So how are we going to steal the majority of Blue99 players?

I wouldn't count VZ in that list, and I dunno what the high end was like on other guilds. VZ Defiant was always top, but there were always 2 or more other major contenders. And lots of more casual raid guilds, where I belonged at the time.

The problem here is going to be population, more than ruleset. IMO [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I can only speak first hand for TZ, Pande which is the top guild was months ahead or more progression wise. I can't remember how long it took for the 2nd guild to enter Sleepers or VT with a raid force but it was a while. If I remember correctly the GM's essentially prevented us from PVPing them while they fought the mobs they needed to progress to Elemental Planes and time.

If there's only Vox, Naggy and Fear then it's even easier to keep them on farm.

Edit: I agree if the pop is up I don't care what the rules are. The server pop will be dictated by how many people enjoy it though and if the rules make it harder or easier to enjoy then it will affect it.
