So you're still insisting the people want to PvP over ... nothing? If that was the case this server would be a screaming success!

Theres no one to PvP. Its not that there is no content to PvP over, its that there are NO PEOPLE to PvP.

Nihilum has no comprehension. Keep asking for PvE, because THATS why people play on a PvP server, for the PvE.

People play for both actually, just like it was in classic. PVP is for fighting over PVE, otherwise, PVP means next to nothing. If people want nonstop pvp, theres plenty of fps out there or WoW arenas and battlegrounds. Thats sounds like it would be right up your alley, and for the rest of the custom server crowd. This, however, is Everquest.

Welcome to Everquest.

Devs please read this and understand that the 2 posters so adamantly arguing against increasing the exp rate continually tell people who want to play on this server to go play other games.

clearly not concerned about increasing population and only concerned with adding more lvl 50 content for them to farm uncontested.

needs vs wants.

what the level 50s want is not the same as what the server needs to survive.

Welcome to Everquest.

If I wanted to Kill dragons uncontested like you and the rest of your dumbass Guild wants to, id be on BLUE1999 (OH WAIT, The original members of Nihilum left Blue because of the spawn competition). We are in the PvP Version of EQ. We want PvP with a sprinkle of PvE. PvP requires people. Red99 is suffering due to lack of people, not lack of content.

Destin if you don't want to pvp there are plenty of PvE games out there.

[heartbrand]

Thankfully EQ is a mmorpg which means you cannot beat the game, you cannot win, there are no game created goals or what not, it's up to each individual player to create his own goals and definitions of victory / fun. In this case the vast majority of the players are saying we want changes which will encourage PVP for the sake of PVP. The tribe had spoken destin, please bring me your torch, it's time for you to leave.

Here is a simple solution:

Make news of a 200-300% xp bonus a week ahead of time before it goes live. Implement it for ONE month, consider and look at the turnout if it doesn't improve population, scrap it.. if it does, let it linger another month and hopefully it motivates more people to play.

I've leveled multiple 50s, it's not terribly hard but then again they were all casters. I could care less if they implement an xp bonus for a month or two if it actually brings new players into the world, I don't care for it if it's just going to make people level up alts faster. It would need to be something closely monitored by devs, but I believe giving a several week advance notice of it would help turn players to it.

I was against it initially, but really it is obvious the server is in dire need of something that would shock the population or any potential players, and that would be a serious EXP bonus. I know it goes against the grain of classic, but classic pop was never 40 people on primetime. For the people that say it devalues their time or the time it took them to get 50, who seriously gives a shit when this server has basically turned into a single player experience?

I'll sum it up with one quote:

"Drastic times calls for drastic measures"
