Does green need a third server?

The magic number of a classic server is around 500 people, just pick the server that's closest to that and you're all set.

I'd specify primetime numbers of 500 for vanilla, 800 for kunark, and 1200 for velious assuming the appropriate timelines have been followed.

Teal was great at first, but now it's getting rough at primetime and I'm finding myself not logging in. The hybrid struggle is real when you zone in MM and there's 2 other hybrids lfg (including another bard) and all the solo spots are taken on the continent.

At least Peaky Blinders is a great substitute for entertainment when you only have about an hour or so to give, so I can be patient for things to get better.

cheers,

I have about an hour to play at a time. I am on Faydwer. I come with a 40% xp penalty. All the camps are taken, and there are 2-4 other lfg'ers that are more "attractive" to groups for eventual spots.

I'm sure if I waited 20-40 minutes I would eventually get a group, but that's almost all my playtime. I can't solo in the meantime because all the camps are taken. So I prefer to do something else with that one hour.

It's my problem, and if I had 3-10 hours to play consecutively per day it wouldn't be a major issue.

All I know is I can't wait to see how Fungus Staff and pained soul and rotting skeleton and Chancellor Di'Zok all play out. Will we have lists for Verina Tomb? Will everyone ever finally realize that the classic timeline is working AGAINST their dreams of "experiencing all the things they didn't get to on blue" instead of for it?

Lol.

Given all the comments and suggestions over the manastone camp, and everyone wanting legacy pixels...combined with some of the RNF content calling people out over stolen orc legionnaires, is a third server the solution here?

Maybe we should just split the server until there is an average pop of say 50 per server...that way this manastone camp and all of the other shit people are complaining about is easy to get. Or how about this!...p99 staff just summons a manastone to everyone's inventory! Lol seriously I think its fucking funny all of the no job idiots having to spend 40hr straight for an item in this game. Hopfully doing so causes some sort of irreparable damage to their health. Get a job, life, and real priorities and let this game come somewhere after those...

Each player should have their own server

Way too low, when live still had numbers most servers were around 1200 at prime time, though they were a bit more spread out in level and hunting grounds than green is because we're all maximising our exp in the most optimal zones because they refuse to fix the ZEMs

[Zerric]

You start splitting servers you kill the population. Eventually people stop playing and the good population split into 2 turns into ok population at the start, and 6 months in turns into dead zones population.

Playing for only an hour at a time is the very definition of casual play. Spawn timers are like 28 minutes in a lot of places. Classic Everquest just isn't the game for you sorry. Try Everquest 2.

People who only want to "play an hour" shouldn't play any MMO at all as their progress will show. Esp in only an hour a day of play time.
