Lightbulb Server not thriving anymore

Graph clearly shows that exp bonus removal was well disguised immigration reform.

Do the right thing: Please do your part to bring exp back by posting pictures of sad immigrants.

We can overcome.

seeing as pvp is my #1 drive to play i agree exp should of been left at what it was for most of the players.

im not a fan of grinding much and this would leave more time for pvp and less for pve if they wished.



put it back

The point is we had a healthy growing server. Now we don't. More people found the server fun and stuck around. I'm sure you would rather have more people to play with, regardless of how painful you want your exp to be.

um.

before January the red server was hitting 7%-10% of the blue server population.

with the addition of extra staff presence, some monthly pvp and pve events, and a little bit of love, the red server population peaked at 20% of blue population.

when the xp bonus was scaled back last month or so, the population dipped back into the 10%-13% of blue population range.

since that time the pop has been slowing going up again, and as i write this the pop is back at 20% of Blue server.

So the population has been halving and doubling? That doesn't sound right.

As a player you can notice the difference, before there were new guilds popping up, new faces etc, now it seems to be going the other way.

Remove exp loss from pvp death

if someone is new to eq pvp and wants to learn the ropes, clearly they will want to pvp as much as possible to get better. The current system punishes new players from pvp by costing them exp each time they die.

your current system
punishes players with pve
for pvping

red pop peaked at like 204 or something, then the next day or two the exp bonus was removed and it immediately dropped back down to like 140
