faction quest(sarnak war braids). It was WAYYYY bugged, xp per turn in was ridiculous.

On a side note, who goes to p99 after getting burned out on EZ? That's just stupid. The reason Kylok and I came here is b/c EZ doesn't require a 40+ hr a week time commitment to progress/gear up. Nostalgia aside, classic raiding sucks! Especially with spawn variance....ugh.

If you scroll up in this thread you will realize that Hunter doesn't give a crap about drug references, unless they are both drug and sexual references in the same breath (see Midol). Best not to beat a dead horse on that one. Blunt Smokers probably ain't going anywhere anytime soon.

And he is busy, do a little digging on forums and you'll see Hunter has like one day a week to deal with all this bs, in addition to coding, fixing bugs, and devving new content. Not to mention his RL job....  If, as Kenshou says, he has responded to an e-mail about Rubbin's toons, those accounts are likely banned already.

Somebody just took Philosophy 120 last semester....

Yeah my new warrior is named Anallein Mandragoran. Fantasy names FTW! Moar Wheel of Time names!

Before the t3/t4 spells, the only other thing I cast on my pally besides what you mentioned is Pious Fury. It's an additional 150dd proc. Not a whole ton of dmg but it all helps.

Also, please tell me you're using FoH!

Omfg everyone's getting along again!

Makes me happy that the Kylok v. Xiggie flame war is ovah!

In all honesty, I feel as though I should have just gone to Hunter as soon as I saw my name on this thread and asked for a name change (which I have done). I just want to make it clear once again that I didn't roll my toon with this name, or post on this thread, with any intention of instigating drama. I feel like forums, especially RnF sections, lead to people's intended messages often getting misconstrued. Subtext, inflection, and tone are very hard to properly communicate through text alone, and I make no claim to being a terrific writer.

Xiggie and Fugitive, thanks for the kind offers! If Hunter decides to just ban the toon instead of doing a name change, I feel like it will be best to regear my toon myself. See above posts about self-sufficiency. That's half of why I always pop instances for everything. I'm willing to burn 10k on a quick 15 min Tacvi run just so I don't obstruct others being able to play the game as they want.

Best regards to the folks at Dignatio and Rage. We'll see ya in-game!

He's prolly got an inbox full of "Please ban Fapfap" right now Xiggie.

Again a point Kylok made was that when we came to the EZ server, we figured silly/inappropriate names wouldn't be a big deal since it is, after all, the EZ server. Had I known that people took this server this seriously, and felt the way they did about names, I never would have rolled my warrior with that name.

Hunter bans me, oh well. I'll reroll Frapsfraps Please Dont Ban Me Hunter.

The point I'm trying to make here is that you may have every right to write someone off as immature or someone you're unwilling to play with because of a silly name. However that seems a narrow way of looking at things. I don't think we've ran into each other once in game Xiggie. You don't know anything about my playstyle, maturity level, skill set, etc. Yet you're willing to throw people out with that bathwater.

Good luck. I bet your ignore list is a million miles long. Always seemed a silly way to play a game to me. Meh.

My 2c. I'm done watching this thread now. Trolls abound in these parts.

I find it incessantly funny that this small issue has gotten blown out of proportion.

Let's stop discussing it, cause it appears nobody's gonna agree.

BOTTOM LINE: My warrior's name has offended the server Gestapo, and Hunter will do exactly what he wants to do about that. Period. Stop talking about it please.

Apparently Kylok speaks for me!

We do play together though, often in the same room, so I guess that explains why he's so heated about it!

I second almost every word he said!

Exclamation points!!!!!

It's not an excuse per say. Just explaining myself. If the name is bad enough to warrant a ban of said character then Hunter may do what he wishes about it.

I personally feel that it's not super offensive especially in comparison to some of the others examples I've seen in this thread. But on a self-policed server I guess that opinion is irrelevant.

Xiggie, understand that I feel your point about maintaining a proper maturity level on the server and self-policing and such. If the language of my responses on these forums hasn't done enough to convince you all and Hunter that I can conduct myself as an adult then ban Fapfap. That being said your personal opinion about the validity of my "excuse" is irrelevant. Hunter's the only one w/ a ban stick. And I don't have to justify my naming choices either, I chose to because some of you were offended and I wanted to explain myself. 

Again, I'm sorry to any who were offended. Please don't ban me warrior Hunter!

Fapfap is my warrior! I didn't realize that his name had caused so much controversy, lol!

Fapfap, along with all my other characters, doesn't train, doesn't spam ooc, and doesn't ninja other people's mobs in pub. I am truly sorry if the name offends y'all. I personally think something like a name is trivial, and I would argue my warrior's is highly less offensive than "Rubbinon Yourchildren." That being said, totally childish. And I rolled him when I was stoned out of my mind and giggling with a buddy.

In any event, He's QVIC/Tacvi and 3.0 geared, so you're not going to stop seeing him in /whos. I'm not about to delete a toon I've put hours of work into b/c the name offends some portion of the server population. So far I've recieved 0 PMs or e-mails from other players or Hunter.

If Hunter takes serious offense to this, a name change is fine. As you all said, that name is technically against the rules....

-Byronosaurus!

I play a BST and my buddy plays a MAG, and we're both working on CG/2.5s atm. Also leveling some alts for a box squad, a PAL, SHD, CLR, and WAR. Possibly an ENC at some point. Neither one of us would be able to box more then 3 toons at a time.

My question is this: what place would we have in the Qvic + and beyond content? Are there any guilds currently recruiting those looking to get into the higher end content of the server?
