The lower population has been most noticeable in the dearth of new guild creation, especially a distinct lack of new leveling guilds/newbie guilds on Blue of late.

With respect to an above poster, sure we launched with low populations, not much over 100 at first (I ought to know, I was there), but it grew soon enough (and kept on growing) and the old world with ~300 people is a lot different than a Velious world with 300 people. More generally, I'm amazed P99 maintained a stable and large population for as long as it has. It could close up tomorrow and I'd call it a great run. It won't--P99 should be around for a good while yet, even if in a state of gradual decline--so it has to be regarded as a tremendous success. I've played P99 FAR longer than I played original EQ at this point, and like it better.

The hardcore raiding scene is probably going to go down the shitter for a decade or two until our kids are grown up and we start having more free time again, at which point P99 will still be there (most likely).

So I wouldn't worry just yet.
