Heartbrand's How To Get 300 Players To Red99 In 60 Days Plan
------------------------------------------------------------

1) Remove Hybrid XP Penalty
2) 150% Global EXP Bonus + 150% Scaling Group XP Bonus
3) Rotating exp hot zones for differing level ranges
4) Repops stagger mobs across the entire week
5) Constant pvp events for different level brackets with unique illusion item prizes / guild v guild capped events with pve mob prizes
6) In game leaderboard
7) FV Loot Rules
8) One time no drop trade to move no drop items off a character and put on another
9) Boxing until server pop hits 250 avg
10) One month re-release of legacy items with huge press campaign

I personally would like more custom things like once a month random city wars with loot, random powerful dragon spawned in a zone such as steamfont, etc., but too much custom and people might balk. But the need for more content is pretty dire.

SHRUG.

good post

it's a shame that likely any relevant staff members will read it and think that you're wrong and that you have no idea what you're talking about despite the fact that you actually play here and they don't

it's not just the exp being nerfed that caused the pop to cut in half(AGAIN), it's also the fact that it's being handled in this manner and people can't trust the staff because of routine, off-the-wall decisions like these that have kept red99 well below 200 concurrent players since 1 month into the server

I'd play, except for #9 maybe.

They either want the box to succeed or they don't. As it stands, they don't.

Ditto on 9. And I think they want the box to succeed...they just misinterpret the majority of the people that play on it. Qu'ils mangent de la brioche and all.

The concurrent population on Red 99 was not high enough to justify "Legend" status, and it would be unfair to show favortism in the server list to Red 99 just because it's Nilbog and Rogean's box.

Could have easily broken 250 on red with the Velious build up, without xp nerf

Rogean nerfs xp, which everyone knows is going to cripple the pop, and then "Well you know how pop on red is, wouldnt be fair blablabla"

Sounds plausible

three of those servers have unlimited boxing on them

lol really huh, lets pick this apart

Grand creation: Boxing allowed? Confirmed
Hidden Forest: Boxing allowed? Confirmed

I mean it sounds fishy on its own, but if those 2 servers allow boxing, it looks even worse

Confirmation they allow boxing? (Edited confirms)

The plot thickens

Project 1999 is the first and only server in existence that doesn't allow boxing.

ez server also unlimited boxing
