Yeah they sure get it alright. This is like their 9th attempt at a box meanwhile Rogean's going to have two thousand people on his PVE server once velious launches.

Too be fair Rogean is the head of the EQEMU project with a pretty decent sized team. The team at eqpvp is two people. Considering they've started with just the bare minimum base code and made TONS of contributions/fixes to the public code, it would be a real douchebag move to diss them-- especially when the p99 team's code is strictly private. Plus they've made four servers in total- Guild Wars, Kings & Bandits, Legacy of Zek, and now Rolfron Zek-- All of which have been incredibly fun.
The thing you're also missing is that you're comparing Red 99 vs ____ server. Rolfron Zek is definitely catered to more casual players while Red99 is for those that are willing to put in several months of playing every day to reach level 60. The funny thing is I bet if most of you were dropped down to 50, with the current nerfed xp rate, you wouldn't make it back up to 60. Especially considering most of the 60 population exploited the shiz out of low HP kiting before it got nerfed.
Maybe population is slightly raising now, and hey maybe it will even hit 300+ during Velious, but screw this bs about "longitivity" of the server when 80% of the server is already lvl 60 with the increased rate. What incentive is there for players to level 1-60 with the current mind throbbing xp rate? Oh yes, there are more low lvl groups now... Right..
