Oh come now, the population on Red isn't nearly as awful as some peeps are suggesting. If you gave it a try you would know that though ^^ Sure, you can't sprint around CB or make your way to CE or around CoM camps un-invis without aggro'ing mobs, but I don't see that as a bad thing ^^
Someone suggested that the primary draw for Red should be pvp and as a pvp server, I agree. However, the Red-specific restrictions along with the pvp make for an infinitely more classic environment and many other reasons to roll Red ^^
Sadly, it is not for everyone though =/ If you tend to get upset about confrontation or regularly identify as a victim, then Red is not for you. If you are looking for something more classic and approach pvp with an open mind, willingness to learn and most importantly and understanding that you are on a Pvp server with players who are there for that feature and that those players are real people too, then you are sure to make Red your new home ^^
The only reason I promote Red is because I've had more fun in the past 3 months on Red than in the past 5 years on Blue (even though I had a lot of fun on Blue). And, I never would have thought that would be the case. I came to P1999 for Classic EQ and I found it on Red.
Give it a go!
