I wasn't trying to insinuate the Green 1.0 launch was bad. I played it for the first few days during the experience boost period, and I enjoyed it. I was trying to say that the Green 1.0 launch had more excitement around it because nobody knew what to expect, this was P99's first attempt at a new progression server. Now people DO know what to expect, so I feel like there will be less enthusiasm around Green 2.0 unless the Dev's change how the server launches in some cool new way.

The creation of Green 1.0 split the player base, which enabled more players to try raiding who thought that they couldn't before on both servers. This means both Blue and Green have more players with characters that have awesome raid gear.

I think one of the major reasons why so many people went over to Green 1.0 was for a shot at legacy items. I am sure there were a lot of Blue players who had been playing for years, and felt bad for missing the legacy items boat.

The combination of more players with awesome raid gear and more players with legacy items means less people are willing to start over in my estimation, which will be a problem for Green 2.0 unless we get a lot of new players.
