Runlvlzero's tips to increasing server population.

[runlvlzero]

Don't expect everyone to solo.
Don't kill noobs soloing.
If you see someone soloing and they aren't pimped in 5 different clickies and 200mr. Give them a helping hand.
Run pug groups.
Accept non optimal duos, exp locations, and groups.
Defend them from PKs.

PvP with people who don't stand a chance against you. Don't PK them. Buff them up with sow, chloro, and thorns, to kill MrBigs.

No you don't have to PL people.

Or farm gear.

Or even interact with them.

But if you 80% of the population dedicates 90% of their play time to just getting the next YT and fucking over everyone or soloing with their 9th set of twink gear.

You alienate every new player that shows up.

The only reason this box gets a +1 to pop is someone rolls a solo class and sucks it up to 60 without interacting with the community (what the fuck kind of way to play an MMO is this? GO FUCKING PLAY WOW, or PROGRESS QUEST)

Or they get lucky and can partner with other newbs.

This server doesn't have enough new people joining to feed the ranks and keep people leveling/getting gear to even have a chance post 50.

Yeah I'm pissed off. There are a bunch of losers here that deserve a bullet straight between the eyes.
