Population falling?

....and a bustling server population that always comes with a new server on any game.

In what fucking universe is this statement even remotely true?

You seem to think that there are people interested in classic EQ who aren't already playing on p99 and that a new server would convince them to play on p99.

There aren't. There are a lot of people on this forum that think there are tons of people like them who are far enough along the spectrum to keep tabs on p99 but refuse to play on it because reasons. But that is like half a dozen malcontent shut ins who think they number in the hundreds.

I don't think it, I just don't discount it.

I do because there is not even a shred of evidence to back up that wishful thinking.

I am just saying you can't discount all other factors just because they don't suit your argument.

It's impossible to predict or know for certain what would happen if a new server was to start up.

There are people stumbling upon p99 at least once a week or so. Idk if there is enough of an influx to justify a server split.

I know EXACTLY what would happen if a new server started up.


I would have 13 manastones and form an all paladin guild.

I don't even know where manastones came from tbh. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Its impossible to predict if I'm going to get abducted by aliens on my way to work today, or not. But given the evidence I've seen, I can be fairly certain that no, I won't be abducted by aliens on my way to work today.

Servers: same thing. No, I can't predict with 100% accuracy what would happen with a new server, but given that there is no evidence whatsoever of tons of people waiting in the wings to play on a new p99 server outside of the about half a dozen malcontents who hang around these forums for reasons. Its a very safe bet that starting a new server would only serve to split the population.
