The nutjob EQ purists always get butthurt over other servers or games. The best part is the devs don't give two fucks if 3 people are playing on the server or 1k+ pop. They've proven that with their stance on donations. Even though blue will always see a high pop due to its exclusiveness. It's certain players who have no idea what life outside of Norrath is like. This is the opposite of woke

I hate these hypotheticals, but I will humor you, because I think there is a system that could be implemented for this. I would actually be ok with a one time naked transfer of a 20-30 level character. Nothing over that. That maintains the hard work others put in leveling from scratch on the server while also encouraging a population boost so they actually have people to play with. The beginning levels are always the most painful, and that being multiplied with pvp enabled by super twinks. You'll at least get a fighting chance.

The problem that cannot be fixed is the toxic population. Not many people want to be subjected to it. The little joke Swish did with the toon named Robin Williams, that's encouraged and child's play for these dudes. People can downplay it all they want but it's the reality of it.

This is pretty typical of Red opinion. The last thing the want is a character that might be able to kill them transferring over. I bit if an entire raid guild transferred over a bunch of current red would quit.

It's about the joy of Griefing -- that is basically the only reason you would play there at this point.

I play on blue so more familiar with how a blue player would want to not put any effort in and just transfer over. Just considerate towards our pals on red who have put in the work already. Glad we had this talk.

TMO dominated blue, transferred over as a guild to red, leveled to 60, got destroyed and quickly quit the server.

Red has 0 competition most of the time because guilds break up after losing the battle at end game. It is a very easy server to join individually or in a small group if you want to join the top guild and raid end game.

It is nearly impossible to join up as a guild or group up enough players to take any meaningful content outside of the number 1 guild.

If the number 1 guild on blue transferred to Red the greedy high play time players would leave for Apex and the guild would dissolve after a month.

Only the Red trolls would be against this, as they feel PvP should be a constant free for all fight. I disagree on this, as I feel PvP is added layer to resolve disputes in an MMORPG environment.
This is an interesting take on it.

I think the "PVP elites" would be happier with a VZ/TZ ruleset though. As it fit the games vibe better.
