We've discussed this for 2 days already, here's the response of the community: https://www.strawpoll.me/15913897/r
And a lot of the people who said 'yes' were probably trolls, mind you.
Don't incorporate this thing, seriously don't, this would be a huge mistake.
It'll be tuned down sometime soon. Unfortunately it was / is needed to ensure that people spread out properly, including the zerg stuck in the lower levels, once this has flattened out a bit, it'll be readjusted.
Edit:
Here's some more data showing playercount (as dudes) and levels.
- "There are tens of thousands of active players on LB, even with the currently diminished concurrent population, and this does not include all the people who are waiting for fresh. If you think that 50 or 200 or 400 is representative of the player base, that's just not true. "
I think it's pretty safe to say that those people that is active here is also they people that should have a say in the matter, and not just some random strafer passing by. (Just linking the poll to show it's over 600 people that decided to show their opinion) How do you expect to include that tens of thousands into the discusion?https://www.strawpoll.me/15913897/r
" Some people care about it. Most, the overwhelming majority are completely clueless that it is even going to happen. It's a perennial problem, and something that GMs deal with constantly that players don't know what is happening and why even when you exert ourselves to the utmost to let them know. "
I agree, 90% of the server dont know shit about it, or care. In that case, why should their opinion even matter - It's not those people that will be hurt from this change, but it will be the top 10% that try hards (the core if you may will), and spents 16 hours a day on this server?
" That's why I felt it prudent to issue the clarification; because you may have gotten the wrong idea."
If you say so, but it doesn't look like it. But thanks for clarrifying though.
Also, can you unban me from discord? :-)
I tried few VPN providers, for me NordVPN was the one who I decided to stay with. The speed drop compared to others is quite low, and the price was acceptable, I think they are one of the cheapest, at least compared to those that I tried.
Assuming you are in China, I use XunYou VPN. It's all in Chinese but you can pay with Alipay.
You can also use a different VPN (like Astrill, ExpressVPN) but make sure its set to tunnel everything (not just browsers) and its set to Europe, as the server is located there. I get like 150-300 ping in Suzhou
Download Autohotkey and use this:
> #IfWinActive World of Warcraft > > XButton1::Shift
And here is a list of key codes. Xbutton1 is Mouse 4, so you can add Mouse 5 under Xbutton1 like XButton2::Ctrl or whatever modifier you want.
Lol no, it's a serious site. I have used it many times. https://haveibeenpwned.com/About They keep track of all known breaches and can inform you if your email have been used on a hacked database. For example, I have used the same email for everything for over 12years and I have been hacked on Adobe, Wildstar, Dropbox, vBulleting and some others sites. Not a big deal, I have gmail with 2FA and gmail have excellent anti-spam.
I checked https://haveibeenpwned.com. This is the forum data breach.I have 5 accounts ingame with different emails and 1 forum account with 1 email.Only the email associated with the forum account is breached.The passwords in that data breach are encrypted.I don't really care if some hackers have my Email address, Geographic location, IP address, Hashed Password, Username.I have dynamic ip and I have throwaway account because of the past experiences with private servers.Playing on private servers is free entertainment,I never donate or pay anything.They can have my throwaway email.I don't care if they sell the database,gold or characters.I just play,have fun leveling and hanging with friends and do my thing.Free entertainment.I bet that you are one of the 99.9% that never donate,never pay for anything but cry.We all know that nobody will work for such a massive project for no benefits(small or big).
You shouldn't have any "actual passwords" to begin with. The only way to be secure is to have an unique password for everything. Even the most reputable websites or services have had leaks, and if your re-used passwords are in one of those, basically everything is open to hackers.
Check https://haveibeenpwned.com/ if your passwords are already out there. Even if they aren't, new leaks are discovered all the time and the undiscovered ones are the most dangerous.
Keepass has a build in feature called autotype. https://keepass.info/help/base/autotype.html
You press a key bind and it it autotype the username and password which match the current window in focus. You can customize it a lot. I have been using keepass for years without browser plugins.

Elysium had an opt-in page for 2FA though I'm not sure if Light's Hope has one up as of yet. So you may have to wait.
