I like EQ being unbalanced, its one of the things that makes EQ EQ and not like every other MMO. I do like certain aspects of Luclin and PoP and wouldn't be against another server doing it. But I have a hard time getting past certain negatives like Paludal Caverns or PoK. The bazaar was kind of cool in its own way and it would be cool to experience that again but it doesn't beat EC tunnel. The fact we have a populated EC tunnel in 2016 is one of the greatest things in gaming today imo.

You realize if they put a P99 - Luclin Server up on the list it would be low pop as well. I think a lot of people are envisioning a Luclin server with the current P99 population, which just would not be a reality.

I mean do you really want a Luclin or PoP server with 50-100 people scattered all over, or concentrated at max level? What are new players suppose to do in empty zones when the initial rush of people that want the server are all max level with not much reason to reroll because there is still stuff to do? If you dont have people rerolling and new players coming in, what do you think will happen **cough ** look at red99 **cough**

There will never, never ever, be a >= Luclin server with a population like that of P99 or even close. And I mean anywhere, not just here. I understand there may be 100-200 people that REALLY want it to happen, but most of us are here because it's NOT Luclin/PoP.

Coleslaw, you are making an awful lot of assumptions. If I remember correctly, the population of Everquest in during SoL than during RoK of SoV. So there's no basis that the population would be lower, like in red. There were less pvp players on eqlive, so that makes sense for the server here to be lower pop. I think that based on the fact that the people who post on the forum, we draw a consensus of the entire servers opinion. But the casuals don't post on the forum, and I bet for every 10 players online, MAYBE 1 is posting on the forums.

IMO, a luclin server would be populous and would decimate blues healthy population, which is the biggest reason not to do

I liked SoL.

I can remember the undead getting bugged in the grey, at the zone to Ssra temple. They would all sit there and never path back. Then when a guild wiped inside there would be a pile of corpses from people trying to zone back in! Was rather funny! Then they patched and fixed it. The grey wasn't as fun anymore.

I wonder how much RGC would sell for on here? It was a lot back in the day!

If you just say that the population was greater during SoL and PoP, it makes it sound these drove the population rise and were the most popular. If you actually look at the numbers the subscriptions basically flat-lined starting with SoL. The biggest jump was actually GoD which was then followed by a massive crash which correlates to the WoW release.

So no, i don't think that two expansions that saw a 6% increase in population to be as popular as you try to make them sound.
