Tell me why Red sucks

[Videri]

Hi P99, please post the reasons people don't play on Red99. Later, I'm going to make a poll to identify the most popular reasons. I hope to use that data to help the population on Red grow - not necessarily by recruiting from Blue, but from other games as well. No need to rage; just inform me, as though I were new around here.

As a red player, my biggest gripe is lack of ports and binds. I find myself stuck all the time on my alts. Offering 200p is sometimes the only way to get around. The server needs dial a port or a fuck ton more main wizards who dont sit in CoM all day dropping ice comets on newbs.

One non-classic feature I would love to see on Red is soulbinders though. It is retarded you need a caster to bind you in a city after you spend 40 minutes takings boats and shit to a new leveling spot. Being a melee sucks on red, plain and simple.

I don't think PvP in EQ is fun compared to PvP games that I already play. When I want to get my PvP fix, there's a lot more interesting options for me.

I think EQ PvP was more interesting on live when you had a choice of large population PvP servers with different rulesets to choose from. But an emulator with a FFA ruleset, low population, and no cycled wipes isn't very appealing.

I dig pvp, but hardly if ever play FFA, not even in the 90's on Quake servers. I generally go with faction pvp, or at least team based pvp like in CTF mode etc. I've spent tons of time in PSide1, the SWG GCW, WWII Online, EVE factional warfare, GW1 tournaments, GW2 WvWvW, Classic UO where we did red vs blue and then later this huge pvp/rp alliance warfare thang. Not even counting all my shooters etc. Really? EQ1 FFA? meh...

My experience with FFA, usually not very good communities. Too much anger and hostility.

My biggest problem with red was if you made a group of friends at lvl 1 by the time you hit 40 half of them quit.
