And honestly, might also point to why the servers were merged so early on in the classic timeline ~

Huh?? The servers were merged once Teal was no longer necessary. When Teal was launched the staff explicitly said that it was a temporary server to fix overcrowding with newbie and low level zones and would be removed once the population spread out a little bit beyond the first like 12 levels. That's what they did.

dupe names shouldn't be a problem and it's classic AF

first xfer off Fennin tons of us went and made dupe named lvl 1 characters on the other server to get free name changes, it puts a X at the end of the incoming toon name.

takes 5 minutes to make a slash command to handle it ingame for people with dupe names, they just don't have 5 minutes and/or care

There's also less CSR than there was back during Green / Teal. GMs are leaving the project- doesn't bode well for a new server

My idea on fixing server pop

Merge green into blue

All population on one server now rather than split with uneven proportions.

Never make a green again. It ruined blue. Blue used to be very fun at all levels and once green came along that all went away.

Blue used to be a place you could go and find a group in unrest or mistmoore. It was fun leveling a new character up, meeting new people, having those oh crap moments, overcoming a particularly difficult mob or situation..

Nowadays, blue is mostly a graveyard pre level 50. It is very difficult if not impossible to find a group. If you do find someone in unrest or the sort, they are usually super twinked out and not always willing to group up.

We need to merge the servers, bring the community back together, and learn to group again. Have fun leveling that new warrior or cleric or whatever your fancy is.

With servers like Quarm and The Hero's Journey taking population as well I don't think it is worthy to have the limited population split on 2 servers. Bring everyone together.

Make Blue Server Great Again!

teal & green were the first time they ever had an era-accurate patch cycle, their first real attempt at 'recreating classic everquest'.
I'm sorry that you missed out and feel this way, but blue was just the blueprint for a bigger project. As someone who played blue launch, it was nowhere close to what teal/green became. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
