Technically it was, via patch notes. Do you have some issue with P99 staff? Seems like you take a shot at us every chance you get.

That could be a difficult proposition around here when 50% or more of the level 45+ toons on green are piloted by ill-mannered, ill-healthed "trolls."

Don't be ridiculous.

Probably 95% (or more) of ALL the players on the servers are fine folks. It's just the loudest, most annoying voices that catch your attention.

And people who exaggerate, probably either because they aren't clever enough to realize the truth or because the truth doesn't suit them, don't make it any better.

Which is to say, communicated to the players. Like, at all.
Staff bashing used to get you a permanent ticket out the door.

I miss those days. It’s the one thing that is never cool to do on these forums.

I most certainly did. Lingering Stockholm syndrome from being accustomed to Blue's overpopulation is still.. realistically undesirable.

Separate green/teal was a ghost town. Now things are a lot better, feels like the world has people in it again.

It's funny, I felt the exact opposite: on Teal I never lacked people to group with when I wanted to, and never failed to have competition for good solo spots when I wanted to solo ... just not too much.

Take the South Karana gnoll spires: even at 8AM on a weekday every spire (and the extra spawn) was usually taken. Heck, Splitpaw itself (or at least the first six mobs, which is virtually all anyone does) was usually taken, and that zone is almost permanently empty on Blue. But if I got lucky or hung around long enough, eventually someone would go turn in scrolls, and I could get a gnoll spawn.

Or take the JBoots list: I stayed in Najena for a few weeks, and almost never saw less than five people on it. But five was a doable number: a normal person could sit there all day and get the item. I could keep going, but ... my point isn't to say you're wrong.

Rather, I'm trying to suggest that servers are big places, and different people have different subjective definitions of what "over-" and "under-" populated means, which depends not just on whether they solo or group, and where, but also their personal preference.

To me, Teal was the best server Project 1999 has ever created. I never once felt it was empty (except perhaps empty of the Seal Team crowd, which of course was a pro and not a con), and I had a blast the entire time I played on it ... which quite honestly I didn't expect.

I'm still mourning it's loss ... but I say all that not to argue with you or anyone else, just to provide a counter point.

Can't speak to Teal very much. Green seemed to be the opposite post-split. Things like the Karana bandits, Highpass, Splitpaw (not all of SK though, spires and KFC were still of course popular), various bandit and orc camps, etc. were empty. Even Befallen it was hard to find a group in. Maybe we just had more ZEM highway min/maxers on Green.
