World Chat Negativity

[Irin19]

We need a system similar to the old Counterstrike system... you could post a vote up and if enough people voted for a boot - it happened.

If you think the legendary servers are empty now between all the boots and everyone else keeping their traps shut - well, it would be a ghost town!

Well thats ok because these are the same people that like playing on a small server, sometimes I think they'd prefer to be on a server by themselves!

Yeah, I spent a whole hour and a half facerolling OD t2c 6 man for 65 content on a server I didnt even know was gonna exist!


But real talk, they need to merge the LS, the servers have populations of 100. I'm aware Minas Morgul just dropped, but what was the excuse during 65 cap when the servers were sitting at 150 players a day? Thats not a healthy community. Mostly the trolling just comes from being bored with little to know talk in World chat. Literally, I can play for an hour and sit at the same tab with little to no chat going by.

They need to close the servers, do you honestly think another 80 players will do any kind of difference? I hope they wont waste any more resources on this failed project.

I can't really disagree, at least after L85 cap. Everything else is too new to be really nostalgic about, and LS population is only half of what it was even at the very tail end of Moria. I'll miss some of the community, but it's a shame that population is so low that we can only support 1 T2 raiding kin, and they're unpalatable to a lot of people.

That said, I have no real desire to go back to the grind of live servers, and anyone who's tired of the LS can always go, so I don't know what closing the servers would accomplish. Maybe allow free transfers off of the LS to live servers and merge Ithil and Anor for the people who want to stick around. Being VIP-only it can probably pay for itself for a little while yet.

If you keep playing on LS, grind back again to you. You need accept it, or stop running from it. Meging LS servers just continue something what can't survive. Imagine if they hit level cap (sooner or later) as all other servers. Why new player will choice Anor or Ithil?

Level 100 will be good, I can see RoR being 3 months (hopefully with gold class items), 95 being 2 months, and then 100-105 being 4 or even 5 months. That's the last best set of raids this game has. Also, I agree, but theres a couple more T2 kins starting up on Anor, German/Russian kins and then Mirage for US/EU Players.

If they cant sustain a healthy population it just wont be any good. Lets say they merge anor and ithil, you will peak maybe if ur lucky 200 players.. who cares about t2 raiding kins, you are a minority lol.

I hope they open free transfers to normal servers so I can take my character to a normal one..

And btw, you can still do these raids on normal servers for free!
