I really think there are 3 separate issues which need to be addressed to really get this server bringing people in again.
Issue #1 - Resists are still out of whack, we know this and it is not a simple fix.
Issue #2 - Clickies, there are far too many easy to acquire clickies which cause far to many issues. Golem wands, conflag wands, mage wands, soul fires, trak teeth and many more I cannot think of right now.
Issue #3 - There are not many leveling groups because there are no safe areas. We need to assign an area as a safe area so people who are rolling in new have some place they can go experience and not get ganked.
I still don't understand why people think Red should or would have a large population. In live only 5% of the players in EQ played red servers. So the fact that red gets 10-18% of blues population on any given night is actually doing better then it should be.
However I still think with the right changes red could add 200 more people playing a night pretty easily.
