Told you so! ; p

Conspiracy theory: Red XP intentionally nerfed to reduce population gradually ahead of an eventual merger with Blue/Teams, to minimize crying from active players.

Also, a lot of these "new" ideas for Teams (underdog team XP/stat bonus, IP restrictions, etc...) were covered in depth in a giant thread I made six months ago: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=120312

This Teams ruleset remains the most comprehensive and best-received of any that has been proposed.

Do you guys really think enough new players will try AND STICK WITH teams to make it better than red is right now (let alone better than red will hopefully be when the stuff in the works finally hits live)?

I personally HATE the teams ruleset concept [not being able to kill asshats just because they are artificially on "my team], but from my talking to many people YES, there is a far larger market for teams than red99 because it is far "bluer" by nature. It has much more of that, blue99 with a side of pvp aspect than red99 does.

be cool to poll blue for people who would roll on Teams.

Its not getting shut down but any kind of new PVP server will nuke its population to insignificance, so not too far off.

Im kind of curious what kind of numbers a teams server could draw

If it gets 400-600 it could work for a while, but i dont know, investing all that time just to know its gonna spiral down again, not too tempting

It was so simple to leave red alone and let people slowly build up the pop through word of mouth, fuckin xp loss in pvp, PnP, xp nerfs....

GMs, any word on when server will be back in Legends list? Starting to feel like it was probably done purposefully :/

The ultimate problem here will be that the box is currently owned by someone who doesn't really have a lot of spare time and interest in this server. Everything people are suggesting and proposing would make a lot of sense if it was owned by someone genuinely interested with free time or if it was a for profit venture.

The possibilities if Devnoob/Image were running Red99.
