Don't worry Nego, according to Phantom, no game should ever have to release more content. If they do, its because their current game was a failure. Obviously everyone should still be playing Mario brothers 1. Two and three and all subsequent sequels wouldn't even be necessary if they would have done the first one right.

Ok, lets follow some simple logic.
Red99 Release... Massive Population.
1 Month in... Exploits galore, Guilds starting to form.
2 Months... Holo banned for doing same shit Nihilim was doing.
3 Months... Casual PvPrs don't have the stomach to try to get to 50. (THIS is the bulk of any population, Same on Blue, the people who log in for a few hours here and these are the BULK of every playerbase).
1 Year later... 35 Population Max unless blue is down.
It's not about Kunark and Content. Its about the insanity that is the original Classic EQ Grind.
Hot Zones and a Monthly Double EXP Weekend will bring in a higher sustainable population than Kunark could.
Kunark WILL bump the Population (No one is saying otherwise)... but it will again, fade into nothing because the casual people will NOT log in after the first month. JUST like what happened when Red99 was initially released.
So you will pull the same shit now, and whine that only Velious will be the Savior. But you are completely wrong. Its about getting people in the front door, and showing them its not impossible to get to the second third and fourth floors of the house.
