As a new player. I agree with a lot that was said by this fella. I have had a total of 2 groups my entire play time on this server. I have been playing a little over a month now , (casually, mind you). A exp increase won't fix the majority of the problems that was stated, however it would help some of them. Such as, getting to level 50 quicker for pvp and groups. As well as promoting new players to come play on a server in hopes too catch up to the real population.

I feel the exp bonus decrease was a bad idea personally. It was one of the +'s this server had going for it to play on. There needs to be more incentive to drive new players to come here. I feel a lot could be done. For example yellow text pvp kill messages have been wanted since server start. Resist need to be looked at too. I really dislike making Everquest easier for people ,however certain things need to happen to drive a player base.

Ultimately, in order to drive a player base up in my opinion. The devs , and gms of this server need to listen and play a active roll to support it's player base. I feel red99 is like the charity work of blue99. Nilborg is giving his attention to us more often than he use to. Sirken himself stepped up to really put in some work in gming. We also have I believe a new guide assisting players. Truth be told red99 is secondary to blue99. Nilborg is cluster fucked with Velious no doubt. Let alone the bug fixes etc for blue99 and sometimes red. We need a Dev that cares about this server. With Null gone, all we have is Sundawg. Judging by his current fixes and lack of community relations. It would appear he only serves that in which benefits him personally and or his guild. Rogean himself just looks like he patches once in a while and codes some minor things. What Red99 needs is a Dev devoted to it. That way we don't have to rely on Nilborg crumbs (Which we are greatful for) to help. Once red99 has a active Dev that cares as much as Sirken. I feel server would be grand.

In closing bringing back the exp bonus to what it was is a start.

I used to PL people so much just to see them never log on again. My new approach to helping the population thrive is just level up alts only grouping. Seems to be having a higher retention rate.

However I would really like to see some more healers grouping. Haven't been able to play my warrior but 2 hours the last 4 days because we cant find healers. Need moar clerics and shamans.

Listen to the boo hoo up in this bitch. Jesus. Listen here kids, no one said shit was gonna be easy. And to be honest most of the qq here is largely the product of the victim mentality so prevalent modern america. Never get grps? wtf? I've been here a bit longer than a month but I never really had trouble finding grps from cb to kc. Maybe I'm lucky.

If ya can't hang, don't.

Shits classic son and it's about hardship.

What lvl is your warrior Samwise? My sham is 24, logged in a few times the last few days, couldn't find anyone to chill with and logged off.

I've done the solo/box level thing enough on other servers it just doesn't appeal to me here.

It's about having a good time, if they're not having a good time they're going to leave. It's that simple. Enough people don't have a good time and the pop goes down to 40.

I do agree players should be able to get to play with others as soon as possible or they won't last. I wish this wasn't necesssary for the box's survival.

I've been trying to start as many group as possible in mid 30's and 40's. Currently sitting at 41 now. I could easily be solo AE kiting but I choose to start groups and get others who arent as lucky as I am to get some experience going. Its amazing how hard it is for me to actually fill a group of 6 people 30-43. So far havent had any clerics, and only one monk. Its all mages, druids, wiz, shaman. Literally no melee players in this range and thats what I was really hoping to help.
