This. If you want to help the population you have to make the new player experience fun. Leveling up can be super fun. Doing events for ppl who are never going to quit this server (those who are already 50+) will not change this server pop.

I agree 100%, the other night when I started the event you know how many low levels offered to come, ONE!

We can't do something with only one person. As for your statement I am all for that as well. I am just hoping maybe some of those blue players get tired of staring at walls, then hear about red99 having GM events and things of that nature. They might come over from blue, and start fresh. As for brand new players I think they will see a difference in GM presence vs blue. So that might help them choose red over blue. But the most important thing is all the garbage you guys put in OOC. A brand new player see's some of that and gets the heck out of dodge. Put yourself in their shoes, they brand new to a server and log on and see all that. Tell your guilds to clean up their act some. Its ok to have fun, but some of that stuff you guys say, there is no need for it.

Thanks for taking the time Cylock.

How about keep it simple: 6v6 battles around Mistmoore Lake. Spectators watch from the gargoyle towers, competitors must stay within the circular lake area (ramp and cavern off limits).

The twist: you pick the 6-man teams. Simple make a list of healers, separate them evenly into the number of groups desired, then alphabetically shuffle the rest.

What I did on the 2v2 event was random 100 for the teams. So we didn't have a problem with stacked teams. Each team had to come up with a strategy based on what they got on the random.

With that said I like your Mistmoore idea! And I agree, keep it simple! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

dagnor's cauldron was the last place derubael hosted a really, really stupid event at and he had a meltdown halfway through it

never came back to red after that

Maybe we could address what the issue was that made him freak out. So we can fine tune the event.

Like I said I am open to getting with red99 leaders and ironing some things out. I don't know everything, I need you guys to help out as well.

Your Humble Servant,
