When I played on live, I played on test live, and the pop was never over like 200 except once or twicer ever. And the server was endlesssly top heavy, ppl would log in charboost to 25 too which made it immensly easy to solo stuff.
What happened when live went F2P destroyed that community tho as the test server became free before then and then, test/copy, and the server didn't have a stable community after that when it got wiped.
Would love an real RP server tho that would roll characters into the other servers, but allow ppl to also pvp and not have features like /list let the community sort this out, let people consider jboots seriously. I don't know how the jboots farmers and manastone farmers can consistently sustain themselves.
If it takes around 16hrs to get a legacy item and the population is 2000 thats 2000x16 deevided by 24 = 1,333.333333333333 days for 2000 people to each /list once and get an item once.
Some people are going to have to realize these items may just be unattainable. Just like they were on live. Same goes for big dkp loot, that's part of EQ, is working in a guild. Otherwise, be satisfied with bazaar gear (which is prefectly viable for RP, leveling, nostalgia, and fun).
IDK how ppl do things the way they do, I'm not them, not trying to sell my way of doing it, just giving my strange perspective on what I see, and the ways in which I have always adapted, even since live to things that I don't feel like spending 300 hrs on.
