On Red (50s Chanter) I mainly farm items to sell, wearing only crap CHA gear. Very rarely see PvP. In the rare instances I do, I might die / zone, then log or logon to a different toon for a bit. Come back to a clean camp and go unbothered the rest of the evening.
On Blue, (60 Torpor Shammy) I find a camp fully popped and proceed to clear it. 10 minutes later a few knuckleheads come in and start lawyer-questing me about how "they were there but had died to some random train caused by pathing issues and that Rule 4 and 6 states that this is still their camp and I should really go read the rules on the website...". So what do I do? Log and play Red. I don't have the time I once had to play. I sure don't have time to type up dispositions of why a camp is mine and cite the legalities that enforce my stance on that particular issue. For folks like me, Red is the only place where we can get on and get a camp immediately to actually accomplish something / make gains without having to hang out on some list for 3+ hours. I get it if some of you Blue players don't want to start over. More power to you. But if you're limited in the time you have to put into the game, but enjoy logging in for short periods of time and wish you could find a camp immediately when you get the chance to play, give Red a look. Most of the Red players on this thread were Bluebies first. We've actually played both servers (unlike the Blue players who are here bashing Red) and are telling you this from experience and because we know you'd enjoy it better. Peace! | ||

Hey, players who are on the fence about trying red. As a person who actually plays on the red server, none of the things these blue players are writing essays about are actually true. Red server is a fun chill place where most levelers are either new players starting fresh, or peoples' alts with a little bit of twink. It's a pvp server and yeah pvp twinks exist, but it's really not as big of a deal as these peoples' fantasy scenarios are making it sound. I've leveled 9 characters to level 50+ on red now, always un-twinked except for the time where I changed my main class, and the worst I've encountered from a twink was having to log off and watch TV for 10 minutes while I was in mistmoore once. If you get PK'd, all you have to do is walk away from the keyboard for a couple of minutes and not send the person who killed you angry tells, and they'll probably get bored + leave you alone. If you're cool + normal and level headed, red server is not a scary place at all until you're in range to level 60.

and once you're level 56+ the deal is, you pick a faction/join a guild and roll with your broh's. the best part about the red server, is that the pvp rules force you to rely on other people & form meaningful friendships with your comrades. it just isn't the same on blue. of course you still have your friends, but you're not counting on them to survive and progress like you do on red.

We also have a strong community of players willing to help both new players, and blue players who want to make the switch alike. It's hard to give up what you have on blue or another box and start fresh, but at the end of the day you're making progress on a server that's more fun to play on, especially at the endgame. <Thunderdome> is an awesome leveling guild full of groups running at every range. I know there's several players who do a lot to help new, dedicated players in my guild <TMO> and I'm sure all the other guilds on the server also have cool people willing to help out people making the switch. Consider red!
