New to Red

[snyder43]

Hello Red Community!

Last Sunday's Blue login server crash was perhaps the best thing that has happened to me in EQ in quite some time. While waiting for the server to come back up, I decided to make a Red character, along with 250 other players from Blue. At the time, I didn't think that I would actually be interested in really playing on Red, until I noticed that a lot of Red players were going around and helping all the Blue Refugees and informing us of what the server is really like.

It was because of this positive experience that I started telling many of my friends on Blue about Red, and I was able to to convince two of them to roll characters on Monday. After getting to level 8 and heading to Crushbone, an Apex Druid came in and decided to PL our group to level 15! By the time we logged off, all three of us have decided that we'd like to focus our EQ time on Red.

I really can't believe how generous and welcoming the Red players have been to us. When buying my 14 spells in Felwithe last night a Sanctuary Cleric dropped by, gave me a Wraith Bone Hammer, Walrusbone Shield, and Zaharn's Coronet as well as 100pp for spell money (which I really needed)! We were able to get to level 19 lin Unrest with some pretty cool people from Sanctuary, and a higher level Sanctuary druid even hooked me up with some bronze armor.

I keep telling my other Blue friends about our experiences here, and I think I have convinced some of my them to give it a try this weekend. Red has been a breath of fresh air and I want to thank everyone for making it so great for us so far.

See you in game,
