As it stands right now, basically this server is in decline and I see no way that it will rebound in its current state. With twinks relentlessly pking new players in lowbie gear, over and over, it makes playing for a lot of new people, pointless.

I'd argue that lowbie PvP has been in decline lately. I remember seeing Global Yellow Text coming out of Unrest and Mistmoore nearly every 20 minutes or so, but lately it seems a lot of the dungeon pvp'ers are on hiatus. I can't remember the last time I saw Yellow Text come out of Unrest. Mistmoore kills are rare too but I still do see a few.

Since the release of Velious so many lowbie gankers are back to playing their Main most of the time because there's a lot of new gear and new fun to be had. The reason Red had so many twinks running around in the past was because Kunark was going into year 4 and bored 60's with top-tier gear would pour platinum into PvP-oriented alt characters.


Red is top heavy just like Blue. It can certainly feel like a wasteland out in the 1-30 zones but we're up here waiting for you if you gain the levels. I'm having so much fun with my crew these days. <3
