A new trend

[CrimsonSeraphim]

I'd just like to point out that over the last 2 weeks I've been building a new character (its been about 6 months since my last new one).
The other day it occurred to me that the majority of people I was grouping with (levels 7-11) didn't know the content and weren't old pros... in other words... they were new players.
There appears to be a wave of players who have yet to reach the end game who are new. Any one else noticed this?

I have seen some new players on Mabar (though the overall population is down). That's why I think the merger will help keep everyone able to find a group. Good job turbine. Just block out the whining as this is one decision you got right. Execution unfortunately has not been your strong suit..(crosses fingers)..

What!?! That can't possibly be true! Everyone [sic] knows that the game is dying!!! DYING!!!! DOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!

Over the past 2-3 weeks I have been playing 3 new characters and have been running into groups quite often with new players as well, not just alts of old players. Maybe Turbine has reissued some form of advertisement somewhere or gotten some recent review, I dont know as I don't keep up with that stuff, but I have played with alot of new people on Argonnessen.

Argo is already getting crammed with newcomers. My guild has absorbed friends of guildies already, and even a few "newbies" that impressed us as good-humored (you need a VERY thick skin in my guild).

I am amazed every time I wander into a STK, WW or TR PUG and no one knows what they are doing...

Sometimes I am sad...
