Ultimately, splitting the server or doubling spawn rates is essentially the same thing. But a major part of classic everquest is the sense of cohesion and community, and server splitting and instancing wrecks that. Artificially increased spawn rates are not classic, granted, but at least everyone is still in the same boat with everyone else. The social aspect is crucial and I'm not eager to abandon it just because some stuff is hard during the first week of release.

Because if you split the server and then merge it back, you have doubled the rate of entry of plat and loot drops into the system for that time period... so there's a bit more of a ramification than you let on. You'd have to halve the drop rates to maintain the integrity of the economy, but now that solution doesn't look so good, does it?

The time to split was Friday/Saturday. Didn't happen.

Move the thread to R&F imo.

It hasn't even been up a week yet. I play casually (3 hrs or less a day) and I got to level 10 without any special knowledge or obscure camps. Classic EQ is supposed to be a bit cut throat. They already increased spawn rates in newbie zones to compensate for this. I'd support possibly increasing them even more for a while, but NO to splitting the server. You might as well just advocate for instances. Instances were just temporary too! And everyone got a trophy derppp!

Dang man I dunno what to say right now. Is the problem that there aren't enough exp mobs on planet norrath for all the players trying to exp grind them right now?

I guess its valid. At this point I feel like they are unlikely to do a split because the poopsock 1x skelly spawn is going to slowly wind down and the people that suicided through this period will probably feel bad that their deep efforts get nerfed if they make it easier for everyone when they have had like 1 day to camp manabones.

Green has not been up long enough yet to get an idea of player load cycles.

This absolutely sucks. Split the server, if not a few times. Seriously... if you're just a normal person without a premade group or guild from blue, the experience of this server is horrible.
