well.. where do i start here.. ok.. righty..

wasnt mythic's justification of hibernia/exc NOT getting the /level 30 command down to performance in rvr.. i.e. rp count and relic count?..

if thats the case.. erm.. when all relics get reset with frontiers expansion.. will we then qualify? :) or are the rulebooks gonna be rewritten again.. hehe

not *entirely* sure of the requirements for the lvl 30 thing.. but by god we must be close to it now.. never mind frontiers..

lets see what happens eh? :)

anyone with exact info on this be welcome to add to post coz i am a little bit confused tbh.. :)

its up to GoA, not Mythic..

edit: oh yes... theydont need to justify why they dont give any realm /level 30... rather just justify why they give it to some.

Pretty sure the /lvl 30 command is related to realm population rather than realm points.

With /level 30 SD will be deserted and CM flooded.

Not even to think about the ppl w/o a lvl 50, need to struggle trough 20-30 too now :O

Well we're so underpopulated that i think /level 40 would be nice for two weeks. But as always we wont get it, because if all realms had equal populations they would have much more work to fix the realm differences.
So they wont and let ppl leave the game.. hehhe.. another reason is TOA but thats obvious..

we may have the lowest population but i dont think we suffer that much for it.

With this morning's patch, we have removed /level 30 from most servers and realms. The exceptions are Lancelot/Hibernia and Lancelot/Midgard, and we hope to phase the command out in those two realms as soon as possible. While /level 30 was a boon to players already established on an underpopulated realm, our experience has demonstrated that it did not provide enough long term incentive for a player to permanently move to an underpopulated realm.

We're not saying that we're done worrying about this issue by any means, only that we've concluded that /level 30 as we had it implemented wasn't the solution. One thing we will do in the meantime, as we consider all of the possible future options and solutions, is install a "New User Redirect" system.

Right now, with our various free trials and numerous Camelot products in the retail chain, we are experiencing a *strong* influx of players entirely new to the game. In version 1.69, every user with a new installation of Camelot will be greeted by a pop up window with our suggested server and realm to play on. Via this pop up box, we will encourage truly new users to go to our underpopulated realms to play. If a new player does not wish to go to our suggested server, they have that option - they will simply be taken to the server select screen, like everyone else. Even if only a very small percentage of our new players each week take the suggestion, it will result in long term population increases for the target servers. Once people are established, they don't often move. (This was one of the many reasons /level 30 wasn't entirely successful - the newcomers would play for awhile, and go back "home.")

Since this plan to direct our new users to a specific server will be visible only to brand new players (ALL brand new players, as opposed to /level 30, which was generally only known to Herald readers), we do not plan to make regular Herald announcements when the target server changes.

Please note that the /level 20 command is still a feature of the game on all servers, as a reward to our players that have reached level fifty and no longer want or need to experience the "newbie" levels of the game.

As always, we will continue to monitor the population and RVR data from the servers, and make adjustments as needed. And watch this space for future plans!

So that doesnt work.. lolz.. nice solution.. hmmzz it isnt a solution..
hahahaha.. lolz ..sorry this so funny and stupid..

"Even if only a very small percentage of our new players each week take the suggestion, it will result in long term population increases for the target servers. "

Yeah in 2400 maybe... haha.. well it shows again that they dont care for server imbalances.. as i said in an earlier post :

", because if all realms had equal populations they would have much more work to fix the realm differences. "

A startup screen fix is easier i guess ...:clap:
