A lot of us still play R99, we just dont come to the forums that much anymore. Least I don't.

“ a lot of us “

Server was in 200 plus pop during empire

Server had 400+ during first month

Now struggles to break 30

“A lot of us”

I for one am GLAD it is still up. Its a museum you can visit from time to time. The great race is over, we won't ever have a launch like we did 9 years ago again. If they DID reset the server, it would be a sad affair like the endless RoZ and other small pvp servers where the same 20 people chew up and spit out the server.

red99 is better left like it is now, a graveyard, but i'd rather have a graveyard to stroll through every now and then than have it paved over for some cheap playground for a dozen brats to play in til they get bored.

Keep it sacred!
I get the point you're trying to make, but I don't think it illustrates the reality of Red99 well. It's kind of like going to Disneyworld for the 17th time and doing all the same rides you've done a hundred times prior. On Blue99, you can login five years from now and the same rides you remembered and enjoyed will still be there with people still auctioning off items in the EC Tunnel, groups still happening across Norrath, raids still ongoing both structured guilds and pick up raids, etc. It's a delightful experience you can pop in and enjoy for a bit and feel nostalgic about.

Red99 is an empty and deserted Disney with trash scattered across the ground; all the rides are shut down, and the shows are all closed. Once a week on Saturday's at 4am they open up Space mountain but it only goes at half speed and the lights are on. That's not a nostalgic walk down memory lane I'm interested in taking.
