Just wondering how many of us will. I indeed will be starting brand new on the PvP server, the non exchange one for sure, as I think selling in game items is tantamount to a felony crime.
Comments
I'd have to do some research into the PvP mechanics, but I'd consider re-subing.

Oh, cruel fate, to be thusly boned. Ask not for whom the bone bones. It bones for thee.
I would defitnatly start a extremley dedicated character on the pvp server, no matter how bad the pvp was. Cause if everyone thinks it stinks, they will redo it in some other fashion.
CAN'T WAIT!!!
Krinn~
SHOW ME THE FACTS!
Me and about 10 people i know have been waiting for this since like June.
I will re-roll the day the servers go live.
Im just surprised it wasnt implemented sooner, seeing that the lore, setup, world, and the basis of the game revolv around Freeport against Qynos.
The new EQ2, better than ever befor !

I will come back and try it on Test server
If i think it's as crap as the empty arena fights or buggy and unbalanced as the /duels then WOW is still the best
I have a feeling though they will be empty because players ahve given EQ2 a chance already (SOE always screws up the first impression) and wont give it another chance. Current players don't want PVP.

If they use any common sense at all and start a rp-pvp server, i'll re-roll on there and take it seriously but if they just stick with their money whore pvp exchange server and "leety" pvp server, then I wont even bother.
As it stands now the top population servers are Antonia Bayle, Najena, Mistmore and Lucan D'Lere. Which means that 2 ouf the top 4 servers are RP servers, yet when initially thinking about PVP servers, they don't even think to accomodate an obviously very large portion of their player base. Yet more proof that SOE is completely out of touch with their own games.
Important Information regarding Posting and You
Actually, they have already anounced that PvP and PvE combat systems are independent of eachother.
So they can balence the pvp all they want and it would not change a thing while fighting a named.

AA, you've gone from fanboi to just a general ass. Shae brings up a valid point, one in which I agree with. There's a large community devoted to RP (see Shae's comments about the top servers), yet want to enjoy a PvP environment. Like Blizzard, I hope the SOE recognizes this and creates an RP-PvP set of servers as well.

Its the most populated server cuse its first on the list, so people cant be bothered to scroll down and just choose AB to create their characters? You best edit that out friend, else people will think you were taking them happy pills ^^
Take a look at all the mmorpg´s out there and try to prove your amazing theory.
Anyways, theres a simple reason why AB is the most populated, before launch alot of the old EQ1 roleplaying or european guilds organized themselfs to choose the same server, that server ended up beeing AB, and why the europeans? because SOE in their magnificent plan of world domination didnt think it was necessary for the game to have european servers at launch, so...no... its not because most of the EQ2 population has atention disorder and whent for the first server on the list.
All ur Mountain Dew is belong to me.
I just skimmed the announement but I think that there will be two PvP servers to start, one open the other exchange.
There was no mention of a PvP/RP server but rest assured it will boil down RP with player 1 RPing as a annoying brat while player 2 RP's as a person with anger displacement disorder and player 3 RPing as someone that complains about everything.

AA you should really apologize to Shae for that childish remark. I was amazed when I checked your age under user info. I would have thought someone your age would not be so petty.
Support Bacteria, its the only culture some people have.
Well Ico, I've always considered myself Captain ass. Thanks for the promotion and it certainly takes one to know one.
The reason for my post was I am tired of people saying "this shows that SOE blah blah" after every problem they have with the game, from taking out shards to the innocuous and not even accomplished as of yet non RP-PVP servers. I don't think most PVP'ers give a rat's rump whether the server is designated RP or not, nor do most of the people on the RP servers to begin with.
Hm, because of the whole "xp for player kills" thing i might give EQ2 a try. For real this time. Depends on the population of the PvP servers though.

I am the flipside of the coin on which the troll and the fanboy are but one side.
Click on make a new character. You'll notice AB is actually at the very bottom of the list but the population is listed as heavy. I think most people that join the game want to be on a server with an already high population.
Edit: Forgot to mention I'll be making a new toon on the regular PVP server NOT the exchange enabled server. Also they are still working on the whole gaining xp from other players because they don'r want people to buddy camp and level up.
In America I have bad teeth. If I lived in England my teeth would be perfect.
Jodokai, i understand that complex thought is something beyond you at the momment so i will try not to say any big words.
Many many guilds organize themselfs before an mmorpg is launch, take a look at the number of vanguard and DnD guilds currently in existence, as i said, many of the roleplaying guilds from EQlive organized themselfs to join the same server, how did they manage this superhuman feat? well its simple, they got organized and waited till launch, then the leaders took a look at the server list and said.... AB it is.... Same with many of the european guilds.
Now concider that there are only 2 roleplaying servers since launch, those same 2 servers are the ones with the heaviest loads, wich despite your ravings, is a simple fact to check, log on at several diferent hours, and check the loads, AB and LD and always the heaviest despite the time checked. Two servers for arguably the largest roleplaying community in mmorpg´s (eqlive) to migrate to, can you now wrap your mind around that?
And your massive research to sustain your claims is the Bria server from SWG? wow, im impressed, out of the dozens of mmorpg´s. Now, take WoW for example, do you know wich are the servers that have the heaviest loads? in WoW europe its the 2 pve roleplaying servers, do you know why? because despite what many say, roleplayers are still numerous in mmorpg´s and they tend to play on the same servers, so theres your reason why AB and LD are always the heaviest servers.
P.S one more thing, and try not to faint.... you do know that theres alot of roleplayers in bria also... and you do know that for many months bria was the only server showing heavy load, wich tended to atrackt new players that didnt want to play in ghost servers.... so many reasons and so many factors, but i guess that according to you... its cuse its the first server on the list, wich by the way.... it isnt, try to create a new character, AB will show at the end of the list.
Oh and by the way, insulting someone by use if his internet handle is not very bright, i doubt you even know what jodokai means young grasshopper, but you do have a way with a stick, a very blunt one, so i guess your not at a total loss

Again you make one ignorant comment after the other, you are realy not doing yourself any favors here.
"Actually a lot of guilds just say: "Go to the first one alphabetically".
Read my post, when i mention roleplaying guilds, why would they join non roleplaying servers if they can join the ones marked roleaplaying but then again, stupid stupid stupid
"Right so basically no basis is fact, because I don't believe you check every server at odd times. So you're guessing. For your information (not that you'll read this anyway, you tend to by pass the facts, as they make it harder for you to make things up) there have been more instances of Antonica on Mistmoore that Lucan every time I'm on."
So... your able to log on on 2 diferent servers at the same time and check how many instances antonica has at that momment? another stupid comment on your part, when you casn easily log on at U.S and then at E.U primetimes check the server loads then compare. If you took the time to do that as i did, you would see that while mistmore is light at european primetime, AB is medium, and more often than not, AB is heavy with mistomore medium at u.s primetime. Why do i mention european primetime? because thats also the tiome australian players are online, and AB has a massive community of both, seeing as there are not australian servers and that the european servers were launch a long time after EQ2 came out. Wrap your tinny mind around that if you can.
"Sorry but you're full of crap. Having just been playing WoW, I have hardly ever had to wait in a queue to get on a PvPRP server. Yet the regular PvP I wait all the time. Again, back up your statements with some facts."
Read my post again my reading impared friend, do i say pvprp? or do i say pve rp? ill take the second for 200$ Alex. Both RP PVE servers in WoW europe are the ones with the heaviest loads and longest queues pf all the game servers, thats a well known fact, dunno how it is in WoW U.S.
Again you show that keeping quiet would make you look alot smarter.
"Now I'm going to try to get you to see logic: You say people were attracted to Bria simply because there were more people, well how did all those people get there? I mean they just appeared when the server went live? So Bria started with 5000 people magically on the server while the rest started with none right? That's how it worked?"
Again you show that you simply skim over posts in your mad rush to enlighten us with your marvelous dung. If you read it you would notice that i said that for a VERY LONG time bria was the only server showing a modicom of activity in SWG, maybe because of the first C.U? would you think? its beyond me, but Bria was one of the only servers not dead on the water, as such, NEW PLAYERS coming into the game would go for that one, because they didnt want to play on dead servers.
Wow, you make it so easy for me that i dont even have to try that hard Jodokai.
"Actually I do, but I'm glad I got to teach you about yours."
Oh i knew mine, beeing a big lone ranger fan when i was a kid, but let me enlighten your stupidity yet again, when tonto (wish means fool in spannish) adresses the lone ranger as ke-mo sah-bee, he meant friend or trusty scout, but it depended on the way you ponounced the words, like many native american laguages, apache is all about how you say it than how it is spelled, ill leave you with that.
