Subject: Re: [EverQuest] EQ Weddings held in public


I've been to one there, one in POG, one in Gfay, and one in TwiSea at the Elemental Island. Beautiful all, mind you, but OMG the lag in TS! Even on the best of days that zone is brutal to my poor puter, and with the whole guild there...
 
The Gfay wedding had a reception in D'vinn's tower in CB, incidentally, and we had a couple of deaths from drunken revellers falling out the window...this was pre Luclin for sure, and possibly pre Velious...

First off, I agree with you.  Weddings held in /shout or /ooc are a bad idea.  Plus it defeats the entire reason why channels were made.  Anybody who wants to attend the wedding should just join the wedding channel.  Stop spamming up the public chat with crap people dont necessarily care about except who's involved.  Also, the waterfall in Thurg is a bad choice of places.  Granted it's beautiful to look at, but its a high traffic area.  They should expect people to constantly be running through there.  Especially for the reason you stated, training mobs to zone to escape.  Everyone does it, nobody's innocent, it's part of the game. 
 
Personally, I wouldn't think too much of it because there's nothing they can really do to you to get revenge.  And if they do want revenge then they have serious issues cause it's JUST A GAME!

Subject: [EverQuest] EQ Weddings held in public

I was in GD today and was slicing through wurms with my trusty
necromantic pet when 2 more wurms jumped me and i had to run.  The
closest zone was thurgadin and i had to pray to cazic-thule that the
coldain didn't hate Iksar Necromancers.
I had heard about a wedding being held earlier and i remembered that
it was at the waterfall by thurgadin so i shouted train to thurgadin
and remembered that i could FD so i did to make sure that i wasn't
killed and that the wurms did't spoil the wedding.  Luckily i was far
enough from the wedding that the wurms ran back to their caves.
Heres where it stars...  First of all the wedding was in OOC.  Bad
choice.  Second the peeps of the wedding kept telling people in the
zone to "Shutup" or "Stfu"  That was being rude.  I proceeded to tell
them that they should hold a wedding in SAY or a seperate channel. 
They all got pissed at me and everyone there kept vowing revenge on
me.  Made me a bit mad but i held it in so that i didn't purposefully
give them a reason to get mad.  They continued to nag on and on so i
allerted my guild and they all thought the same thing.  A Wedding
should be held in private chat and if others talk in the zone just
filter the ooc and shouts.  The wedding was very badly planned and
now i have a whole guild mad at me.  ( the other guild that was
having the marriage not mine)  I was wondering what you all think of
weddings in EQ and was i justified in shouting train and telling them
that they should hold their wedding in private if they don't want to
hear all the shouts and ooc's of a zone.
