Wow. Did this thread ever derail from the original topic from how to get people to return, to the elite guild members fighting among each other.

None of the argument of what's happening among the elites is going to do a thing to get people to return.

sorry be one of the de-railers

1) the xp bonus did up the numbers of players on the server; I think that if there is a slight xp bonus year round, that would help people with the grind and thus make the game either more enjoyable or one would get more return for their time. I would even be down to have "hot zones" that rotate. Like this week the Hot Zones are KC and Unrest, next week hot zones are HS and Mistmore, then another week is Old Seb and Sol b. This would kinda focus the player base and make it easy for people looking to level up. (ninja edit: hot zones could be 1) high end dungeon 2) low level dungeon and 3) an outside zone that is good for almost all levels -- this would give ample places for people to gather and level)

2) GM events: I know some people are really interested in BOB and are getting ready by collecting clickies (which I dont think are going to be allowed) and practice jousting.

3) I remember when the Hole was added to p99, that was a busy weekend in the Hole. I think at one point there were 6 diff groups xp'ing in the Hole. The Hole has some nice caster gear, both INT and WIS, and those shoulders for the right race have great reisists. So what I am saying here is more content brings in people back. When were the Warrens added on live?

basically I want more xp and more zones to level in. Give me velious and take away hybrid penalties and I would be a happy camper.
