Sorry to tell you that the real pvpers left red over 5 years ago, the ones green fought were more or less exiled bluebies who went to red to have uncontested pve for years on end. Congrats you beat a couple of bluebies in pvp, git gud
Imagine disowning 10 of the last 30 players you have left, yikes.

Well, red had like 500 players at the start, and it was clear that there was quite a bit of interest in a PvP server. It's just that there is almost no way to stop the VZTZ types from chasing players away because their way of life is so incompatible with anyone who has a relatively normal personality. Preventing it would take such a huge effort that it's just an unrealistic expectation. You'd need like ten GMs devoted to that server.

Big false. People played because it was new and shiny (see 'MMO population trends within 6 weeks of new content release compared to 12/15/18 week periods'). People stopped playing because EQ PvP sucks more than a phase 4 Marvel movie.

Black Panther 2 is one of the worst, most pandering pieces of capitalistic, exploitative, money grabbing bullshit trying to be passed off as cinema I've ever seen. They basically took scenes from other MCU movies and made them black. And using a man's cancer as a fucking plot point? FUCK DISNEY. That movie was dogshit.

Classic EQ PVP needs to be it's own project. it's basically a different game.

and you all know i'm right.

gonna drill this over and over until someone gets it

you guys don't need like an Unreal engine dev team, alot of the work is already done

it's statistically probable (drake equation works here) that some of you die-hard red fans are super-nerds that could sort through all the public code and make something that works which you can tune and balance to make EQ PVP playable.

DOOOO IIITTTT

No, they're legitimately too stupid to do that on their own.

I think my class for red 2.0 will be bard. It's time to go tryhard EQ again when perhaps our last chance for EQ pvp happens!

Red99 had like 500ish people at first, and it wasn't until the server's problems became apparent that players started leaving in droves. Unfortunately, while some of those problems could be fixed (awful custom resist system, no enforcement of rules), some of them can't (mentally ill VZTZ population making up half the playerbase).
