I've been on red69, and from what I've heard people just don't want the classic XP rate. Even right now people are complaining that there's some sort of XP nerf that's making it feel like p99's rate.
There's no way anyone will return to r99 with a low XP rate. It's not gonna happen. It's not what people want. Kunark might bring a few back (including myself, I want to resurrect my SZ iksar and it's one of the reasons I'm playing there today since it just released Kunark) but let's face the truth here: Slow XP means very low pop, and one guild making up almost all the pop won't entice others to return.
I wish I knew what caused the mass exodus to begin with. I wasn't around when it happened. When I built my new comp back in early December the server was still going strong, but I never bothered to install EQ on it because I was busy with Skyrim, Battlefield 3 and other games I couldn't run on my old comp.
What caused the mass exodus?
