Rolling on Red99?

[Took]

Hey if you wanna be a glass half empty type of person go for it.

Was level 9 last thursday, currently 43. Can't say anything you've mentioned has happened to me in that time leveling.

And no there is zero challenge left on blue. Tookie is handing out CoF's, manastones and fungis in EC and Chardok AoE groups run 24/7 selling PL spots for 2.5k a pull.

Please tell me how that is "challenging" because I would love to hear it. The only challenge left on blue is tracking for enough DKP to eventually bid on your epic no drops.

There's a good reason why blue has 5-10x the pop of red at any given minute of the day, and it's not because red is a place worth being.

Blue has the higher population because it's easier and has the majority of the development team focusing on it.

You come off as one of those people that's bitter and angry at the very existence of a PvP server.

Totally not a troll. Wish more people could see that red isn't the toxic grief fest that everyone makes it out to be. Even before PnP went in, it wasn't half as bad as people made it sound. Now that there's something in place specifically to protect the little guy, I'd like to see some more people rolling over there to get the box going.

Also, I've been spending my time on red recently, so there is more of a staff presence there for people that need help.

EQ PvP is a blast. People just need to give it a try. And the community is actually really great most of the time - the forums are an inaccurate representation of what really goes on in the day to day on the server.

Let us blue players copy a character or two over to red and you will have more players than you can shake a stick at.

Being able to play one of my toons on red while staring at a spawn on blue is very enticing. However, personally I am too invested into blue at this point to restart on red.

I know this has been suggested before by myself and others but it would bring red pop from 80ish to 500+ over night.

While this wouldn't be overly fair to the few players like the OP who are actually starting from scratch on the server, overall it would be a good thing for the server.

You could limit transferred toons to sub 55 or 50 if you wanted and I still think people would sign up in droves.

pvp is fine, having no one to play with not fine

The only thing that it would take for me to roll Red would be a personal invite from Samwise.

Love that guy's posts.

I play both. I got 60 faster on blue than on red because of the insane amounts of PLs. I like playing on both servers and I recommend playing both. 2 Monitors makes it easy to farm on blue waiting for spawns while PvPing on red.

It is even possible to play a ranger on red?
