I don't think it's a good idea to push people directly towards the action server if they're more action-oriented; that's depriving them (and the server) of the potential to learn to enjoy roleplay.

Amendment to my last post:

There is not such a thing as unfairness in the action server, as there is no RP NOR COMPETITION whatsoever.

a lvl 2 has everything to gain from a lvl 20 character as they can provide crafted equipment and high end crafting material to rush through crafting.

I cannot overstate how critical the lack of crafting items is on the action server.

Bring your lvl 20 characters. push to shove, theyll hovel in mist camp while the lvl 2 will keep dying in the crypts.

If you arent playing the action server for the challenge of it, since you want loot & craft & help from level 20s, why not just play your characters on the test server instead and skip to 20 yourself?

Then why do we even have the action server?

Because that's not what the test server is for
Crafting is not fun. But it is necessary to tackle the later dungeons especially since there is almost no one around to party with. And dungeons are almost all max spawn always since no one hits them.

You could rename them the "introvert server" and the "extrovert server".  Takes the RP judgment out of the whole thing.

It is for console players that may not have access to a keyboard.

Also, due to personal reasons more or lessa already explained for everyone, my gaming schedule is chaotic of late. I simply cannot compromise with a group of strangers, with their own schedules and problems with anything. The action server is a great escape valve for me, without needing to explian people that Im entering and exiting afk (many times in the middle of a dungeon).
