Red will always suck at this point and the lure of free loot is actually the root of the problem.

Any feeling of accomplishment is fleeting as you have no one to show off your cool pixels to.
Since you don't actually need any of this loot to kill mobs, and there are almost no other players who aren't guilded with you to use them on in PvP, you burn out quickly and quit after experiencing a couple months of uncontested raiding. It's the same pattern in most MMO's nowadays with the difference being they have new content to bring people back every several months. Only someone with severe mental illness will raid the exact same mobs uncontested for years on end.

mostly inaccurate. the death rate for all spawns on the blue server will always outnumber that on red. you dont say the population is lower? but this isnt Empire anymore, the leadership decided they wouldnt tolerate people lacking social skills and the ability to play respecfully in order siphon pixels for themselves. And the bottom line isnt your pixel or luxury car because well know that won't buy you happiness and enjoyment, its the journey and struggles you undertake and overcome. That's better on red and you know it.
