Would you donate for a new blue server?

People seem to be of the wrong opinion that every discussion pertaining to blue should be about how awesome red is.

It's not. We're not talking about Red. Red is not the solution to any of these problems. Please stop.

Actually in this case it's making people realise that blue didn't always have a nightly 1200 pop, and that there were times when you'd level on blue and zone into an empty Mistmoore.

This doesn't make any sense. People that want this new server want to leave the existing one. If they wanted a class c environment they'd just stay here. They're certainly not going to want to level a second character on a second server and raid hardcore on one and casually on the other.

I'm going to vote yes, because I would pay to start on a fresh server. Raid rotation means little to me, though I'd support it if given a vote. Movelog would void any benefit to me and I wouldn't consider the change if it were enabled. What I would pay for, and pay well, is a fresh start server with MQ disabled. I don't really know why any of us are wasting our breath though.

There would be nothing stopping anyone from playing on both servers. I would personally reroll a new toon on a server and race on one server, rotate on another. I'm sure lots of R folks would make C server toons, and lots of C folks would make R server toons and after 3-6 months you'll still be short mobs because there would be more guilds on both servers. Overall it could be better. You'll always have something to do on at least 1 server.

I can see there being some (few) R folks who want to become C folks... but they're already on a C server. So it's moot.

However, I cannot see there being even a single C folk who wants to be an R folk. And if there was one, they simply don't have to switch servers, just stop being competitive. So again... it's moot.

Being C or R is a personal choice that can be made without new server(s).

What the whole "new server" idea sounds like is simply a desire to not associate with certain players.

How bout just a server with a classic timeline?

Movelog should only allow 1 character to move.

It's not about the pixels. It's about people wanting to be rid of playing amongst the caustic players. Most of us are well into our adult lives at this point.

The problem is a new blue server would not achieve the desired result of excluding players with no integrity or moral characteristics of any kind. Hell if I thought for one moment that it could I'd pay for the latest and greatest server hardware money can buy completely out of my own pocket. The problem we have here is a cultural one and no amount of money or new servers will ever solve it.

+1 However, I still want to enact change. Change doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be better than the status quo.

what I'm saying is the majority of people want a rotation. The minority forces the competition. Not about total pop. So if you take 50% of blue that's still way more than red

I think the population would actually increase overall. There's dozens of people in BDA that just faded away because they hit that glass raid ceiling. They weren't willing to ditch the guild and they weren't willing to play like TMO/IB so they just quit entirely. There's plenty of casual guilds with members exactly like that who want to experience raid content.

Hell, the hardcore server could just have a very spartan ruleset and plenty of old TMO/IB might show up for the fight. Allow training or just xp=loot, whatever.

If there's a server with a classic timeline then there should be no movelog option, at all, as it would bring things over that are outside of the timeline.
