It’s probably not OP. Enchanters are the most populated class on the server so the groups likely already have one and don’t need another
True but I'd also say the server is flooded with druids shamans mages and necros as well.

Never assume that you'll ever be able to camp any halfway decent spawn yourself and try to find the fun where you can. Step away from the poopsockers and a whole new world opens up for you, filled with cool EverQuest nerds who will give you the shirt off their back.
This has been true for 20 years now.

Anything that has either good exp or good loot is poopsocked 24-7. These groups all seem insular and circle jerk each other or something. I was in high keep the other day and they had an open spot or two and I had os charmed and asked if they had a spot. No replies. half an hour later they add someone else, and then another after that.


It's getting to the point I start getting labeled an asshole and just rule lawyering and pulling whatever I want.

i even changed my real life schedule so I could play more in the off hours, like 2-6 AM. Virtually is nothing has changed except the places with garbage exp/loot are a little less camped, but if they are camped they are usually off in bumfuck egypt and and giant pain in and the ass to go elsewhere when you find even that garbage exp/loot location camped, like at 4 AM 2 bards kiting all the aviaks worth killing at KFC. Anything with good exp/loot is out of the question as its camped 24/7, except maybe for town guards.



You’re completely right OP. As a high 20’s Cleric I sit lfg all Day(3+hrs) with my lfg tag on, do /ooc lfg, send tells to multiple people in multiple zones, “get added to lists that people don’t even pay attention to” , guild chat and all. It’s all camped to fuck. But I guess that’s what we get for leaving our sick twinkle over on blue. I’m not quitting, but it is a huge pita, and you literally have to go to bum fuck nowhere to find at least slow exp. but it’s been fun as well, I’ve been to two places I’ve never been.. and I’ve replayed for 10+ years. Ps you’ll all be paying out the ass for this 90% Rez in a few weeks for making me sit lfg all day lol. See ya inside

Ive had a different experience, three times over the weekend I got sent a tell , if i wanted a group in upper guk , one at Scryer camp, other two killing frogs near dead zl,

I wasnt lfg or had my lfg tag on, or anything , i was just soloing in oasis, and got a random tell if i wanted to group in upper guk.

While prime zones are always nice, there are a lot of good exp spots you can go to , outside of the dungeons , for good exp, and cash, i was at one spot Sat, i was the only person there , ended up making 400pp in 3 hours . and got a level at 20.

if you need to check out Alamars level guide, or p99 per level hunting guide , if you arent sure of alt places to go.

there are great spots, that are seldom used

I've gotten a couple of tells like that too, and I'm a flippin druid, which I'm told there are too many of on this server.

Picture yourself sitting in your chair. Now think about how old you are. Imagine you're 10 years older after playing here. Now picture yourself again in the exact same chair. Why not just uninstall now and save yourself the wasted years?

Imagine taking the time and effort to create an account for a video game's forum just to write posts like this.

Imagine the mentality that gets some happiness or fulfilment from acting this way.

High population is only kind of related to sitting in lfg a long time.

On a lower pop server, it's not like soloers or many duos/trios are going to invite a cleric to join them just because he bothered to type a few characters into his chat window and is sitting there. It's not like a group that already has enough healing is going to invite you over someone else. It's not like reducing the server population by half means you'll have the same number of groups around but they'll all be needing 3 more members.

Lower population will also mean fewer groups. And many of the people out there earning exp didn't want to add you regardless.

1. I didn't create an account just for that.

2. Its purpose is not for happiness or fulfillment.

4. Return to this in 10 years and reflect.

3. You're welcome.
