Its pretty fucking obvious.. The person who works 40 hours a week has saturday and sunday off. You might get a hour in at night, or even a couple during the weekend. If you have a family or kids and a wife good luck getting on for more then that. EXP boost would instantly bring the person like that back.
This.

I played/play on blue and attempted to play on red99 when it was released. While I understand that complaining about exp translates into being weak or some bullshit like that, the above statement perfectly explains why I didn't continue to play on the server. I know some of you basement dwellers have disposable time, most of us just don't. I'd love to compete for pixels at dragons but I just can't invest the same amount of time as the high end players and I'm betting a lot of other players can't either.

I'm not sure what will help, but I believe the following factors are and will continue to plague this server:

Blue99: quite simply, people have already invest huge amounts of time to get their character where it's at, starting again can be hard for some people.

New Games: Diablo 3, Star Wars, Tera and Guild Wars on the horizon are opening up some options after the stale WoW era (which a lot of people came here to get away from)

End Game Content:
Some people may call it fail MMO's(WoW etc), but there's a reason why millions played, people don't like getting cut off from content when they're playing a game. Call it carebare or whatever else but you guys are the ones with the server population of 9... (currently blue's issue as well)

EXP:
See above, who the fuck wants to grind for a months on end so they can enjoy PVP and an attempt at end game content. WTF ?

Population:
Most of you are scum, straight up. No one wants to play with hipster faggots that complain and bitch all day.

FWIW, I'd just enjoy what you have and hopefully people will come along, but I wouldn't count on it.


EDIT: Bitching about server population and then telling people to go play WoW seems counter productive.

I'm a full time student and when red99 was released I had very little time to spare. It just meant that it took longer for me to get to level 50. The game is still fun before you're level 50.

Maybe for you it is...but you're missing the point.

You and the other 30 people that play on this server are a small percentage (if any) of todays gamer. What you find fun, one million other players don't. Add that with the other issues I pointed out and you get a dead server.

EDIT: to be honest, I can't really think of any major changes (exp,content.etc) that would increase the population to acceptable numbers (not even sure what you guys would like for population) There's a good chance EQ is finally dying off.

Welcome to classic EQ, where everyone does not get a trophy. Try WoW if you want a server where "everyone wins!"

In classic EQ not everyone can be a "high end player", if they could then the title would not mean anything.

Can't you have fun just being a "low end player" and PvPing in crushbone and unrest?

If not, try WoW where everyone is a "winner".

Stop trying to wowify the ONLY classic red experience left on the planet.

Good day.

Don't you get it ? No one wants to play your "ONLY CLASSIC RED EXPERIENCE LEFT ON THE PLANET" - It's the reason it's ..gasp...the only one.

I could careless about trying to WoWify your server, but It's entertaining to read the complaining about server population, then making posts telling people to go play WoW.

Enjoy your fail server. Eventually no one will be a winner. Derp.
