Why in the hell would anyone oppose a wipe? Is it that they enjoy playing with a primetime pop of 50? I mean seriously, lets be serious about this, why has a wipe NOT came yet? Noone is playing Red anyways so whats it hurting?

Everyone would come back and more.

Because a wipe would send most of the remaining pop packing and only fair weather players would start playing again and the end result would be an even deader server a year later.

Zekpvp is a wipe server; it died near the end of s1 (i think its been setup for s2 now?) A few more cycles of that and thay server will be dead.

What they should do is an enable a 1 time red>blue or blue>red xfer per account and toon has to be 60.

Pretty sure you'd lose a bunch of redders but a bunch of bluers would bounce outta that +/-8 hr bs they gotta put up with.

They cant allow server transfers people would make way too much money.

Probably just the electric bill. I think rogean hosts the servers. so everything else is probably pretty minimal.
Add blue server into the formula and red is probably nothing more then a tiny cost bump in the grand scheme.

Game doesn't use that much bandwidth compared to modern games, servers. So with fewer people logging into red it's probably not even worth considering shutting down.
Wiping it would just cause a spike in useage of the rack. heh

He posted pics a while back of where it is hosted, some datacenter out east. You're typically billed for the space and electric circuits (maybe) but not usage. We're talking like 4-5 pieces of equipment here for both blue and red in a single rack, including the networking gear. Cost is not a factor in shutting the server down, at least while blue is still going.

Force a purge on blue server, losers of mass PvP tournaments will be force transferred to red.

Win.
