As i said:Dev's let some bugs in and stuff that broke economy/game balance; but it's players that took advantage of it all.

Sneaks are included in all that.But for the very first days there was not that many sneaks, because you needed a faction to buy stealthboys, and everyone was busy leveling.We lost a lot of people during the first days, then we lost even more when Ninjitsu Masters became a thing.

People who try to 'balance' the server with their half-arsed faction hopping are the bane of the server.
We need serious measures in place to ensure balance.
Have population caps for the different factions, so if people want to play, they have to join another faction and not just pile on top the already winning swarm faction.
Don't make faction switching so easy - if you change faction, you must start from scratch - it is NOT hard to farm pixels.

Make pvp quick and readily available - instant action and no 30 minute wait times.

Wasn't it rerolls?.. :7

But to be serious, no amout of a great analysis and finger pointing will fix the problems server currenty facing, what's done is done. What server needs is help, not forum pvp. Unfortunately the latter is more popular.

Except for making a nuisance for players to play with friends and comrades this solves any of above mentioned problems how?
Nobody is stopping them from having alts, nobody is stopping them from teaming up factions in fights.
How would you propose to fix that?
Make items binded to a specific character like in WoW and make autoaim at everyone who's not in their faction?
Or even better, make ZC like arenas, avaliable to enter only if you have N amount of players?
How bout just let make people play only in turn based perhaps?
I understand that you want to help, but cmon, you can do better than this.

Faction A wins fights a few days in a row, Faction A increases in population size and continues to win via swarm. Some of Faction B rage quts. Some of faction A quits due to boredom, some forms Faction C. Faction B wins a few fights against the depleteled Faction A and the newly populated Faction C. Faction B increases in size due to victories and continues to win via swarm. Some of Faction A and C rage quit. Some of Faction B leaves to form Faction D.

Overall server population size drops continuously.

Fix the problem of first swarm, fix the server.

Save cheerleader, save world.

Well actually, you dont need to change factions......you just need chars in a few factions. If i see there is 21 online, i log in church and see we are 17....il go play in a diferent faction. It's really the only way to avoid swarming and to balance the teams to ensure everyone can play. I think everyone can agree that a 11vs10 is much more fun than a 17vs4.

Then have 2 factions and be done with it.
