Honestly, I'm having a hard time committing to one over other. On blue, if I'm not feeling a zone or can't find a group, I move. Don't really have that option on red (last 3 days when I've gone into Crushbone there have been literally, maybe 2 other people in the zone, one of which is a higher camping the Emp).

On red, though, even if i'm in an empty or near empty zone (which contrary to how jcr makes it sound, DOES happen in blue too), I still have the global ooc to keep me invested/entertained. Plus dat XP bonus.
I never said there weren't empty zones on Blue. Some zones just never get used and even semi popular zones will be on the empty side at off-peak hours. But there's a big difference between a server where Kerra Isle and Tox forest are empty vs a server where ONLY Crushbone Mistmoore Unrest ever have more than 3-4 ppl in them. We've all "tried Red" we all know what I'm talking about.
