See, the issue here is: you think we give a fuck. You're under the assumption that you're doing Red a favor by having a migration from blue. You think our server's dead.
We don't care. We. Don't. Care. We've been playing our "dead box" for a year now without blue douches, and we'll play it for another year. And another. We don't need blue's rejects. Please, by all means, watch our "dead server" rot away from Blue. How's that raid rotation treating you, bud?
This thread is outlandish in the first place. It hasn't even been a week since the server's most active dev made a post declaring, basically, that we ought to be ashamed for our behavior. That our in general shitty attitude detracts from the devs desire to do anything for us. You see, we're already not the devs favorites - why would they lift a finger to help some shitty blue players transfer their toons to our server?
Seems like a funny thing for someone who doesn't play here to have an opinion on - what is, and what is not, an issue for our server.
In closing, dear God: please come play with us. I can't wait to make you cry blue tears in-game. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Agreed with most everything, transfers from blue would be pointless and are unwanted. I leveled a character post 50 here on red. I prefer to keep the servers separate... don't even like cross-server trades on forums. Red has risen from the ashes of 20 online prekunark to ~50-70 online post kunark... improvement is good regardless. We will most likely never see average numbers above 100 (primetime maybe). Just accept it. If you don't like playing on a sub-100 population server, play somewhere else. I don't mind too much.
Sure it would have been nice if it was > 200 playing, but that just doesn't happen when a server has some serious flaws from the start and people actually take pleasure in "winning a box." Apparently winning EQ is griefing others off a server, wasting everyone's time, avoiding good PvP except if you have numbers, exploiting mage swords/guard assist/wands, or, currently, recruiting anyone and everyone so there is one powerhouse guild with ZERO competition. Like Sirken has said, the Red community caused the low population on its own (minus the broken game mechanics).
I am having fun with the dreadfully low population. EQ is still fun soloing, just not AS much fun.
Most importantly your thread (ForeverLost) in the blue forum had completely the wrong message... merge servers into one PvP server?
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] That is just crazy. Red just wasn't tested well, launched well, managed well, and played well. Population is low, it might creep back up, but we just have to keep playing and hope for the best. I know I am!
