I'll try to keep this organized and not ramble but i have so much on my mind.
First of all,anyone knows me, knows that i do not like Smedley nor anyone else making most of the bonehead decisions at SOE nor do i easily hand out two thumbs up.
I have disliked their direction so much ,i thought i would never again set foot in one of their games.
I have to say i am happy i rejoined EQ2 TL servers,the overall vibe,atmosphere has been really positive.
I was in the game frustrated from the usual lag and game crash,i just thought my god all these years,same old nothing has changed.Well enter a DB gm and tells the server "we are looking into the lag issues".I immediately thought ,ya whatever,sure you are,however fast forward 2 days and seems they actually did fix the lag and i have had no more server crashes.
BTWthe VERY obvious memory leaks have been plaguing SOE games for MAN yyears,well they actually came onto the server and told us an update was issued for the memory leaks from December.
I have to say ,they have made me very happy,perhaps some new direction without Smedley,i really don't know but FINALLY seems like a business that cares about their product and player base.
I give DB games and their new EFFORT/direction two thumbs up,you add that to a pleasant experience in game and it is just good stuff all around.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

There is a big outcry from the hardcore playerbase though. There are people who got to level 50 very quickly and have liked 200 hours /played. And the server has been around for 20-25 days only! For people like me who can only play for like 5-10 hours a week, I couldn't care less. It's not like I will ever compete with the 30+ hours a week crowd.

i think the issue is that a lot of people are already capped and a lot of them want the next expansion already. I hear everyone below lvl30 won't be allowed to vote which are he people are more likely to vote No.
The servers will eventually get to the latest expansion but it will take at least a year or more which should be enough to enjoy the eq2 content. It's all new for me and these servers let me group all the time and experience content at a more gated pace.
the live servers feel dead for new comers and they are just one looong solo experience.
i don't think we will get Mercs or any of the new classes before their respective expansion. They said also that if there are 2-3 yes votes to expansion on the first vote they will increase the expansion vote time to 90days to slow it down. I think we may get the two adventure packs 30 days after launch instead of DOF if the current vote is successful.
