S10
Outstanding news very glad to hear that this was all part of the plan all along
things are moving in the right direction!!
keep knocking the problems out of the park!
oh, while the topic of lowbie (sorta lowbie) content is hot, a good example of 220's having to run their lowbies through content is ado brain quest. the ruins guardians, Don baraton (or whatever his name is), the muddy dryad, and the tower keeper could be toned down to the point where a team of TL4-5's, which the loot and quest are designed for, can do the content, without the help of a 220.
I'm sure others can point out other content that fits in the same catagory.
oh and lol, nice simpsons birthday card on the shelf. just noticed that

wtf happened to my avatars eyebrows?
I used to listen to Dubstep in the 90's... every time I connected to the internet.
Now I'd just like to say one thing to everyone who so fiercly defended the s10 bounties proclaiming they had absolutely nothing to do with the economy going down the toilet and that is:
Hopefully ICE will be put back in. So much for just making that 150 fix to go in there to find some for doing raids.
Gief ICE back ;x

To devs: You failed redesigning MPs as NTs with pets. I want my debuffer back.
Dreamer: Basically - I wish THIS much effort was put in to ALL profs rebalance docs.
Kintaii: Genele is more hardcore than you, your guildmates, and anyone else you've ever played with
Anarrina: Trust me, I'm not that scary in real life.
Im not a big fan of recent s10 changes but id really like to see it as raid zone again as it was in the beginning. Raids are the thing low - mid levels lack the most (well endgame too).
No matter what you plan for it please, please, please dont make it:
1. Soloable.
2. Zone just like everything else: "doc + enf proplayer team lf crat and only crat, get lost if you dont have one".
Encourage massive raids that require a bit different twinking than todays "solo - dd" ( more benefits from support oriented toons). Maybe generals should be instanced and ql of general would depand on numer of raiders inside? Therefore the more people the higher general lvl, the higher his level, the higher VB ql? Anyway, good luck, dont screw it up,we all know you can hardly afford more player loss

wow i cant wait to see what will be coming next!
*eagerly awaiting more positive changes*
It's not about defending the S10 bounties, it's about letting people know the truth about a certain problem that was causing a credits boom which was thankfully fixed about the time that prices started dropping again (OMG long before S10 bounties were fixed!!)
Oh and I don't have a S10 twink

Aramsunat: WRONG! The team supports the crat if the crat is unable to solo (which is rare)!
Hey guys, I was curious, so I used the latest forensic technology to get a closeup of the screen on the left. The results were pretty interesting.

Will the perk reset guy be getting cheaper for lowbies now that we don't need that cred sink anymore?
Thats pretty disingenuous of you.. It was important to me to have something different do do when I get bored farming on my 220! Spending a few hours playing in S10 or 150 BS actually broke down the monotony having to grind hours of <name your poison> to afford that next piece of equipment.. S10 never was my sole source of income..
150 is (was) a culture.. Enabled by S10.. There's never been so many everywhere before and made a great way of meeting people. It gave a lot of people something to do and now you've knifed it in the back..
There were so many ways you could have addressed it like lowering bounties drop rates or value.. Going nuclear on the community was uncalled for..
/Lyle
p.s. Don't know where you got your info from.. In the times I've been there everyone's always been really friendly to one another.. The occasional train is by design, just like totw.. I've never seen evidence of the abuse you leveled at the place.. Here's an idea.. Why don't you answer the petitions quicker and wield your mighty ban hammer at them...
p.p.s Active toons on RK1 - Guess whats the second favorite after 220?
220, 4520
150, 2233 Surprise!
60, 929
200, 737
100, 481
170, 210

Seen both sides... the occasional train to fence by some1 grabbing too much aliums - or there were simply too much trashmobs - and the train on purpose because you just been in someone's "usual farming grounds" ...
However, i would like to see the ICE's back in. Not in an overwhelming droprate, but a fair enough amount to either supply your org's city raids or hell, selling.
However, let's see what they make out of s10 in the next update(s).

From personal experience I've seen
- Tons of training, some due to newbieness (understandable) and some intentional because people wanted to remove a person from 'their' farming area.
- KS/ODing... actually this was the reason I stopped going. I know a lot of people in game who took great joy in ODing people around them that were trying to kill in the hopes of running them out of the area. I was even in an org once, that I specifically left, because that type of behavior was their flavor of the month. I don't have statistics on it but I'm sure Funcom must have petition reports streaming in from S10 incidents on a regular basis. Going to stereotype here and say that the 'strong' that were engaging in this ridiculous behavior are probably more likely to be forum posters than the folks that are on the receiving end of the borderline harrassment. So yeah, its very possible you dont' see thread after thread about it because your usual thread starters are probably the problem causers in the first place.
Now personally, none of that would stop me if I wanted to farm there (which I didn't enjoy it due to witnessing said behaviors) beause my MA is wearing good enough gear to handle things.. but really... flagging up in S10.. seriously? Yeah that's newbie friendly when that poor tank mongos for someone to gank them.. NOT.
Good riddance to the S10 bounties.
Now since people are already pissed and whining.. how about accidently doing something to address the Ely kite team issue? "Oops, hecks now run from people too high to earn xp from them. We weren't planning that til next year but...."

Means, did you ever consider instead of completely shutting down the bounties in S10 putting a lockout timer on the Bursar, giving you direct control of how much a player could earn from bounties a day?
