Interesting. Several main reasons for this. One is that server pop has been on the rise since p1999 was officially recognized, dispelling worries of a cease and desist coming down on the server. Second is the growing number of people realizing that the progression servers are not classic servers. Whether that line is drawn at Freeport or at monk fist and mage pet power levels. Third is the polarizing issue of boxing on live servers and how differently it is approached here versus live. Fourth is the dated velious release, drawing old timers back in prep for winter.
