The problem is that Green is now in a good spot population-wise. Low-level dungeons and popular hunting zones are usually packed to (and often beyond) capacity even during off-peak hours. Doing a merge now will result in an overcrowded server.

Everything in the 30s is permacamped on Teal right now. Lines for groups. The 40s jam is coming.

I heard there were still people able to transfer from green to teal as recently as two days ago. And you can still make new characters on teal. Green is fairly well packed, and teal has a healthy population that can still get bigger.

Why in the hell should they mash these two back together and create the same situation that led to a new server in the first place? Because OP solos all the time and doesn't get invited to PuG bats and bugs? Make a group yourself if you want to group, and go places. Put up LFG, there's a lot of other shamans but you'll eventually get a group here and there.

A couple thoughts, OP. Firstly, if you’re level 40 in 32 days, that’s some pretty fast leveling. You may have left most other players behind. So the problem may fix itself!

Secondly, someone theorized that a higher percentage of solo-questers would /move to Teal for the lower population. That could be affecting your experience.

You really should try reaching out via tells and forming groups. Another response might be to make an alt. Then you can check for groups in two level ranges. You could also gather gear for an alt, even an alt you haven’t made yet, while awaiing more group-oriented players to catch up to you.

I'm not actually having any issues progressing, the server just doesn't feel classic. Is it fun and functional? Sure. It could possibly just be a teal problem.

Oh. Ok, cool.

Does anyone know if people back in 1999 leveled as fast as we, the P99 Neckbeard Association, have?

From a filthy casual back in 1999 playing EQ to a filthy casual playing P99 on and off since 2013, this Green server has been pretty classic to me. I had a paladin during Retail that ended up with the Soulfire and killed Naggy/Vox, but never went much further than that. I don't recall how long leveling took back then, but the hybrid penalty was brutal for sure.

I currently have a lvl 9 Paladin, a lvl 11 Cleric alt and a lvl 7 warrior alt on Green. My Paladin was around lvl 23 on Blue and my cleric was lvl 14. I don't have much time to play and I end up doing some quests or killing some blue mobs here and there. I have grouped in CB and wandered the world a bit. Some nights after I get home from work, I get online just to get on the boat for a corpse run (is there anything more classic than that?).

Have you seen the content available post 40 right now? It is very limited, especially with no planes out yet. In a month when there far more people in the 40-50 range than now you are going to feel way different. Try more than doubling that with a merge. That's a joke. There simply arent enough high level zones in classic "endgame" pre- fear and hate. You should thank the devs for splitting the servers. Soon it is going to not be great for higher level characters.
