Were you weren't actually trying?

I have a LFG hot key (/ooc 23 Ranger LFG). I would send that ooc once every 5-10 minutes. Now I should clarify that I was not sitting in unrest for 7 hours straight. I would sit there for 30-45 minutes doing my lfg hotkey and then someone in guild needed a port or rez from my lvl 60's. But I would always go back and try again after that was done.

It was just a bad night in unrest. 400 people does not mean 400 people actively grouping. Some were just soloing or holding down cash camps. A few were in EC tunnel although I am shocked how long you can be in EC now before even seeing an auction. I tried again tonight to get an unrest group but no one answered my /ooc and I got trained again, LOL.

It is what it is.

I must be drunk, but it doesn't change the fact I quickly found a group to grind exp for several hours with.

I don't really understand this complaint. I've been able to camp single spawn without issue in Nektulos and we had 230 at peak. I see a ton of reddit-type people running around like the spawns are magically materializing but given your 60s, you should know how the game works; find a spawn point and camp it. The spawns aren't even slow. If you aren't a soloer, over every rise lies another full group with unlooted kills littering their campsite. I see folks advertising for more non-stop.

Are you even trying to play?

I am trying but I admit I have never seen anything like this. 300+ people in a newbie zone is uncharted waters for me. So while I am used to playing, I am not used to not finding mobs to kill. I joined original EQ in OCT 2000 so by then Kunark was out with velious about to launch, server economy was established and all newbie zones had plenty of mobs for people to kill. Finding a group was not always easy but finding a mob to solo was never a problem.

I didn't discover P99 until November 2018. So obviously by then I had the same situation. Established economy and no shortage of newbie yard trash.

I'll try playing during non-peak hours on green. Probably have better luck. Fortunately I am used to working nights so I am wide awake at 3am, Im used to sleeping from 7 am till 2 pm. I'll do some early morning grinds maybe.

It's a good game.

Thanks for reminding us that you can’t please everyone. Crazy that thousands of people can find something to do, but you can’t, am I right?

This thread feels more like a blog about the OPs sleeping schedule.

Good availability of no pop server on red for this attitude. I think fungi permanent camped (who needs all these fungis??) and lodizel.

You could log off and do something else instead of crying about your 4-polygon legolas
