I mean to me man the most fun thing about green is leveling up one dude after another to 50, and also being able to do it in what would be considered garbage gear on blue. But a lot of people on blue already have every alt they ever wanted to make at 60 or far into the process, so that's not really appealing to everyone. But eventually you are max level and if you have investment and ties to blue already its a no brainer to play end game there instead.

As for "still talking about Detoxx" etc, drama has always been a major contributor to people's ties to end game EQ so you're answering your own questions with the stuff you're attempting to mock. Good guys, bad guys, in groups, out groups, manipulation, deceit, alliances, betrayals....these are all classic AF parts of non-instanced raiding. On green that all lasts for about 24 hours tops then its planar trash farms. On blue there's competitive raiding all week long. People like that shit, a lot of people, and they always have since the beginning.

As far as Kunark....I'm expecting the toxicity and lack of chill to reach unprecedented levels on green. Which might be pretty interesting if you have the right perspective on your pixel sickness, but there's a lot of people who will be more turned off than will be getting the raid scene improvement they are hoping for IMO.
