Versus what? Everyone but TMO leaving, kinda like it's been recently?

I think this server has a tendancy to take all of their problems, attach them to something they dont like, then say it's that things fault for everything that is wrong with the server. In this case it's TMO, before that it was IB and you would be stupid if you actually believed that.
What Sony did to fix the issue of people quitting do to boredom and competing for the same old content was to create new content, the difference is a staff of about 200 peeps vs. Nilbog and a rotating flock of mid-low level programmers (no offense). If content was released on P99 at the same pace it was on live, you guys would never even know TMO existed because you would be an expansion behind them. the problem here is content saturation where the casuals get to end game content with the hardcores and then get pissed when they cant beat them at it.
The truth is that EQ is an older MMO designed in a way that was awesome, but short sighted. The only way for them to keep the masses at bay and not in a constant state of bitterly fighting over content was to just keep making content. Unfortunately P99 can't move that fast (again reasonable) and we get a massive bottleneck right at the end of an expansions timeline which causes all this hatred towards a system that shy of variance, would pretty much work for everyone.
It will be interesting to see the FINAL bottleneck at the end of Velious when this server dies.
