Complete opposite... you can ECQuest for a few days and have 10k, literally... I went from one hand out (jagged chokdai spine) on my rogue to flipping into 10k between gear and plat... I mean honestly... it's absurd the tools at our hands with auction tracker and wiki and such, forums etc.

On the other hand, blue is vastly broken in terms of grinding/grouping. No one has incentive to group because they are either a) being powerleveled by friends/guildies or b) twinked to hell and don't want you mooching their solo xp

Red on the other hand has incredible incentive to group and level together without need for PL with bonus xp for pairing up and grouping, and the added excitement of not-so-twinked groups getting jumped by a twink or two and duking it out etc.

I'd go red all day, but if you want early glory (which is a bit boring) go blue for easy gear and plat. People will help on red but you won't get gear/plat as quickly IMO
