before January the red server was hitting 7%-10% of the blue server population.

with the addition of extra staff presence, some monthly pvp and pve events, and a little bit of love, the red server population peaked at 20% of blue population.

when the xp bonus was scaled back last month or so, the population dipped back into the 10%-13% of blue population range.

since that time the pop has been slowing going up again, and as i write this the pop is back at 20% of Blue server.

next time, don't just make things up. you never know who has been actually paying attention, and can call you out on your BS

I was under the impression that xp loss would deter people from bindrushing.

Its not just for the warriors or rogues. It helps any class. Any new person. Not everyone rolled a druid or wants to roll a druid - the easiest class(bards r best) to solo to 1-50 with.

You see absolutely nothing possibly because your so focused on your own perspective. Did you read the post? Do you see our population compared to blue? Really? How about read the other 500 posts about people asking for exp bonus?

Exp loss isn't relevant to an exp bonus. The bonus should be there regardless of exp loss. Its to help the server get more people. Period.

Exp bonus is for everyone who is new to catch up to a server population that is 80% 50+

Exp bonus is an INCENTIVE to entice new players and returning players to grow population.

People don't come to the pvp server to exp grind or "experience the classic feels".

There is another server for that, are you playing on the right one?

That post sirken made is misleading. The population of blue fluctuated significantly from 400 people at peak to 900 at peak.

But still - why is 10% or 20% of blue population a GOOD thing?

I don't think you understand what I was saying. Exp bonus as it is now is bad for rogues and warriors, because they get passed up more quickly by their solo class friends than they would without the bonus.

I'm not the one complaining about how things are run and demanding that the devs make changes to fit my preferred style of play. Maybe you're on the wrong server.

Why would you think that training was legal? This is EQ lol.

Current exp rates are bad for warriors and rogues because if they had no exp bonus then solo classes would want to group with them for some reason?

The thing that exp bonus doesn't do is make people group together, but there is a exp bonus already for that for an incentive.

The exp bonus brings in more people because it allows them to cut back on the thing everyone likes to do the least which is grind exp(go blue), especially on a pvp server.

I am not complaining or demanding. I am making a suggestion I have already made before because I think its relevant to the current state of the server.
