Relatively new player here, I've made a couple shitty threads. Sorry about that.

I'm wondering what the population of this server has been like the past few months - stagnant, increasing, decreasing? I plan on staying for the foreseeable future, but is it reasonable to expect the server to grow?

increasing actually, about 900+ on a nite...more on weekends...and will get a lot higher once Kunark hits, as many have taken a break until Kunark

It increased earlier, but for the past couple months I think it's plateaued at around 900 on at peak hours. Expect a major spike when Kunark comes out. For now, I think it's more than enough people.

When I first started the server was about 250-300. If there were 350 it was a lot.

Now at 900 I'm blown away.

Remember some of the old forum threads? People were howling at the moon when we broke 300, lol.

But yah...expect 2K plus when Kunark hits, no doubt. Many of us are done with the grind and waiting for it.

I remember when we hit 250 members. it was insane = )

I honestly expect 1500-2k for kunark.

The day the server went live there were maybe 100 people. I remember the good old global ooc debates when the pop was 300-500, seems like so long ago : D

I am curious to know how many actually people are logged in out of those 900+. In other words how many people are dual boxing that we don't know about?

I don't get why everyone thinks half the server is secretly boxing. The whole time I've been playing, I've only seen 2 people I thought might have been boxing, and I could have been wrong about them. Out of 900 people, there's probably less than 10 actually boxing.

If the worldserver stats are right (and I've never had a reason to doubt them) max ever online wasn 982. I think that was in September?

Most nights see mid 800s at peak EST time.

Worldserver Name: Project 1999 - Classic Legit PVE Progression
Server Version: 0.8.0
Server Status: UP
Players Online: 560

i'd imagine closer to 75% dont box, while the other 20% are or do on a normal basis.

Omg it was like wow trade all over again. Although global auction doesn't seem too bad, global ooc was out of hand.
