Think you're missing my point. Why would I want to play on a server if I'm going to be limited in logging in because of a player count cap. Think the cap will only serve over time to reduce PQ population to consistently below the cap...that's obviously the goal and intent of Daybreak in imposing it.
Doesn't PQ also have an inactivity timer that logs you out after some period?

I think I read they're turning bazaar accounts into standard accounts as well.

No, youre are confusing Quarm with Takp servers. Quarm is a single box server like p99.

Daybreak wasn't targeting Quarm, very strange they did that to themselves. Why poke a sleeping bear. Daybreak also has no capability to monitor what exactly is coded on a server, they can't enforce hardly any demand really, aside from super obvious ones like server caps, since that's easily viewable.

What I mean there is you're going to see an abundance of 18 minute autoclickers to save your spot in line until you're ready to play. Or however long is necessary.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if the numbers are close to 1,200 that a bunch of people just get autoclick macros/scripts going so they are never logged out

I heard the population isnt even reaching cap after luclin which is crazy considering i was expecting thousands of players. Daybreak neutering the server must have hurt the potential population

Finding a group in the 40s is getting quite difficult for a server of its online population. Everyone's 60 and hammering AAs or rolling alts and redoing Unrest again and again.

That said I asked for a port in the not-classic ports global channel the other day and got 5 replies in a few seconds. Said yes to the first one, apologized in the ports channel and said I got one with (1st one name)... then one of the others turned up anyway just hoping.

No wonder <Dial A Port> lost the market [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

they were rarely hitting cap before the lawsuit aside from expac launches as is, the cap was an odd stipulation from darkpaw lames
