We're consistantly below 100 people online lately. RD crumbling exclusively due to exp nerf and its effects. My guess is this sunday will be a two guild, 80 person box once again.

As evidenced by the staffs' unwillingness to negotiate the exp bonus, or lack thereof, despite literally everyone but faerie, azure, and rellapse disagreeing with them it might be safe to say they (staff) do not want input or feedback.

Staff has their own perception of, direction desired, and plans for the box. Whether or not that aligns with community desires or preferences is yet to be seen, but what is known is those qualities dont seem to be essential.

You're in our world now.

This perception perpetuates the problem. Only a select few rejects do that in OOC. Most of OOC is fine, and on top of that most of the regular R99'ers are actually in TS talking to friends or in GC.

The community isn't more toxic than blue. You notice it more in OOC because the same neckbeard anti-socials that won't quit begging for attention make sure you notice them. That's the only social network they have.

You're in our world now.
They griefed themselves off of the server by being so stubborn. It's the same game they were playing a month ago, if they were getting xp back then they can continue getting it now. We shouldn't settle for a watered down game simply to appease those who feel entitled to level 60.

The GMs assure us that positive changes are coming soon, and they're sincere people that care for the server and have information that we don't. Doubt is a hindrance, and it makes enemies of our very selves.

You guys can all jump ship if you want, but I'm going to be spending my online time PLing newbies, porting people and handing out rezzes.

haha you werent there in 2010 when the AND YOU LOVE IT guy was around on blue were you, nothing compares to that guy

But yeah u got a bunch of manchilds here for sure.

Red dawn was the first time i met people beside the occasionnal off one in az or nihilum where i went shit, normalish people! I dont consider myself normal but im not usually an asshole. Thats what i mean by "normals", people whos entire life doesnt revolve around harrassing people and trying to make other people feel miserable because theyve got low self esteem or their life is shit and gotta take it out on somebody.

Basically you get this viewpoint because moderation is pretty much non-existent on forums, GMs like more posting videos of darth vader in a thread, than banning someone whos talking shit about someones RL in the very same thread.

Its really not that bad if you find the right crew, and RD is your best bet if youre looking for that laid back, chill out play the game vibe. (Edit, HB quit, RD probably gonna die now, oh well)

1. Exp bonus
Exp is already challenging. Add pvp and only your hardcores will be patient enough to endure.

2. Make fresh red server
This will mitigate/eliminate twinks and griefers to some extent.
Will allow certain groups, guilds, and communities to start and flourish correctly
Keep server around long enough for it to grow healthily

3. Merge both red servers
Population fixed
Perception of server fixed
