I'm well aware, what is your point? That's not how the game ever plays these days. The info is all known now and people level faster and have better computers/internet. There isn't any challenge of needing to figure out zones/quests/mechanics, and there are far more high level alts to use.

There's no point in Green server being in Velious era for long, it's just Blue server at that point. Green server should be primarily about the pre-Velious era of the game. Anyone can play on Blue if they want late Velious era.

And to get actual Everquest, the game mechanics themselves need to be changed. Seeing as that's not possible for Green/Blue, since those servers are there to mirror the exact classic coding for museum purposes, it needs to be Red server that is used as the custom content server. That's where people would be able to play the game as it was intended to be played, and as it would have been developed had the designers continued to work on it, instead of just focusing on pushing out expansion content (or moving on to other games).
