Going to be a super serious post/poll.

By casual I mean being totally fine to just log in mess around and do no super serious pixel questing.

Or like. Check a camp once per day.

Or find a pal to help out and just chill. Like I show up in CB and help some random ranger guy with a DS and free bandaging.

It's gunna be red right now because camps are open.

Blue otherwise, because people can't kill you.

'Casual friendly' and P99 go together like milk and dog shit

Don't forget red has a pretty solid XP bonus.

Blue as it gives 10 years to hit 60 without having to try to ‘keep up’ with expansions. Lots of mudflation makes it easy to achieve a basic standard of gear. No random ganking.

It depends on what you are trying to do:

Red would probably suck for a true casual without a ton of game knowledge. No ports, rezzes, economy, groups, etc.

Blue is super top heavy. Which could be a gift and a curse. Decent gear will be cheap, lots of ways for lowbies to make plat off the rich & lazy.

Green would be the most fun for a casual. Lots of people at all level ranges. Decent economy & services. Your char will prolley be a huge gimp -- but so is everyone else aside from a few neckbeards.

Good points. Almost checked out blue again for this reason.

Green just seems like doing anything is going to be group involved this is a double edged sword as groups and EQ community interaction trends towards actual IRL relationship level involved. I don't think it's really right or proper to solo when there's a group with a common interest involved, even when I can do it solo. I Almost always accept the group.

So I leaned more towards red because I usually don't like committing hrs towards group activities on the very regular basis.

I play super casually on green. So much so that I will probably never see the endgame, but I have had a pretty easy time finding groups on all of my characters, besides my wizard, and people have been very friendly when I ask for tips. I have nothing to prove though, I just want my character to look cool, and I want to group and dungeon crawl.
Green is easy to play casually on, but probably hard to get into if you are hardcore, or competitive.

ever since new job i have been relegated to super casual krew on p99. the server is what you make of it. I personally have always played p99 for the experience of the people. the game itself is old and stale. but the people are always exciting and fun to interact with. I log in occasionally just to go sit with some friends and chat.

it's your state of mind that makes this game fun.

Teal. No bottlenecks. No camp disputes. No toxicity.

Easily red. Global lfg chat and you get like 300% bonus xp while in a full group. Casual players will never get to 55+ either, which is where 99% of the pvp happens. So it's between a server with 300% bonus xp and tons of open camps, and servers without either of those things.

Some pretty good thoughts on how red is pretty casual from StrongnPretty in this thread.

I'm very casual and I hit 60 last month so you're wrong.

It's gotta be red for sure.. Any camp, any quest. They are all open for your enjoyment.
