Sorry, only those who have actually played on red have any factual basis to pass judgement on the server. If I based my opinion of blue on the forums I would think its just a bunch of people sitting around waiting for a mob to pop and hope they are the first to touch it.

So check out red, or not, who cares, just don't assume you know anything about the server unless you have felt the rush of eq pvp.

Right so you're missing the point.

I've seen tons of posts saying 'come play red'. I played Sullon Zek back in the day - I know what at least that kind of PvP was like. It was fun, but I ended up going back to blue.

My point is, is that if you HAVEN'T played EQPvP and you HAVEN'T played on red, what do you judge a book by? It's cover.

And the cover for me are the likes of BigSlip and SamwiseRed who incessantly troll people and belittle everyone that doesn't agree with them. While I have no FACTUAL information to judge Red by, I do have the passive information I gather about the population base that is represented on these forums.

As such, I have no desire to play on red. It COULD be really fun -- but I'll never know because of the way it is represented on these forums.

Make sense?

Also, you wouldn't just think that about blue (Sitting for mobs). You would think that after looking @ RnF maybe, but this general forum is filled with people asking questions about the game - where to level, what quests are available, solo/duo combinations, class/game mechanics, etc.

To each their own - I agree that it could be fun, just that red needs to reign in their trolls if you want to be serious about recruiting more people to play.
