Numbers don't lie friend.

Red is always 1/3rd or less than the population of blue. It's quite empty and you don't run into anyone :/. Especially since the entire server is /anon and /role. People are afraid to interact with others.

But... Since we are talking. I figured I'd share with you my favorite GIF:

You're right numbers don't lie. Red was regularly 1/10 of blue a few months ago, so 1/3 of blue is quite the achievement.

There's always people in gfay/crushbone, field of bone and such. If you started a troll/ogre or an erudite I'd see your point about not seeing anyone for a while [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

1/3 was me being extremely generous. Currently it's about 1/5.

But if Red fixed all it's non-classic elements, it would be way more happening:

No PvP Yellow Text.
No global OOC
Standard Group EXP Bonuses, not this bogus that red has
Item Loot
No Item Clicky Recharge

Every time I get on red I end up logging after 5 minutes because of how unclassic it is. It ruins my immersion to see yellow text followed by 20 people saying PRAS in non-classic global OOC.

Unfortunately this game sort of reflects real life. There is some really nice people you meet and some people that are not the nicest people you ever met.

I think there are sort of more people that play P1999 in some of the top Guilds that fit in the latter.

The reverse asshole filter. Never met so many drama queens, losers and asshats then when I joined the raiding scene on live.

People who are decent and want to "play" the game drop from guild because of the shit atmosphere while people who loot whore, spend 30+ hours a week at "the job" stay until the guild is made up primarily of the assholes.

And then of course you have the inevitable RMT, bank thefts, training, etc etc that comes from having guilds full of ftards.

Yes I'm bitter.

Played EvE Online for 10 years and same thing happens in corps n alliances so it's an mmo game design problem I guess.

Its just the human element to these games.

The players who take the game the most seriously are the ones who will be the most successful in terms of top content. Since they take the game seriously they're the ones most likely to value pixels>people or get worked up over pixels issues.

Which EVE power block were you aligned with? Former TEST then N3 player here.

This made me lol pretty hard. Because even though I spend very little time on red and haven't seen this, briefly sifting through the PvP forums makes it completely believable.
