During prime time red99 hits 110-140ish
Red99 has always been 10% of blue population (roughly) for many many years.
The truth of the matter is EQ PvP has always been a lower population than most EQ PvE servers.
As far as your #draintheswamp comment, l think you will agree with me when I say that's been done, and it's still a work in progress. Red99 is a lot more hospitable than it was 9 months ago.
With that said ...
Look at all the top shelf critters just waiting to be killed on
RED. These raid targets are just a few examples. Most raid mobs are just there for the taking. ZERO waiting in line.
