Also, yes we a group in the mid 30's range at trakanon. What you are failing to comprehend is that more than 10 were Dentists and we were gathering for over 3 hours. That's not an instant login because something is up and get there. The batphone was sent out at like 1am est, and we didnt have everyone there until about 4am est.

The average Azrael raid force is between 14-22, most of those people are online at regular intervals. Stop trying to compare numbers with us Eldaran, your guild dwarfs us and everyone knows it.

In the argument of varience, if on the off chance that something like Sev spawned at midnight est, there's a higher chance of Azrael killing it than Nihilum getting people batphoned in in time.
All I am saying is, even based off of your information in this given situation the nihilum bat phone would go off and we would have way more online within 5 min.

Then you still dont get the spawn and we all lose because we live our lives waiting for bat phones.

If you instantly want to see the server population drop then implement variance. If you want to grow the server then look at the other ideas.

the best thing for the server is for everyone to join one guild.

Nothing wrong with that at all. Nihilum welcomes the competition. But we want things to be happening at a reasonable time 8pm-1am weekdays and 3pm-1am weekends. No one wants this 5:45am on a tuesday bs.

One mega guild so we can take Kerafyrm down. Then we can disband and go FFA.

Sounds like a plan.

i really dont think you have a leg to stand on when it comes to ways to fix the servers population. like many other, you guys joined the server and went straight to Nihilum. it kind of makes it hard for there to be competition when all the blue poop-sockers flock to the same guild. i know alot of you are lazy and want easy loots. many of you who came from blue were pretty much griefed out of the raid scene by TMO only to join red and pretty much do the same thing to everyone else.

wish more scrubs wanted to work for their shit. sadly most of you joined red99 not to pvp and have fierce competition but because you knew there wasnt any competition to be had but plenty of loots :/

I went to blue to re experience end game content again that I once cleared many years ago. The blue system does not allow for that without some extreme hours in which I am not willing to commit.

Red did not have variance so I knew that X boss spawns at X time every week I could either kill it or fight over it. Either one being fun. I can plan my wife/daughter time every week around that. Instead of totally random times on blue.

In summary

Blue server is really messed up and the primary reason is variance. Red has issues sure but dont make it worse by bringing variance over here.

The only guild to suffer from variance is Nihilum, broskies. Everyone else would greatly benefit from it, especially Domingueros of Norrath.

Legalize Variance '13. It encourages the PVPs.

oh variance is dumb too dont get me wrong but a lot of red's problems can be solved if the player base would pull their head out. it SOUNDS like rogean/nilbog have some inc changes. xp loss being removed has got to be one of them so that's a step in the right direction. pvp is way to god damn personal here. RL attacks all over the place, shit is not classic. account stripping and deleting? definitely not classic, what kind of mad fucks play this game anyway. people take this game so seriously they will do ANYTHING for an advantage to include RL attacks. any sane person would run from this server without looking back, thank god most of us arent all there to begin with. just some quick comments about players shitting where they eat.

- twinks raping new players, shits classic but on a 100 person server do you really want less people playing? what the hell is wrong with you lol

- zerging, may be classic but again this server is small as hell and nowhere near classic population. you simply cant out zerg your oppenent because it could end in server dying. this has ALREADY happened once. although last time some of it had to do with crazy GM decisions but not going to go there.

- RL attacks, dumbasses are really ruining the server. put account stripping and deleting here as well.

- just being dicks in general, scamming people, training people, corpse camping, ect ect ect. bitches this aint Sullon Zek, calm the hell down.

The problem with your batphone for a mob like sev is that we'll already have our 15-20 online (for some bizarre reason) to do a mob like that. And not to mention that if people continue to be batphoned at hours they dont normally play for weeks on end, they'll probably start to ignore a lot of the batphones.
