Teal has over taken Blue

[silo32]

Facts

Unless it's for a few hours while sick fuks try to raid.

Sorry u lost. Can we shut down Blue already?

[YendorLootmonkey]

Sorry, redbro... blue server average player count needs to get down to red server average player count levels before being considered dead.

[silo32]

currently on green... hhk/solb/mistmoore/lowerguk/rathemnts/oasis specs/ferrot specs/oggok guards/sola gnomes/ all 40+ spots and groups. I have msged every single one and am on the list... they all have a 2-3 hour wait list... currently...

why would anyone want to merge green and teal unless they are trolling and want other players to suffer

oh btw, currently teal has a higher pop than blue...

[silo32]

Please merge teal back into green...I can never find a group now

who are all these sub 50 post accounts.. I think they are all the same person that doesn't even play and want everyone to cry for another server

also manastone ruby bp and guise all have a list of 6+ on green... so your looking at days if not 30+ hours if your lucky to even get close to #1 spot...

just like last night I ll prob sit lfg till 3am est then log off with nothing accomplished... imagine if we merged teal right now... youd see people crying for a split... again

Yendorbro, I think this thread is actually a rebuttal to a "teal is dead, merge it thread." Not actually a 'Blue killer thread.' Only true wackos make those assertions.

@Silo, effort applauded. I support this message.

Something doesn't smell right with this. You couldn't find a group for 4 hours across all of those zones? Either they're too empty to have multiple groups going or no one likes you. There is no way they were all at capacity.

[silo32]

Still lfg on green.. still on lists.. for all these zones... suggest another place to find a party 40+

not a solo spot a group atmosphere where I can grind with 6 people...

in another hour or 2 im gonna log for the night like last night and many nights before this...

all the current groups ive checked back with are all still full with the same people. this is absurd tbh, imagine a server merge, I would prob quit for awhile. Ignoring legacy items this is a serious concern.

im basically watching stuff on my smart tv, texting people, reading, while checking every zone and finding out whos running what group and asking to be listed and constantly checking back in either with my main or by simple messages.

40+ is pretty camped out period

ive been lfg 4 hours now, go check yourself

gonna have to go with a solid no on the "no one likes me" considering I have grouped with many of these people and they all are trying to get me in to the party but a full party is a full party and if people are ahead of you what can you do? nothing

im not looking for a duo, or a trio, im looking for a solid full party experience, sorry I like to socialize not solo. Ive played many chars on blue and red to 60, many raids, many epics, fungi's legacy items you name it.

There is deff no reason to merge the server.

[silo32]

think im gonna call it for the night... even guildies can't get me into a slot due to 2-3 people ahead of me on a list.

idk I got plans this weekend with the gf so I ll be offline fri-sun I ll try again to get some xp Monday afternoon/night

I don't think much will change
good luck with your teal and green server merge goals

straight joke and trolls trying to ruin this game

god speed

[Videri]

Are you able to play during less-populated times of day? Maybe some “unemployment hours,” as Colgate used to call it. My RL is such that I can play daytimes on certain days.

Anyway, I think you’re right about not merging yet. And don’t worry, trust the staff. They won’t merge Green and Teal just because some goofus made a poll. They’ll merge them at the right time.

Back to afking all day in blue ec tunnel with all of ye

Pls write better posts. Yours are getting boring

I've been playing mostly on Blue recently. Green leveling is essentially the same experience as on Blue now (i.e. everyone just goes to the usual zones and no one plays anywhere else). Why would I want to do the same thing I've had to do on Blue over and over on a brand new server? Personally, the draw of the new servers for me was getting to see people in old world zones that no one ever touches on Blue...alas that mostly went away with the split.

Turns out most people never went to those zones because they suck balls.

Leveling up is still way more fun though, the lack of 100k melee twinks literally everywhere makes the game far more interesting.

I haven't really noticed the lack of twinks making a difference. Sure if you're duoing, or maybe trioing, it might sometimes make things a bit interesting, but any more people than that and gear barely matters.

I've seen a little bit of increased Cleric downtime from it (and that's also in part just due to lack of Clarity until 29, and then after that downtime decreases drastically), but nothing beyond that. Most groups I've been in will consistently pull yellows and reds when they are spawned and take them down with ease. Classic mobs are so easy that you can take them down easily with barely any gear on anyone in the group (we'll see what happens in Kunark when mobs hit harder and have higher HP pools though, but we're not there yet). In fact, the only group wipe I've had was one time in Unrest due to the crazy wide aggro range of yard mobs; beyond that, it's been incredibly easy and smooth sailing and have barely noticed a difference versus twinked groups in Blue.

Don’t know what to tell you then. I think the difference is rather obvious.

Have you grouped up with many Fungi/Epic Rogues on Blue?

I mean sure, there's differences in DPS and things, but I haven't noticed a material difference in ability to handle yellows and reds, downtime, etc. Pretty much every group I've been in is constantly chain pulling (including yellows and reds) without any twinks at all without issue just like the groups do on Blue.

300-700 PLAYER SERVERS ARE NOT CLASSIC

Yes, groups can still take on yellows. Imagine that.

300-700 PLAYER SERVERS ARE NOT CLASSIC

Neither are list camps and players petitioning for more rules all the time. It's not 1999 anymore.

That's a Mic drop statement there. Its not 1999, we all know what's there, virtually no one is exploring the land or taking in lore. We're more tactical about our play time, each according to their priorities. I'm takin a break till sol ro or Kumar cause I have done all I wanted to do in this era. Get a lot of hate in this thread because I expected this to happen. The real question is will people come back? I hope they will, I think they will but we will see.

So what? Lists are an excuse to keep or make even more things nonclassic? The fact is simple, no matter how much you may wish to deny it. 300-700 concurrent player counts on a server are not classic. If you merge the servers you would get a more classic player count. This is a simple fact.

Assuming the players don't react to it continue to login and continue to play you're right. I guarantee you that wouldn't happen though. For a little while you'd probably wind up with a slightly Higher Play count but more people would go away quicker. What you got left right now or people building alt people who enjoy soloing and people who are grouping with their Guild or their friends. Merging the servers isn't going to change that it's going to push people out of the game faster nothing is going to get people to go into guk looking for group in the numbers there were back in 1999 or 2000.

This entire misguided idea assumes there are 300 people stuck on each server who just wish they would be merged so they could find a group easier. I can assure you that's not the case. You're like those business Executives who raised the price of the product and then are surprised when people stop buying it and the profit margin collapses or when politicians raise taxes but their revenue collapses because they raise them too high.

Merge the servers you'll probably cause 300 people to quit, get a very short term bumping population leading to a longer slump. If you really want to fix it stop following the original EverQuest timeline because there's nothing to do in the game Beyond a certain point.

[Wallicker]

Fear will be here soon that should draw 100ish people back per server

[Rhambuk]

Back in my day I remember seeing every guard in nfp being an individual camp for high level casters. All cities were loaded with people. Noobs people tradeskilling people always killing guards. No zone was less than 10 people, and this was a lightly populated pvp server.
This server could easily triple the pop. It's supposed to be slow. Everyone just wants to grind in the same spots and be able to kill nonstop...thats not how the game was made.
You know theyve been working on everquest about 20 years if you want to be able to do that, this is a classic server and people are mad because they can't play it like its a modern server.

what has teal overtaken? :X

[plasma1010]

Sorry u lost. Can we shut down Blue already?

[silo32]

Avg wait time to get a into a party last week was 3-5 hrs per night primetime. I go out this weekend come back to find the server merger. Might just take a few months off or wait till fear see if anything changes. Only made it to lvl 46 but sheesh I don't think this is gonna be any fun. Can't imagine how over populated 40+ will be
