Semi Long Term Idea (4-5 months) to Make Red 99 Fluorish

These are valid concerns, although griefers are now proliferating Red as it is... twinks with rubi BPs, haste items, etc are constantly griefing NEW people to the server. I have met 7 people who have started and left in their mid-teens/twenties because griefing twinks were CCing them.

Legacy era is good for all... encourages new players and those who didn't make it in time to Red99. Let's be honest, the majority of players on Red99 are past level 42... so they won't switch over. If red reaches 80-100 peak pop now, it might change to what 70-90?

I just don't see red gaining ground in the near future, despite honest efforts from most of the community (besides the forum doomsday people). The reality is that Red99 needs help both playerside and from the devs. Hoping some more people can throw out decent ideas to kickstart the PvP Project 1999 community. The Red 99 server right now is just sorta festering. Too bad too, first couple weeks it was a lot of fun (minus the broken stuff).

pop is all time low, rebounding but low

splitting it does NOTHING

creates a ghost server with no druid pals to help vs

play now, lvl now, get pals, win game.


seems like youve never played launch of anything, lifes hard out there dawwg

your reading comprehension is SO FRIGGIN BAD, my god...

A NEW SERVER WOULDN'T SPLIT THE POPULATION... wow, just wow you are dumb. People are already invested too much in their characters to all jump ship. You think Nihilum, FF, and others are going to just leave Red99, they are like 80% of the population.

I have played launch of 1998 EQ beta, 1999 EQ, all expansions up to PoP, and Red99 launch... go home.

And no, I play a mage (solo class) so life is pretty easy on Red99... it just isn't as fun as it could be. If you don't like my idea, that's cool, but illogical things like "derp will split server" gtfo.

/facepalm... this was all mildly entertaining, between the lawls and dawggs... oh well

you laugh at people who play solo classes like mage, but then what else is there to do on a sparsely populated server

i give up, you forum griefed me, you win

i was just really hoping you would have at least one valid point, just one

bro i am a solo pally, get like me and do a man's job. There is nothing stopping you
from being 50 right now. but you know that big bad pally would smoke you 1v1
thats the trade off dawwggg


you are not looking for valid points but just to through another one out there,

2nd server is just a pussy way of wiping, rogean blessed be his name promised no wipes ever and so, your plan is gay and dum

i am level 50, your whole point is invalid... oh no big bad paladin, your perceived wang length on the forums must be huge right now, haha challenging someone on the forums... oh silly tombom, grow up

it is not a "pussy way of wiping"... it is a potential way to save the server, just don't get it i guess

you can't teach stupid

yes, the server is gaining a little bit right now thanks to global ooc and new content, it could be so much more though

[Tombom]

no wang length bro, just simple eq fact, pally smokes mage 1v1 every time. i am just implying that you are a tad jelly and perhaps regret your decision to lvl a dum gurly class.

THATS IT

that is why you want the new server! you want to start fresh as a melee and feel the
blood course to your small floppy underused loins, feel the ecstasy of a 2hander ploppin
down on a sitting caster and absolutly crushing them....

it all makes sense

in all honesty, i cannot actually tell which reply of yours is where you started trolling... well played

[Tombom]

/hug,

see you in game pal

[Sorath]

the prob with the eq community is its split up so much but the majority just complain,,,, lots of servers have come and gone all mostly due to people running them getting tired of suporting somthing for evil greedy bastard sons of satan.
