Default Playing on Blue and Red at the same time.

How many people have a character logged into both servers at the same time? I'm under the impression that a lot of characters are logged into blue that are AFK, because the player is paying all of their attention to red.

This makes the server seem like it has more players online than there really are.

I would like to see an IP block placed on the servers, so that you can only be logged into one per IP. (Unless there is an exemption on the accounts playing. So two different people can play on either server.)

This would make each server have a REAL population number, and not one full of people AFK.

but why would you do that? it's two separate servers and there is no need for it. why? so you can force people to be at keyboard?

I personally am always logged into both servers.

I honestly don't see this as a good idea at all.

on blue players can....

Track...
poopsock...
camp a spawn.....
sit in the tunnel and auction...

and still work on and develop their red character.

i see no reason not to allow that to continue.

Poopsocking is exactly why it should'nt be allowed. Why encourage that?

Allow boxing and this will be possible on a single server. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Whenever I log on and check, there are always only around 10-15 players LFG. This is total, across the entire server, and across all level ranges. Groups just are not happening as much as they used to. I think it is because more people are AFK playing Red, or swapping back and forth between them while they solo.

EDIT: 4:30 pm and there is 11 people LFG right now.

If everyone is on Red and Blue but AFK on Blue while focusing on Red, then how would an IP block help blue?

Not sure if serious, boxing would only destroy potential groups even farther and would make everything perma camped even more than it is already.

Clearly I am looking a gift horse in the mouth on this one.
