Camlann is dying

Look at the server, less and less people every day, and the trend seems to continue. It looks like the server is going to continue down and become like the US servers.

Why is it dying?

What can be done to save the server?

High levels going around ganking lower levels, who after getting ganked x times, decide that their L50 RR5 main on Excal/Pryd/Broc or whatever is more fun to play and go back.

It is the same as on the Dreds, the high levels dissuade the lower levels from levelling up by killing them repeatedly, leaving only the powergamers and the stubborn on the server.

Thats the whole idea of the server, the people who are leaving are doing so because for some obscure reason they thought it would be different.
The US has had pvp for a while now so most people should have known what pvp would have been about.

the idea for PvP was to guild fights between hgih levels

Not a lvl 50 chanter killing lowbies who are trying to xp

They high lvls brought in on themelves. They gank greys, and they pay the consequence of an empty server.

I didnt gank a single grey until 5 of em teamed against me.

PvP = Kill All You Can See for fun.

I am not saying that i necessarily agree with people moaning about leaving, just that i can understand it. Whenever my group gets wiped out I get pissed off a bit, but usually shrug it off fairly fast. Then again as a mage on the rvr servers I am used to eating grass ;)

To be honest, if i were in one of the high level guilds, I would only fight the other high level guilds, just because i like a challenge. If people consider using a fg of 50's to wipeout 4 greens a challenge, all the best to them...

pvp isnt about high level guild fights ... cos not everyone likes to get to 50 its the most boring waste of time ever almsot as bad as crafting .... the game can be enjoyed at any level and this is where so many people go wrong and wehre mythic have gone wrong ... i will not on principal get on a damn list to xp at fins or summit like that its just pathetic .. pvp to me is to be able to get rps etc without having to have a level 50 char like you do on a main just to be able to stand a chance ... its like why bgs i sso popular

The idea of a pvp server is exactly what it says, player verses player.
Lowbies getting ganked by level 50's is part of the server, it has always been a part of the US servers and anyone playing on camlann that moans only has himself to blame.
We all knew it would happen from what the yanks posted about their forums, so if you didn't like the idea of it happening there why play at all here?

Nah, but he was complaining about the drop in population, so I explained to him. I couldn't care less if people think ganking greys is fun as long they don't epxect these greys to stick around for the duration.

So the conclusion is that the repeated grey ganking is what keeps most new people from joining the server. That shouldnt be a big suprice really.

But lack of grey people to gank cant be the reason to why many level 50ies has quit the server. Why is it boring to be level 50 in PvP ?

And people cant reroll, then they get wiped..

Therefor, they reroll back on their old servers :D

there are no zones where you can be sure that you will find enemies, except for popular exp spots, and not even they are nowadays ^^

Only other place where you find enemies sometimes is hib frontier (and ofc some guild raids in other frontiers), but then again you have the same prob like on other servers: you go there with 1 grp, you get zerged by 2-3 grps. You come back with 2 grps, and zerg some poor group, or even worse, there is a ~4fg zerg ^^

I had some funny fights there, even with 3 different guilds fighting each other (although usually the one that is more in the middle dies pretty fast).

Its dying bc daoc is all about numbers.
On normal servers the zergs are at least of somewhat equal size thats why they are slightly more fun maybe?
Genious of the 3(4?)(5?) biggest guilds to form an NAP.

Limit total members to 100 per alliance/guild.

Respect to WLz and NP tho going solo against a 500+ zerg alliance must be tough....


Zerg me ;)

And just so you are aware: If GOA is like any normal business company, they will of course close the server down, if they can’t attract customers to it. Then they could use it as a PvE-server, much better idea.

Thanks to the population decline I can finally get groups and xp in peace!! Not levelled so much in ages.

Also I think a lot of people are getting bored of ganking greys - and maybe a bit wary as some people have high level mains that they log in to gank pks asses.

Course there's always some annoying purple enchanter going around killing every grey thing in sight, just not as many as before :)

Problem is pvp is not really an option for getting xp because of the silly 15 minute no reward timer, but oh <looks at US patch notes> they are changing it to 5 minutes!! That'll be more fun!

Can't we call in the pest controllers to wipe out the 500,000,000,000,000 chanters wandering around, blowing crap out of everything, like some insane old terrorist?

P'raps the care bears could get them to chill out a bit, or something - so little, so soft, yet so damn angry!

Gombur, you need to start splashing around some hugs in here...

edit - oh joy, it seems my sig has gone a bit odd...

Jesus, with people like yourself playing on Calmen I'm glad I never bothered.

Every post of yours on these boards contains some profanity any 13 year old would be proud of and is usually derogative towards another person/ group.

All the pussies have left? This pussy never went on it to avoid people like you. Other "pussies" have left because of people like you. What will you say when you're all alone on an empty server? I'm sure it'll be something along the lines of "we're the hardcore elite pvp pwners," but as other people have said, PvP DAoC style ain't that skilled or anywhere near as complex as other games.

not great one for flames, but arrow you really are a moron, please never log onto a real server.

what your to thick to understand is due to people like you, people get bored means less people to play with or fight then you will spend your sad little life walking around the woods with nothing to do, then they will change the server to something people do want and youll be whinning about how they closed it down. Why would anyone with any sense want to spend hours trying to level to say 11 being ganked all time by some purp or group. now you say this is what pvp is all about, but people who do quit are not pussys they just got more sense than you.
more useful having a high level on main server than a lv50 on pvp
