The population on P99 has been pretty stable at the 1200-1400 number for years

You sure about that? Because last night at 9:30 pm it was 860 800ish, that’s 1660, and that was 9pm. I wonder what it was at 5-8pm or on a Friday at 5-8pm? Because I think it’s much closer to 2k then than it is 1200

There are many people who play on both servers simultaneously, so unfortunately the unique player counts are not quite as reliable as when P99 was only Blue. I wouldn't be at all surprised if 100-200 of the population on both servers are people who are playing both servers simultaneously. Everquest is slow enough to where you can have two characters camping slow spawning mobs for items or experience. You just take turns on which server you put your full focus on, depending on the mob timers.

Regardless that’s still 2 characters tying up high level camps. I don’t see that as different than 2 players personally

I’ll be playing this weekend, I’ll get some pics of close to 2k population counts on primetime weekend days. Tuna bros said p99 is dying but I actually think it’s the opposite

It matters because we are talking about total number of unique concurrent users. If there are 800 players on Blue and 800 Players on Green, but 200 of them are the same people, then in reality you only have 1400 unique concurrent users, not 1600. What this means is the total number of players playing P99 hasn't gone up, it just looks that way because the numbers are now slightly inflated.

If you're boxing green and blue you have serious issues.

Hope this helps.

Yea plus one of your chars is a cleric. That sounds like it could get boring if there isn’t some interesting group or guild chatter. Props for being willing to play that

they are obviously going to merge green into blue when the green cycle ends/resets
i will forever play on green servers, even if only to make fun of the blue beta test server neckbeards (LOL)
