Overcrowded

[Nirgon]

Are you all familiar with leap frogging dragons in temple of veeshan?

Might want to see what that's all about if you're new to blue server raiding ToV.

This seems a bit of an over reaction. Last few days the population has been really crowded in zones up through all level ranges. Most of the time everything is fine if you move past the same 5 zones. Non issue at this time.

This simply isnt true. In over 4 years of playing here and having leveled probably a dozen different characters (four of which are 60), I cannot think of a single time I've logged in with the intent to grind EXP and not been able to find somewhere to do it. You might not get your first, second or even 20th choice for camps, but if your goal is exp there are countless places to do it. I've been PLing some friends recently and routinely find empty zones where we're able to take 3 or 4 camps because everyone in that level range is sitting LFG in MM or arguing in OOC with bards in OT. Even in popular zones like KC I've almost never had a problem finding a couple out of the way mobs to casually solo on my monk.

The server isnt overcrowded because you can't get the frenzy or ancient cyclops camp when you log in for a couple hours each week during prime time, just like a football stadium isn't overcrowded because you don't have seats 25 rows up on the 50 yard line. EQ is a game where people compete for limited resources, if you can't figure out how to do that or simply don't want to I suggest you find a game more in tune with your playstyle.
