Maybe it's due to the beginning of Summer Vacation, or maybe it's the holiday weekend, but it seemed to me that there were more people playing in the last three days than I have ever seen before.
I spent most of the weekend in T Steppes and at times, I was in competitation with two or three other people/duos/groups for the same mobs! I also ran through a lot of areas that almost always have mobs up and often this weekend they were empty.
Also noticed a lot more on-going chatter in ooc.
I'm on Toxx... so what about on your server, is business booming?
