i would play on red if it had attention to its development. and other players cared for more players to play with.

I hear what you are saying, but I would submit that since red follows a timeline that had the development work done already for blue, that really isn't as big an issue as it is for blue. True, there are pvp specific issues (resists appear to be the big one) but that's to be expected on a server like this, no?
If you ignore what goes on in /ooc and on the forums, I think you will be shocked at how very very cool most people on red really are. I've been screwing around with newbie toons on red contemplating starting there and have had half a dozen interactions with other players.....
One, someone tried to root and train me at the entrance to crushbone repeatedly. We zone danced and they eventually killed me. I came back got my corpse and medded up. They came back and attacked me again....another zone dance....This time I got them to 1% before they managed to zone and plug. Put me off my levelling for a bit but definately got the adrenaline going. And put a big grin on my face. Welcome to PvP.
Every other has involved higher levels helping me out with a bind I needed, giving advice, and even encouraging me to level up and join their guild. This, I would like to believe is the silent majority of that server that you never hear about on the boards. Nobody is going to hand you anything, nor should they. What, I think, people want to see is some initiative and thick skin and they will respect you as a player there.
You just need an open mind, a thick skin, a sense of humor and a love of EQ to have fun in pvp, imo. It's more about how you approach it than the other players, I think.
