How realistic is casual raiding?

I figure I’m just going to play what I want and not worry about how popular it is. I’m using the last months of green to test out different race/class combos to figure out what I really want to play. It’s mostly that I’m looking to change things up and not play what I normally do and try out new things. The way I see it if I’m enjoying myself in the raid scene it won’t matter how long it takes to get items and if I’m not then playing a class for easier loot won’t matter.

Should know that no one knows if green is going to end or when it will. You could be waiting years before a green 2.0 if we even get one.

We will get one. Green (and it's subsequent 2.0, 3.0, etc. revisions) are the entire point of this place's existence.

Now there's certainly a question of "how long will they wait after the last patch?" before they take 1.0 down and put up 2.0 ... but while the dates may be uncertain, Green 2.0 isn't, because the whole purpose of this place is to give people the experience of playing classic EQ.

No one knows for certain if we will get one. I’m sure the original plan was for it but the fact is we don’t know what their actual plans are. All people can do is speculate one way or another. Hell we hadn’t seen R for months until all the drama around Ryan and Sean.

"Server Merge - The staff has had considerable discussion internally regarding the merging of Green into Blue at the end of the timeline. We've heard your concerns. At this time, we haven't made a final decision, but we have also decided that we will leave the door open. A lot can change in 3 years, and we may chose to leave Green running independently as we open additional servers in the future." - Rogean

I am ... skeptical of the idea of Green 1.0 staying up, but that's just me personally. Regardless of whether Green 1.0 stays up or not though, Green 2.0 is coming.

Again, this is a certainty, because the entire point of this project is to let people experience classic EverQuest ... ie. a fresh Green server (not one that's unclassicaly run past it's expiration date, as Blue has).
