Derubael, you have contradicted yourself.

You say that people level too quickly and then once they reach 52 or 60, they quit.

Then when I said why don't you address why those people are quitting, you said that most people quit before they reach 52..

So, which is it ?

I'm going to say this and I think most of the hardcores will say nah your just a faggot.

I got over it eventually, I dont think most can get over trying the server for the first time.

But, I myself and others have quit due to being constantly killed over and over at 52 by lvl 60's.

The level gap is nuts... why not do rallos zek rules and use a 4 level range? In overall their may be a slower PvP gap but over time it will flourish and make the game more enjoyable. Everyone likes to kill some blue cons from time to time, but the guys on the other end getting killed at 52 with rags gear vs a 60 dude in vp gear is really unfair. Yeah this is a PvP server, I understand that, I got over it lvling past 52 eventually but I dont think this is the case for people coming to the server for the first time.

This also one of the reasons you get so much rage in ooc.

I agree to this, and I fuckin love PvP. But blocking people out of zones is pretty sad, I mean you cant even go to SoLB and try to do efreeti or tranix without 10 nilly logging in and trying to cock block it with lvl 60's

It's both, as stated in the OP.

Oh, and I agree with +/- 4 level range. Sounds classic.

Why do half the suggestions for increasing the population involve banning people you have a grudge against or that annoy you? Stop thinking about how it benefits you, your guild or your clique, otherwise any suggestion you make is no better than a troll. And not a good one like Slathar's either.

Also, stop suggesting they allow boxing or wipe the server. Everyone who is seriously promoting either one is doing so for a selfish reason, despite how many layers of benevolence you try to hide it behind.
Figuring out a way to stop people from lying and using their IP Exemption to box their father's brother's spouse's character would do far more good. Not everyone can box even if it were allowed but everyone can play one account. If the cheaters boxing now is your reasoning, it's a self-defeating reason. You boxing does not even the playing field, because now they can box four characters and so on exponentially.

Suggesting the server be wiped is ignorant and incredibly selfish. The main reason given for wiping the server is Nihilum controlling raid targets they don't need in order to deny the loot to others and the general unfairness of the highend of the game.
What the people crying for a wipe don't seem to get is that getting their wish will take from others what was denied to them, but it makes you worse than the people you fucking hate.
You may be willing to lose everything to fuck over your enemies, but not everyone cares about who hurt your feelings and how unfair it was. You do not have the right to take from everyone what they put effort in to obtain just to put a bandaid on your pride.

A wipe is not justice, it's not karma and it's sure as hell not fair. It is selfish, vengeful and makes every single person (Friend, foe, family and stranger alike) into collateral damage so you can feel vindicated on the internet.
If you just delete your account and go away it works out the same for you without involving a single innocent bystander.

P.S. If you think I'm against it because I don't want to lose my toons/gear you are wrong. I would delete my accounts without hesitation if it would be good for the entire server and/or increase the population. I got over any sense of greed back on Live and my ego will never be affected by something that occurs in a game.

I'm for boxing because I believe it would allow smaller crews to flourish, open up the low level scene and increase the abundance of high level groups, and be a huge help in Velious on a low pop server where you REQUIRE double digit clerics for raid mobs. Shrug.
