Pretty much the reason I don't play on Red very much. One on one is OK but when a whole damn group wants to kill you that pretty much sucks. Just too much stupid shit on Red for me.

I know there is some really nice people on it, but it is sort of like dealing with the public in RL, when the very first customer you deal with is just a total jackass it screws your whole day up even if everyone else you meet is nice.

I stopped going to seafuries because it was way overcamped. Same with most 50s solo spots.

There are some solid exp spots with decent plat drops that are not overcamped. Just go to more desolate areas...

If you like pixels and raiding, red is the server for you. If you like long wait lists, not getting a piece of vulak loot until 2023, constant petition wars, then yes blue is for you. There's a reason almost all the BiS beta copy chars are red chars.

We get it. Empty server = more easy access to pixels.

Some of us prefer a large community to fast levelling and easy loot. Get over it.

If it's empty how do we kill raid bosses to get pixels? Maybe yours is just over populated.

Red is large, if you need 1000 people to feel large enough idk what your problem is.

On a serious note it sounds like this "largeness" of the community just causes a problem for the inhabitants. Every cow wants grass but the grass is all being eaten by other cows. If i played blue i'd prob give up on hgs/or oot, to much competition for it to be any good plat.

Well at least you're describing R99 honestly. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Shrug. I played classic, and I remember how populated live servers were during Kunark. This isn't shit.

I came for the classic feel. Red doesn't have it.

Also, if red is so well populated, why are you guys constantly begging for more players?

Do you remember getting petitioned over the slightest things on classic tho?

The spirit of EQ was here in 2010... these days people are just mad, jaded and desperately trying to get their plat mountain to maintain its value.

Red on the other hand, you can start there and quickly level in groups and your plat goes further (imagine only having to kill 2500 Highkeep guards for item X, rather than 10k-12k of them).

Give it a try, neighbour [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
