Problems with this server from a new players perspective

new content, aka plane of hate / plane of sky, will just bring more nihilum back, which will only exasperate the end game issue this server has.

Not the worst thing in the world, because it gives me more people to ALLAH AKBAR and provides more raid and semi-raid content for the people actually playing.

But I agree that rolling out these new zones would be akin to putting a bandaid on a broken leg, and make PvP even harder to find. I was looking forward to the next generation of high level players w/ TZT, Brotherhood, etc, but they have largely disappeared for various reasons.

We do need a more accelerated release of content. I think once Kunark comes out there will be a very big spike in population.

3) Exp. As much as you'd like to believe people came to this server and they want to enjoy the quest, the grind, the journey, or whatever you'd like to refer to it as... that is not the case. Everyone should be on this server for one reason and the majority of us are. We want PvP and we want lots of it. Want to "enjoy the game, and the grind"? Go to the blue server. You can PvE your heart out with a bigger player base and more options. WE WANT PVP.

I'm not sure that this solution is something that is actually do able however, another solution I could potentially see is "hot zones". zones all through a certain level group that have a bigger exp bonus. Examples would be crushbone, unrest, oasis, permafrost, lguk. These hot zones would be great not only for the increased experience, but would also promote more low to mid level pvp due to the increase of population in said zones.

I am level 12 troll shadowknight. I have fun. I PvP. I solo. Crushbone and unrest seem healthy to me. So is south karana when I get on my 33 Shaman, it's always 5-15 people grouping, pvping, soloing etc.

I gave you recommendations on where to solo your druid, telling you to go to east karana, kill Crags and Griffawns then transition into South Karana. You asked me if there was PvP there, and I said ya sometimes Crags has competition and its fun. You responded saying you would prefer to avoid all PvP. That is why I am having a hardtime understanding your arguement about wanting PvP and please gimme insta 50, but still talkinga bout enjoying midlvl...

Also, all the zones you mentioned already have exp bonuses. Thanks for playing the game.

A single type of PvP encounter while I'm charm killing is going to result in my dieing. Excuse me for wanting to avoid PvP while using this method to level. I spent last night and all afternoon today in EK and have seen 1 single person in this zone for about 5 minutes with me. Its just as dead as every other zone in been to.

You're entirely missing the point of my "hot zone" suggestion. Thanks for playing the game.

kunark will literally be the nail in the coffin if changes don't occur first

Is your goal to create a server where there is a healthy balance of players spread out along the leveling curve? Because if it is, then starting in on the guild bashing only discredits what you say.

If you can't see beyond the tag that hangs above your head, or mine, or any other player's, then there's no point in having any discussion at all.

this isn't 1999, people aren't here to "enjoy the ride" they want to get to 50 as fast as possible, because that's when the game begins for most people

WRONG!

Yea, I have to dissagree w you HB. I am not a vztz'er and do not wish to play call of duty EQ mod. I liked the challenge of PvPing while leveling, I enjoy PvPing at 50, and most importantly, I enjoy being able to PvP for a camp instead of poopsocking it and waiting in line...

I do think things like global OOC and YT will stimulate the server. I want the box to grow just like you.

Appreciate someone who can disagree without trolling. I gotta disagree with you on this though because as the server stands today, there really is NO PVP outside of 42+, with the exception of the occasional unrest skirmish.

Close, but off by 100%:

Close, but reread what she wrote.
