Blue and Green both feel a little underpopped to me personally. Soooo much of the world feels empty at like ~800 peak player counts. The popular zones will always have people but good luck getting groups outside the handful of zones everyone congregates in. I could be wrong but I felt like the world was far less empty and many more zones got used when blue was rocking like 1200+ player peaks.

This is an issue with the game's design inherently. It's meant to support a larger population, but that population is expected to be spread across the levels more. As it is, not only is it heavily weighted towards the top after about 6 months from launch, once Kunark comes out twinking becomes the norm and even when people make alts they twink em so much they can usually blow through the early levels in a week or two.
Other MMOs have made attempts to fix that stuff (like level requirements on items, platinum sinks to get currency out of the world, sidekick/mentoring), but without remaking EQ you can't really do it here.
