Server not thriving anymore

um.

before January the red server was hitting 7%-10% of the blue server population.

with the addition of extra staff presence, some monthly pvp and pve events, and a little bit of love, the red server population peaked at 20% of blue population.

when the xp bonus was scaled back last month or so, the population dipped back into the 10%-13% of blue population range.

since that time the pop has been slowing going up again, and as i write this the pop is back at 20% of Blue server.

next time, don't just make things up. you never know who has been actually paying attention, and can call you out on your BS

red pop peaked at like 204 or something, then the next day or two the exp bonus was removed and it immediately dropped back down to like 140

point i'm making is clearly exp bonus affected this, and should be put back in so that we see an influx of new players once again

not really arguing with you here

I'm sure you guys had your reason for removing the xp bonus, but all it does is make those of us who are level capped not want to risk death in any pvp encounter. Yes there should be a penalty for dying, but two deaths in pvp at level 59 shouldn't require 5+ hours of straight xp grinding in a solid group just to get that lost xp back.

I personally have died enough times in the last month (I tend to stick into engagements longer than I should, red to the core) that at this rate I will hit level 60 6 months from now. I love this box and I love pvp, but the xp loss makes me just really not want to even bother pvping unless its absolutely necessary or the odds are stacked in our favor (which lets face it, is a rare occurrence).

So this is why none of you guys ever move more than 10 feet from the zoneline during pvp.

Witness, it was at 206 and climbing daily

Good PvP requires 500-800+ population. Nothing fun about pvping the same three people every week.
