I did some extensive blue to red recruiting before it was cool, as consequence I ended up getting a shit load of tells and input from new to red players over the years. One of the more common opinions was that starting years after the server was released was a huge turn off for a lot of new potential players.

When they did eventually quit, that was almost always the reason given.

solution is not a wipe, it could change anything or it could change everything. Its up to the people really but im wondering what would happen if we wipe it now and we have TMO guys having a clean competition with the red nerds, i think people also learns from mistakes.

Im sure EVERYONE who plays red, even someone who would lost a bis character would enjoy much more the server, theyre time spent playing, and maybe with some fun pvp going on etc we can create a different culture for the server, as it stands right now u cant really change the culture its been going for the past 4 years.

my 2 cents, anyway wipe it clean wont happen so we can only troll with it

The idea of a second pvp server that merges with the first after X amount of time would be good. Wiping a server alienates your core players, in the hopes of new people, and old players who are too sick too quit.

And of course empire is going to troll this thread/say no to a wipe/new server lol. They have no reason not to, no competition popping up yet. Someone said earlier that population always starts high then dies, that literally happened with this server due to a cutthroat guild at the top, seems like this could be happening again. Maybe seriously reconsider some of these options in a month or two from now when pop is 150-200 at peak with 100 of those being empire.

Unban accounts Derubael banned since he's been confirmed dirty by the higher ups. Derubael with all the good things he's done has also hurt this community. He's literally banned me the second time for giving away items to players. You will hear less of these wipe it clean issues if players that got screwed by Derubael gets there hard earned items/ accounts back.

We did classic on red. It was down to 10-20 or less during prime time before kunark. It's fun but it gets stale. If classic only was a good option why did no one play?

Gee I wonder. Same guild situation we have now. No XP bonus, no pnp, XP loss on pvp death, broken clickies, broken resists, No GMs, no Kithicor... I could go on.

Despite all that though, it was still easier to find PvP during peak hours lol.

Sirken, have you seen anyone from Empire ask for a wipe, how about Nihi before that.

It's a troll used by people who aren't winning and think it will change things.

Velious has only been out a week you need to wait and see if a second guild will form up and take Kunark or will it just be farmed by 18 <Friends> and boxes which is possible.

Having a 2nd box merge into this box would probably not work, if you add velious it undermines farming shit on Red99, and if you don't the guild that merges will only be in kunark shit and will get destroyed.
