this server is a victim of its own success

And what happens when people finally hit 60? When thousands of people are trying to farm for the same rep or mats? The situation doesn't change if the current one isn't addressed.

This is a good point. I am guessing that you wont be able to farm anything, because every higher lvl zone will have like 500 people.

There is no room to be nice on this server, if you can be an utter evil @#^& you should be. Don't think for a second that the other guy will be nice back, if you let him live he will &*%$# you the first chance he gets and wipe his $#@$ cock all over your finest curtains.

Kill everyone, always. Eventually one of you gets tired of the pointless gankwar and moves on, leaving the area to your own faction alone. Even though they are few, there are actually optional leveling zones for every level range. So if one zone is turning into a hopeless gankfest you can move on to any of the 1-3 other zones within your level range.

Taking it slow, enjoying the game, staying behind the mass wave and im sure ill do just fine.
Reminds me how yesterday Horde stormed Lakeshire from Althers Mill while we were just about to complete our Keeshan escort. Well, we got overrun in 5sec and ofcourse failed the quest. Yes it feels bitter that i have to go there again, but moments like these you will remember and are what we missed and why we are on this server first place.

Bloody 15 seconds and we would have been cleared to the town

Best option I found so far is to find a remote corner with a good amount of mobs, then grind them.

Beats constantly having to fight horde/waiting for mobs to spawn.

That sounds forking awesome. Imagine the giant battles. It might actually be like it was back in the day.

That's what I'm doing also. There are always some mobs that people don't need for a quest or the quest is too hard to people don't do it, or your camp spot is not on an optimal place so people go the clustered place while you're gaining a level per 1-2 hours.

that sounds awesome only if you want to fight, not when you want to herb

If you're getting ganked and camped. Just look forward until you're 60, gearing up etc.

You can just take pride in ganking the douchebags that ganked you.

I don't really understand your problem. If the big pop annoys you, why don't you go to another server? There are several out there/coming out soon. Most other servers aren't worse scripted than this one (sometimes even better) but simply lack the population and maelstrom it creates. Hype is 95% of Nostalrius' success.
The big population is the major thing going for Nostalrius. If you don't like it, other servers are better suited to you and would welcome you with open arms.

Do they plan to keep this really fast time line? That's the only red flag for me. It only gives the server a life span of a year for new content.
