Well, as it goes unlocked, people who are refreshing the server list going "open, open, open" and then immediately pile on, will push it back over the population limit.
However, we are heading out of the peak of prime time and I expect the server will be available again soon as more people are logging out for the night.
Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding.

Server is down?

lvl 50 Ice/Dev Blaster
lvl 50 ill/Rad Controller
lvl 50 Emp/Rad Defender
lvl 50 Claws/Regen Scrapper (Retired*)
lvl 50 Earth/Rad Controller
know how you solve it? Take the last 500 peeps who joined the server with new toons and move them to another, after that do it again if you have to. I been here since inception on the same server so is unfair that i get screwed.

The type of snide responses you get would lead most people in your position to just say screw it and not inform people of what is going on...

Apparently neither do you anymore.
If they can't offer us server space, let them offer us free transfers then.

I don't know that those people forcibly moved would be very happy about that solution either.
Folks, the bottom line is that we've accommodated more people playing than we ever have before. In the last Double XP, the server would lag out and simply drop you or people would log in disgust over a poor play experience. The gameplay experience is significantly improved over that and with significantly more people playing.
Yes, server transfers are something we will be looking at. However, they are there so people can play where they want to play. We don't want to force someone to not be able to play with their friends. While it is certainly less than optimal to resort to a server cap for a few peak hours on a double XP weekend, we feel that allowing people to move where they want for 99.9% of the rest of the time is a very nice feature.
Ultimately, we will continue to review how the service is run and make the choices we feel will benefit our customers as best as possible. Hopefully more of you will agree than not. Again, our thanks for your continued patronage and support.

Please. Server transfers are there for you to make an extra buck. It was seen that transferring to freedom and virtue was profitable, so it wasn't halted for sake of the server populations. Now it lands us here.
I still think you guys should look for a way to clone freedom, as you do to AP, RWZ, and Powerlevel Island. If I remember correctly, another NCSoft game has something similar (Guildwars) so it may be worth a look. We all know on a peakish peakity peak times with 2xp not everyone will be able to get on the game. However we all still can get on here and vent frustrations.

I think my biggest problem here is that there was a decision to "lower" the population count for Freedom and Virtue, in comparison to the other servers, in order to preserve good gameplay. Why put up an arbitrary limit if you're just going to swirl it down willy nilly? Either the server structure handles the traffic, or it doesn't. People can still log in, see "hey, this is laggy", and they have the "choice" of leaving for other servers, or just sticking it out.
I think relaxing that restriction was the "win all" solution, even if there's some suffering for local lag concerns. Heck, we're here to test your server build. Especially with the "PL" zones being the areas maxed out, the natives here being locked out in lieu of those schmoes is what hurts the perception of the native the most.
Thanks for kickin' the cap and letting us get in, even if it's chunky. And thanks for taking the time to answer our concerns, LH.
