Precisely. It's a vastly different experience than playing now on Blue, which is what I care about.

Even if the naysayers (no offense but that's what you guys are right now) are right in that the same people will camp things like Manastones etc, I don't care. The economy will be fresh, prices wont be vastly inflated and it will be a MUCH different experience.

That's what I and many others are looking forward to from Green 99.



No. Make me.

Do you think prices on blue are too high?

??????

Bro wait til the new server, you won't be paying 500p for a Ghoulbane, you'll be paying 8k. That's what I sold them for on red. Good luck getting that 8k when there are 800 people all wanting to camp sea furies and halfling guards.

That's the thing man, *any* item worth camping will be perma-camped by people with nothing better to do. When red first came out I was home for the summer after working overseas with nothing to do in a boring town. Camping 6 ghoulbanes back to back and handing it off to your friend is pretty easy to do from the living room couch during a summer off.

(Normal people with consistent responsibilities can't do this)

Actually, if Green were another Blue server, then the prices for items in the early going would be reasonable. There will be some merchants trying to peg prices high, but when a server is young, sales are fast- folks want to get back to playing.

On blue, the first item I purchased from another player was a Ghoulbane, for 600p. That was August of 2010. Kunark was a looooong way off. Granted, at that time, 600p was closer to the 8k you joke about than it seems now.

Red's economy is VERY weird. I'd not use it to predict patterns on another blue ruleset server. It's just not the same.
