Personally not excited they are splitting the community.

Was fun to see obscure zones crowded while it lasted though! Very neat to see people in Kerra and Lake Rathe.

A shame but it is what it is. Thanks for the great work to make this all possible!

It's fun to run around in circles for hours trying to find a random snake or bat to kill just to have someone chasing after you that they were camping that spawn [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Praise Jah! Take a deep breath nerds, by the time it actually gets competitive on raid scene the servers will be merged. This will just allow easier leveling, which is much needed. Dumb to only have 3 hours a night to play (only in peak hours), and then spend all your time searching for some sort of experience. Just be excited that there are that many folks ready to play this 20 year old game. Awesome work ! thanks!

I dont know why some of you all believe that a second server is going to fix the raid scene. It only takes, what, 20-50 people to lock down classic content. It was the same shit on Blue with even fewer players than Green and Teal will have. Stop trying to convince yourself this is going to fix raiding. It's going to be great for a select few, and non-existent for the rest of us.

The server split is just going to allow for you to have more mobs to slay while you level your alts. Not so you have a better chance at raid content. You're gonna have to join the one guild that locks everything down.

Gonna need to implement raid lists, rofl. What a mess.

EQ Raiding at it's core has always been flawed. The only somewhat workable solution is to ease bottlenecks. The current bottleneck forming on Green would have been epic beyond anything anyone has ever seen in EQ.

I think the Devs are calculating all of the raid petitioning they are going to have to deal with if they don't do something now. I would even be in favor of trashing Red and creating a third Classic Box. Red is a total waste of precious resources right now that could be used to spread out the population even more. Ideally 600-700 per server would be optimal.

I don't put anything past the neckbeards with Aspergers. They will constantly push everything to the limit because their autistic "accomplishments" will always be rooted within an ego that cannot be fed by the Reality. I'm sure a few will roll out 50s on both servers, but that's a lot of work and they will be doubling up their competition and time investment.

Wipe the damn box (or merge the toons into blue) and start it over as a classic/green timeline PvP server. Whatever ruleset they are concocting can't come soon enough. Just opening the new PvP99 would go a long way to help green, there's a TON of red-fugees on there...send them back to their psych ward.

Indeed it is. However, I wasn't promoting resurrecting red. I am merely suggesting a thought provoking solution to everyone's problem here.
