Rogean's hit the nail on the head though, most people lose interest fast.

So why choose the people who WILL eventually stop playing/lose interest over the people who have been playing here for a long time?

I wouldn't mind something similar like green. Have a seasonal purple server where the rulesets change each time and then throw all the toons onto red.

Make legacy items no drop when they're transfered onto red though.

because you're catering to 10 people instead of a potentially larger and sustainable population. red has had a lot of challenges throughout its lifespan, continuing on with red in its current state is trying to rebuild a burnt down house built on top of sand.

i get it, you're attached to your pixels, but it's time to move on to something bigger and better.

With that said, as grateful I am to Rogean for P99 I've also seen nothing tangible from him as far as developments for Red99 in a LONG time, and despite him saying more today on the topic to Dulu than he has in YEARS, I'll believe it when I see it.

more like 50 people during peak times. Which is the same amount of unique players on RoZ.


I just don't want my red toons getting merged with blue. I'd even rather have a seasonal server and have red on hold. Then when the season is over, start Red back up with new players dumped into it until the new seasonal server begins again.

I don't want to be rude, but I'd like you to address the question.

Do you want a fresh Teams PVP server, with a sustainable population, or do you want to keep your current pixels on Red?

What if we gave your character that migrated from Red to Blue a unique title?

Heywood the Conqueror - something like that? Showing you leveled on a PVP server.

What can we do to bring you to the table?

So basically I have a few ideas to bring to the table. In my opinion, I would like to present 2 ideas that might have been commonly thought of, alas I have never seen them.

1.) Remove cross team healing.
2.) Bring all current existing pvp characters to blue as RED status. (priest of discord).

I think moved red chars to blue should have a cosmetic red player name without the typical discord drawbacks (i.e. cant be healed by nor buffed by non discord players), idk if thats even doable, but just to show where these chars came from as a badge of honor (or scarlet letter depending on who you ask).

As far as teams I'd go even further and say they need to be hardcoded, i.e. no grouping, healing, buffing, porting, bard songs, trading, etc between team lines. Hell I'd remove common tongue.

Both of these quotes.
