All of this aside, I really think you overestimate the amount of griefing that occurs here from 1-55. 56+ yeah, it can be rough sometimes, but at 56+ you can also join Apex or Ragnarok and have basically half the server's pvpers on your side.
Did you know... *long list of great Red tricks*

Here's the thing: new players don't know any of that, and more importantly none of that is relevant when you're trying to get your level 2 necromancer to level 3 in the Field of Bone and some douche with a fungi keeps killing you. Red is a bag full of players, and every griefer is a hole in that bag. Blue is a bag without holes, and unsurprisingly it keeps more players.
You can insult new players for not knowing how to PvP fight, but all the PvP knowledge in the world won't help against Mr. Fungi. You can talk about loot and scoot, but new players won't know about it, and even if they did with or without their corpse they still can't take on the fungi. And you can talk about camping and waiting for him to go away, bit no one in their right mind thinks that's fun. All those thing don't matter, because at that point Red has already lost another player.
Now you can insult those players all you want. You can call them weak or stupid, or anything else, but at the end of the day insulting people for leaving won't make them stay. All I'm saying is instead of thinking like veteran Red players and looking for reasons why everyone else is a loser who doesn't deserve to play on Red in the first place, maybe y'all could try having a little empathy for what it must be like to start on Red.
If you want to improve the population that is.
