Yeah, I remember around 2000 per server prime time. This server just feels over crowded because everybody is doing the same thing. We're all piled in unrest and mistmoore(because zem) when runnyeye remains empty, the gorge is empty, Dalnir, Droga and Nurga are all empty. Couple of druids kiting in Karana and silk farmers but Karana is basically empty. Permafrost is empty.

Nobody is exploring, nobody is seeing where a quest-line takes them. I guess a few people are maybe as many as 100-150, but 90% of the server is leveling their 3rd, 4th or 15th alt, grinding in solb sebilis or charasis, or smoking the chardok crack-pipe.

During classic I played from Kunark until Ldon and never got above level 47, and I rocked jade maces with a fungus robe hehe. Oh well, at the end of the day I'm pretty happy with our population. Chardok makes me weep a little inside. Why nerf low-hp bard kiting, but not nerf this? Oh well it's too late now, the server 60-pop and economy are already skewed. Irreparable damage. Plus it would be a shame to put all those RMTers out of work.

Why can't we have hotzones? This may encourage people to level in different areas. Probably not classic, but neither is everybody only leveling in a few specific zones. Neither is spawn timer variance.
