I don't understand... do you just want a pvp server, or a p99 pvp server?

There have got to be other pvp servers available that are already on ez mode? I haven't checked, so I might be wrong on this one.

I imagine the majority of people who wanted to spend 150 hours leveling to 50 did it already on blue. If the server had the population to provide the experience people expect from a PvP server I imagine far fewer people would complain about the exp because they would be able to enjoy interacting with other players. However there is an abysmally low population and a lot of people understand that putting more players in fewer zones will increase interaction with others.

A lot of people argue about it here as if it where a black or white issue. EXP has been increased so it seems apparent to me that at some point the dev team realized there was some merit to the argument. Personally as someone who commits 10-15 hours a week it's demoralizing that I'm not even in my 30s at this point. It would be nice to be able to play here without having to give up other things, to be able to say this is my hobby instead of my part time job.

Okay, as devil's advocate, explain to me what is wrong with being in your 30s? Does PvP in EQ only get fun at 50?

Right now out of 64 people I am the only person in my zone. If 64 people online had all been 40+ I'm pretty sure I'd at least be able to go find one. I had to CR when I logged in today, I traveled through 3 zones to get where I am and no one is in any of them. It isn't about being 50, it's about playing with other people.

Might have something to do with PvP requiring other people to fight. Not sure yet, I'll get back to you but probably not.

Tho the issue is Nirgon, nihilum would LOVE this server if it was just them logging in and killing bosses every night with no one else on it, so they don't care if the server pop is 200, 150, 100, or 30, as long as they can get more pixels that don't matter in PVE, with the exception of mistwalker and main tank loot, not to mention you kill almost everything with charm pets.

Classic resists patch = better pvp
More content >> closer to kunark = more people.

Kunark (and velious) is what people want to play. Theres like 10x as much to do, stuff to fight over, cool dungeons to farm, epics and a lot of really sweet legacy gear off the bat. I don't want to super rush the timeline, but i think when we get closer to kunark, more people will start playing and likely a lot of people will start out new on the server.

I can't see someone invested in another server who has access to kunark+ (like blue and all other emus) coming back to just classic, even if they want classic pvp.

In short:
General server love, fixes and content = moar peeps.
