You really can't do nothing on red unless you join the bigger guild.

Most camps are open. If you are referring to raiding only, then yes that comment is true

you will never ever get the good loot. So what's the point of feeding into 25 people? They will never quit so it's 17th alts while you drop 400hours of dkp on common drops that would other wise go to the vault.

Once players get raiding level and join a guild. Within a month or so they are decked out. I have seen it with my own eyes.

Be patient friend! It's coming!

Everyone said you played on red I don't know if that's even true. Again I didn't know people would completely falsely identity to join opposite guilds and get information. I just play eq...

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

A new blue wont accomplish nothing. The same people will dominate if they move over and the same people will QQ endlessly about it.

Just because your not having fun at your server, and believe that a new server will make you happier, it might happen at first, but slowly, unless we change classic mechanics to the numbers/Era Time Lock to kill a mob here, keep in mind, that some type of "A/A" will lock both servers timers once they have enough leveled chars. And all of that has nothing to do with RED, as long theres 1 person enjoying it, its worth.

ps: Never played on red.

i thought 'wipe it clean' wasn't allowed, especially in server chat?

I don't know what resources it takes to run Red, but assuming Rogean and the guides there still enjoy having Red up as well as the small population of players there do too, I don't honestly see an issue with it.

I also think a new p99 server would be fun to start up on. No one is saying all problems that exist on p99 Blue would never be present if a new server was started, no idea why people think they need to point that out.

A new p99 server would be fresh though, and allow for a new economy to begin. It could bring new players back that quit a long time ago, as well as people who want to try p99 but are too intimidated by the lack of a newer economy and so many twinks/fatcats running around.

I don't know if running two "blue" servers would be good, perhaps this would separate the conglomeration of neckbeards into two pools thus eliminating some of the bottlenecking of raid mobs/epic mobs?

Then again, having two blue servers could dump the population into two smaller pools making neither server very fun due to a smaller pop on them? I don't know, how it would pan out tbh.
