So I'm currently calling Cookie Canyon home. There are neither cookies nor canyons, but I moved there because I had found a quiet server with a small population of quiet people. And it was good. I was happy.
Well, the shine's starting to wear off. We got an influx of folks from crowded servers, a lot of whom migrated to escape the attention of mods. Now most days I can handle the sudden chatter on Global and Say, but there are times when it is downright annoying. Grating even. I don't mind company, seeing other players is nice, but some of the chatter hurts my brain. There have been instances where I was one step from starting to rant, basically a "hey you, kids! get off my lawn!" sort of deal. I know full well I don't own the server, but I was there before a lot of these players and I'm starting to feel boxed in. I'd love to see some mods on Cookie, oh, yes.
I play to relax, unwind, and lower my blood pressure. I generally keep myself to myself and I'd like to think myself a polite player as well. I know I can ignore chat, but sometimes you can't.
Now I'm not planning on jumping ship just yet, but since we've got folks from all over, I thought I'd ask out of curiosity.
Who's got a quiet server?
Please note that I don't want to see role spam. I don't need to see people bypassing the filter to fill the chat with blocked words either. It has to be NA. It cannot be Wind Star or Night-Something-or-other either. Too crowded. Heck, I started on Wind Star and I don't want to go back. I picked Cookie for the quiet, but the cookie's starting to crumble. I'd like a good balance of quiet and liveliness.
So help an older player out, eh? If I ever have to jump, where should I jump to? This is speculation on my part, really. I'm indulging my curiosity without having to jump servers.
