God I'm glad I'm not on E'ci. I only hope I can get out of Sol B before it
degenerates to the state of your server. Right now on Prexus, if you have
the pool room, you have about 15 greater kobold spawns that are all yours
and all the spawn points cycle every 25 minutes. Luckily people are kind
enough not to pull through you (so far), which means a constant barage of
XP. Has anyone tried Paw? Over camping of Lower Guk and Sol B was the
reason that "new" Paw came into existance I thought.
