One would think that, if one were judging the health of a PVP server, one would not be worried as much about the population of Illium and Thayd, but the population of Blighthaven. It's a PVP server, go out and kill each other! That's what it's for. That's what world content is like, it's often kicked off by players. One would think that guilds on Lumenai and Warhound would be knocking each other over trying to throw PVP parties on each others' doorsteps. If they're not, why would anyone stay on a PVP server, even in the best of times? Carbine can institute PVP events, possibly, given time. But open world PVP has to come from the players first and foremost. They need more of this, and less of this thread expounding the virtues of Jabbit and the self-admitted weaknesses of their own scene.

But Subterfuge and Hindsight didn't. It's not like Warhound is as big or has as large a pool of potential raiders as Entity (carebears live to multiply). That's a big difference. Those guilds stuck it out on Warhound. I don't hear Warhound folks talking poorly about their server as often, either. I hear them lamenting the lack of world PVP, but the Farside fights are pretty well advertised. That did a LOT to fluff the server's reputation in the week or so after the megaserver launch.

He's actually got a very good point here. The situation isn't the same at all. I myself am one of the people who actually transferred to Evindra with about a dozen other people while Evindra had people tranferring off. Evindra only survived because people could transfer to it. Nobody can get to Luminai, and that's all they want: for people to be allowed to get there.

{| style="width: 100%;" Ok, after a quick review, to get back to your original point Punjoke, and the purpose of my response to it:

The question is: How much does the one-way transfer affect what's going on here. I now understand your point— I was stating that Evindra wasn't saved by two-way transfers, but you're countering that Evindra didn't need two-way transfers as much as Luminai does because the latter is a PVP server reliant by nature on mass community participation in an instanced gameplay scenario. And this is why they're different situations. Correct?

I totally missed that there was a moxie taken in filter  :mellow: There is only one with moxie actually. Balm of Everpool EDIT: Standing now at the "PvE AH" in Illium (Jabbit), the zone says 63ppl

Awwwww. Did you see Tony's body language? He was squirming as he read the script, and was struggling to look at the camera. I *almost* felt sorry for him. At 9:30 tonight I went from the Spaceport AH through the crafting zone to the Legion's Way AH. I saw FOUR people. I spent all night (while queueing) trying to repopulate WBHunting circle as a PvE channel. It used to be so full you had to wait for the leader to kick an inactive to get your frineds in. I managed 4 new people over the 3 hours I was on. When I logged off (half past midnight) I did a /who and got 38 names in total, 12 of whom were 50. Doesn't feel healthy to me. I'm looking forward to the resolution plan when they finally come out of their bunker.
