Be under no illusions, you will not be escaping PvP by going to Blue. You will simply be trading one form of PvP for another. Instead of PvP through direct combat, you will experience PvP through rule lawyering, petitioning, training, camp stealing, FTE sniping, epic MQ farming, and the collective monopolization of every decent cash camp 24/7 by one unemployed neckbeard or another. In anything worth doing on Blue, your primary obstacle will not be overcoming the game world and its monsters, but beating out the other players who are trying to do the same thing.

This simple fact is the reason that Red's population has been growing steadily, despite its very obvious shortcomings: it's not perfect, but at this point it's preferable to the alternative.

Having characters on both, it pretty much is this. You trade one set of annoyances for another once around 50+. It just depends what you have more tolerance for.

You obviously don't check the server numbers on the front page, or you have a weird definition of "growing steadily"

It had a growth spurt, that was awhile ago. Been pretty steady since that time

I gave red a serious try, probably a couple months and actually saw little true pvp...I did run into quite a few folks with a hard on for beating on the little guy....and it was pretty sad. I'm not talking a twink running around CB rolling newbs, I'm talking low level with a fungi hunting folks on corpse runs with high level druid backing kind of sad....If you need back up heals and buffs while you are PKing at level 5 in a fungi against naked and ungeared characters, you have issues...and that's a lot of the attitude i got from red...meh, ill stick to rule lawyering and actually seeing other characters that don't get off on ruining someones day with a one sided onslaught because they can't hack it at higher levels.

Should have given CoM a try - PvP on the hour, every hour.

This is a product of no item loot and/or a level cap on pvp. Remove the level cap for pvp, and at least you can go after the druid. Add item loot and nobody will want to risk a fungi for some lvl 20 pvp action.

PS - SZ is the best pvp ruleset. It is the most honest pvp ruleset there can be.

So instead of buffed twinks camping noobs in CB it'll just be 60s? Cuts out the middleman I guess haha. Also: eww gross trains.

The E-Thug attitudes of some of these kids is just sad, it gets old after a time.

Red ===> Blue

E-Thugs ===> Armchair rule lawyers

Was the druid in holocaust? most likely. If you wanna give red another shot at some point lemme know, I'll show you how an underdog gets by on red.
