I think a recruit a friend thing wouldn't be a bad idea, if the GMs did some announcements about something like that it would be useful to get more players on the server.

I'm wondering a little bit if releasing the PvP server right now was the best timing given the already decreased population...
You are a damn genius! Recruit a friend thats awesome

Look at the state of the server the past two months and ask,why did 200 or so people stopped playing. Not opening Vp to allow the upper 100 or so end game raiders to move on, killed the raiding for the next 4 raiding guilds. Divinity , bda, taken and vd have taking hits. I would say between the 4 of us we lost over 100 or so people.

Guilds can only raid hate, fear and sky so many times before being burnt out. If tr and tmo moved on to vp, it would allow those other guilds to do new things and get older members back. Hell give it another month and Tr won't have more than 30 people online, or TMO will only have 50 man raids.

People can only do the same things for so long before being burnt out. Lack of content,epic,server politics is killing the server slowly. Go ask your friends to come back and when they ask,has anythint changed? The answer will be no. So what motivation do they have to clear hate for the 70th time for armor to rot.

I concur, people definitely gonna make their returns with VP and epics

It's too bad people like daltheb and Eashan have negatively impacting the server but we shall recover

Do you really think that VP being open will change the rest of the raid game? TMO will zerg through VP in 4-5 hours with their 80 people, then will have the rest of the week to poopsock trak and do whatever else.

TR and TMO will free up other targets. You think the they won't be camping the 6 dragons in Vp? Thats about 100 people in Vp. You think they will be going for cazic, inny, vs or kunark dragons if dragons are in window in Vp? This opens many new Windows for guilds who don't have 40-90 active raiders who log on for the the batphone .

It's the lack of targets for people to get excited about. What's the point of trying for something if 60 people are camped out at a "Target" thats in the window. How many times do you think TR or TMO want to camp trak?

Raiding guilds move on to VP the other more casual guilds get the targets that are freed up. It'simple. How many alts do people want to level up and regear for the 5th time.

It's fact. People get burnt out doing the same shit over and over. This isn't s dig at tr or tmo. Even they will get burnt out killing trak the 80th time because of VP not being open. Punishing those two guilds and keeping it closed trickles down and hurts the rest of the raiding guilds. In the end, you see server population decline.

You're right. For a minute there, I was thinking they'd just let VP repop and then do a plow once a week or whatever the spawn time is. But I forgot about how retarded they are.

I've tried to get folks to come back. Like it's been mentioned over and over, their questions are "is VP opened, has anything changed?". I can't give them the answer they want. We've now been through 4 reasons of steadily decreasing validity why there is no VP and have been waiting for 3 weeks for nilbog to have time to talk with us about it. 3 weeks which have brought tons of bug fixes and the launching of an entirely new server, so draw whatever conclusions you want from that. With the old republic and tons of other games about to drop for the holidays, the chances of getting them back here diminish by the day. It doesn't just affect the raiders, those raiders everyone loves to hate also fill in lower level groups too. I can recount the history of the excuses that have brought us to 6 months after kunark opened without it's most exciting zone if people want, but it tends to induce rage in folks.

There were 52-58 TMO sitting in VS room last night waiting for him to spawn. Without VP, the population will move to equilibrium with the current number of raid targets. Guilds will continue to fall apart and be absorbed. hey, at least the PVP folks are happy?

By that logic the server is doomed because they only plan to go up to a limited amount of expansions.
