Blue has overtaken teal
 

This is the first time I have ever seen Blue outnumber teal. Blue is at 645 and teal is at 640. I guess it makes sense though. Classic EQ has relatively little to do for end game so once you hit 50 then what? Wait months for Kunark while killing time on Blue I guess.

MMOs were better before people came up with the concept of "endgame."

That said, the only people who are out of things to do on green or teal are probably either 1) unimaginative and boring, or 2) playing for 14 hours a day since launch.

Leveling spots start to dry up long before 50 in vanilla EQ. Now is the time to get all of your alts into their 30s. Then you can start playing the real game when Kunark hits.

It most likely because stuff is in window or poping on Blue.

It is far more likely due to the fact Teal and Green have had dropping populations since November and Blue's population has remained relatively static. Sure Blue has a boost on the weekends, but so does Teal.

When 2 major guilds with 100+ people have dragons in window, population tends to raise. Blue is still dead.

Teal wasn't even released until November third. You're saying that the population started declining when the servers launched? What is it with you people? Green and Teal have781 and 654 players logged in respectively at this moment, and it is an NFL playoff Sunday. The sky isn't falling and we still don't need to merge.

Sure the lower population in the last week of November is skewed due to the holiday, but yea, over the course of November Teal's population was declining. It just wasn't as big of a hit as December was. Teal's peak weekend population is about 2/3 of what it was the weekend after it was released.

I'm not saying Teal is dead, but yea... Teal's population has been in decline since launch. Same with Green. It hasn't reached cataclysmic levels, sure, I was just stating that the reason why Blue is higher today than Teal is not because Blue has had a resurgence, but because Teal has been declining. Are you arguing that 654 is approximately equal to the 1065 Teal had the weekend after it's launch?

people thinking teal is failing with 600+ people online, however they never tell us how dead blue is with 500-600 with WAY MORE CONTENT. The whole of blue zones are graveyards. 150+ in EC out of 500ish online.

Teal is fine, stop it.
