If you haven't yet figured out that the distinction of whether something is "classic" or not here means nothing, and you shouldn't expect it to, I dunno what to tell you.

The admins responding emergently to emergent behavior among the playerbase *IS* classic everquest.

I tried the Human Benchmark thing and got a low of 133 and a high of 233 I was usually around the 170s. Read the information about it. If you have an average monitor it can add 50ms...I have a great monitor. I imagine most the people using that site has average monitors. The median is probably way lower in reality. You are playing a game. Most gamers get monitors that enhance their experience. It is probably why you see them having this supposed gain over that random test of gamers and non-gamers.

Some need to understand that anything that lessens interaction in an MMO is a terrible thing and there are butterfly effects from more interaction, mostly positive. Instancing, in general, helped to take the genre into the wrong direction and ultimately limits it by placing a ceiling on any of these unforeseen consequences of interaction. You're artificially preventing the fun and possibility of unknown interactions from occurring.

Here's an idea to repopulate Red btw: allow all players on Green and Blue to duplicate one character per account over to Red, an instant character copy minus banks and plat.

Instant server population acquired. Even time limit it for a "testing" phase if you want, maybe a month or whatever. Make an event out of it? /shrug

I'd do this at the drop of a hat. Hell, make a PvP Purple server that's to test this theory. If nothing else it'd be amazing fun for a few weeks.

Good insight in above post.

I was doing a corpse recovery yesterday after unfortunately passing through the digestive tracts of an elder snow griffon.

I got the corpse to a zoneline, and along ran a monk, chased by a couple of giants.

If I wasn’t there he’d have just zoned them. Instead i shot him an invite, we beat down one, zoned the other and had a chat. I made a new acquaintance from a situation which might never have occurred if EW opened instances for ring stuff.

Wot? No one has ever suggested regular random zones get instances. For quests or xp or anything else. We're specifically talking about raid instances. You would've still has your interaction if there were raid instances on p99.
