It's Velious Launch Day....

[Vheran]

low numbers because there was no announcement to anticipate it. i was on in the morning where velious didn't exist, got off because of real life, got back on 4 hours later and oh now it's open. no announcement, no GM event, etc. not even a Message of the Day lol. I don't have a character high enough on green to even enjoy Velious, but the low turn out has nothing to do with the server dying and all to do with no publicity.

Yeah, this is part of it. Blue was so big because it was on kunark for like 5-6 years with no p99 option to experience velious prior to that.

Now, the population was already split between 2 servers to begin with in addition to a sizable portion of the green pop coming over from having played velious for 4 years. The situation surrounding both of these launces is very different.

Anyone saying this number means green is dead is just not very smart. Also, lol @ blue playing saying green is dead when green still has more players in game at pretty much any given time.
