Jesus, man. You don't solo and you say you have to wait 1-4 hours for groups... but that hasn't stopped you from getting an ogre shadow knight to 30 already?

But seriously. Just stop going to the few zones that are the most busy unless you're willing to be in a zone that's busy. Those places won't be empty with another server either. Another server won't magically cause groups to need tanks more quickly. Etc.

Tecmo. I am actually 32 now. I run all over places trying to solo. Yes 1-4hours is very typical for a group. Theres only so many camps, all of which are farmed and split into so many groups. I do have an option of going to Everfrost/permafrost to try and lvl. But as an Orge SK that is a long trip.
Another server would split those camps another time, again go run into befallen. Yesterday around noon I was helping a group PL in befallen. Second floor had 5 groups in it + 1 enc solo. There is what 7 rooms total on 2nd floor. With 19 min respawn. Everywhere is overcrowded. Upguk with 65+ people in it is usually 8+ LFg bc all camps are taken.

Solleks have you looked at Teal Pop? its right behind Green. At this point what purpose is it to move to Teal?

You missed his point. Your reasoning leads to:

"If Teal is only a little less crowded than Green, then what's the point?"
"If Aquamarine is only a little less crowded than Teal, then what's the point?"
"If Emerald is only a little less crowded than Aquamarine, then what's the point?"

But again. Your problem isn't just one of population. A group still only needs 1 tank even if they have an entire zone all to themselves. You being on a list to join a group as a tank isn't going to magically go away when the population is lower. Most groups still aren't going to want to add an ogre shadow knight if they already have a tank.

Means keep opening them until you stay around 500 pop. Then its perfect. Tanking has no issue. My brother who is cleric also sits Soloing for 1-4 hours LFG. (We play some times same times other not so don't bother with why not group together, hes much lower lvl then me at 22)
I watch plenty of people aka Mages/enc/wizards/druids sitting on same list as me. We all jump on 7-8 list of camps and all go solo/duo/(find tiny little 1-3 spawn camps out in Karanas or some random out of way area) until one is called on. Its not just tanking or healing. Its all.

So you want lower pop, but you won't go to a lower pop unless it's exactly what you want.

So you want to group, but you're literally an entire group sitting on a list instead of forming a group and going somewhere to kill stuff.

Maybe you can pay for them to open like 3 or 4 more servers so they're all at 500 people per server then. Or do you not want to bear the burden of paying for all of that? No? Okay then maybe appreciate that the staff pay for this out of their own pocket for the most part and they've already incurred extra expense to open a second server

Techno sorry clearly didnt type out all ofit. Solo/duo/groups/tiny spawns...We do form groups. Teal isnt really a lower pop 90% of time its only 100-150 less players.. That means what 44 zones yay u reduced 2 people out of every zone...GG.

CD288 Yes everyone should donate. I do, Also clearly plenty of other post that show appreication on that I've posted on. We(most) are all grateful for their hard work and what they do. Your argument though is truly only real good argument against more servers. This thread is about wanting more, ie hopeful. So I myself am hopeful for more.
