The great Velious information blitz

[Tradesonred]

So as some of you may know, part of the success i think of the new Dark age of Camelot server was in part due to me starting threads here and on the rerolled forums. Threads that have 12k views here and 25k at rerolled. Im not throwing myself flowers. Anybody could have started those threads. It just means there is still great interest about old school MMO boxes because the current MMO scene is so stale.

If the devs do not listen to ill-advised suggestions from GMs who probably never actually tried to play on the server, like nerfing xp as population is picking up, i think the server could really flourish when velious hits.

With a group effort, i really think we could bring red's pop to 500-800 and then we could see some really interesting PVP, niche guilds and alliances that isnt possible on a low pop box.

I wish this would be a new server but kind of made my peace that a new P99 red server after a wipe isnt happening. So what i propose is posting on various gaming forums that Velious is going to go live on Red99 in the months to come and that now would be a great time to get a headstart.

Then a week before Velious launches, bump your threads, make genuine comments about how excited you are about it, and hopefully we get a nice surprise like we had when we first saw the numbers that DAOC:Origins got.

Again its harder to get people excited over a server thats almost 3 years old, but if we can break the 500 people at peak hours barrier i think it the blitz will have been a success.
