its actually easy altho 25% more time consuming then if you could find a perma group on red (do not exist)
It will be far more than 25% slower. Saturation is as big of a problem on blue as low pop is on red.

Also I'm not against transferring but I feel like it should go both ways (So I can quit red and go to blue if they allow blues to transfer here)

why

the exp is only 25% faster here and there is no groups at all, period, nadda.

the leveling here is much slower then on blue (not considering quad classes)

I don't see the huge threat to the server that a lot of people do with blue transfers and I also think it's retarded for people to feel slighted by players transferring to red "without earning it on red". There are pros and cons to the grind on both sides and no player on blue or red had it as easy as the poeple on red when the full xp bonus was active.

The population increase that you would see with the blue transfers should absolutely trump (in a positive way) any negative feelings you would have about the way those characters got there because the biggest issue on this server right now is population (as long as only no-drop items).

Increased population would increase grouping.
Increased population would help the raid scene.
Increased population would help the PvP scene.

I might be ok with transferring but only with NO GEAR/ITEMS at all.

Can you imagine the massive account sales the week before this is announced. The pure nightmare.

I have 2 blue level 60s I would move over. But I don't feel loot earned on blue is the same as earned on red. For good or bad, neither should be allowed to keep it when transferring.

I am still pretty much against transfers though. I was on live as well.

The reality of blue transfer is in my opinion not going to be a population increase over the long term, but instead another avenue for throwaway accounts and bad behavior. How many accounts are for sale on blue? What prevents someone from training on red, and bringing a blue character over to replace the toon they just chucked at a raid force with no regard for its well being?

I don't think anything else needs to be done to attract new players but more of what needs to be done to keep players. It seems like new players have joined the server steadily but the population isn't really budging. That means people are quitting as fast as people are coming.

The attention Sirken has been giving the server is a big positive. Also it looks like some changes are soon to come. Sirken has said countless times he agrees that pvp exp penalty is a bad thing. No matter how a gm feels about a subject they wouldn't voice it unless it was in the works, it is their job to defend the server even if they don't agree with it.

With the attention Sirken has been giving these posts you know the people in charge at least know what the people want. Pay close attention to what Sirken says and you will get some hints on what is to come.

Also don't get upset if you don't get what you want. Everyone states if what I want doesn't happen the server will fail, but not everyone can have their ideas implemented. This is obvious but people are way to black and white with their opinions on here.
