- They are aware of the population decreases on the regular servers due to hardcore. They don't want to make hardcore permanent. They have other tentative and similar ideas to the hardcore server. (Perhaps other temporary "league style" ideas?)
- MacOSX shifting over to wine soon
- Night Revels will receive patch and go live mid-October. It may or may be an official "update."

It's been frustrating finding people to raid and do high skull reapers at cap since hardcore opened and new EPLs were released.  Earlier this week I started tracking population numbers at the start of my prime playtime (7pm eastern), wondering if other servers are fairing better than my own.

-- Level 30 toons (Level 21-29 toons) Sep 3-5 --

Argo: 21 (45), 30 (45), 28 (35)
Cannith: 28 (47), 15 (53), 18 (45)
Gland: 46 (39), 40 (40), 40 (29)
Khyber: 21 (36), 18 (27), 14 (41)
Orien: 16 (32), 29 (30), 23 (29)
Sarlona: 22 (30), 25 (34), 19 (36)
Thelanis: 16 (36), 19 (38), 23 (35)
Wayfinder: 1 (4), 0 (3), 1 (2)

Hardcore: Skipped Tuesday, 470 (Wed), 452 (Thu)

Summary: There's a drought of level 30 toons. Time to put RXP on hold and ride the EPL train.

Holy shit, and I thought Ghallanda was bad. RIP Thelanis

And if you think I'm a douchebag, that's fine. We'll find you a home.

There's room for everybody in G-Land.

Mabar is fun and all, but I'd have to see what the new stuff is.  I have plenty of augments already.   Hardcore shuts down November 16th.   Depending on when Mabar ends you might be able to get your runs in after HC is over.  Also, I think HC will start to die down before it closes.   In the final 3-4 weeks People will have accomplished their goals, or die and be out of time to start over and make it happen.

Theres a difference between choosing not to support SSG and being poor

I play on Thelanis.  Since coming back from my extended break, it is not uncommon to see a total of 2 LFM's up from 1-30.  Server feels dead.
