You are correct that you don't own any one any kind of explanation over why you make any choice in regards to server health. We just ask because we are genuinely concerned with the server growth and playability. Many players here including myself click on the adds here and/or even donate cold hard cash because we enjoy the server that much.

We're making classic Everquest, not trying to content race competition? I think you have the wrong idea of this project.

I think you misunderstand. People will leave when other games release their content lowering server population. If your decision to remove global was based on server population.. even partially, then the move to remove it may have been to soon.

On the flip side of the coin... the staff here seems pretty adept at making changes in regards to server health, so I have confidence that you will do what you need to make the server the best it can be. The recent GM events and PVP stuff is a case in point that you guys want to make it fun for everyone and we really appreciate that.
