For a few reasons I believe. First, there's a small number of them who just don't give a fuck about pve, cwall for example. There's nothing wrong with that this is an MMO and you create your own fun, but the majority of people do care about pve to some degree. The confused "anti pve" message the opposition gives off at times turns people off.

There's also the tin foil hat wearers who think rogean flipped the switch on them purposely. While it sucked for them and their strategy, I hope the rogean stream confirmed that rogean has no clue what the fuck is happening on red and didn't flip the switch to favor a team over another. They also would rather cry about variance then use the current system to their advantage to snipe overlapping targets.

A lot of them play this game as ForumQuest, so they don't want to risk dying in game even if it means impeding nihilums progress. A lot of them just give up really easy. A lot of them go about this whole thing the wrong way. I guarantee if they toned down the rhetoric in ooc which pisses a lot of nihilum members off and spoke with nizzar he would throw them a dragon or two to gear up with and get their members motivated. But pride will never allow that for them. Nothing wrong with pride, but I'd rather be humble today in order to brag tomorrow.

There's also the issue that lite is a polarizing figure so I doubt he would be able to really make much happen with the heresy core on a regular basis, and vice versus lite has a small loyal following who as we've seen before will follow him into the yeti caves to their certain doom.

This is all why I'm excited for team99 with new people without baggage and bs.

New blood would be nice, but you have multiple players talking about how much they will grief everyone on the new server, which runs the risk of alienating the new players. I am starting to think that certain players are not interested in actually playing EQ (PvP or PvE), rather they find pleasure in others pain. Maybe some of the "box heroes" were AFK long enough so that most have forgotten they really just want to burn it all.
