Needs to be more "Good" classic co hosted US imo. They are in real demand right now and nobody can find any except a couple like classicco and 1-2 others but hosted eu.

LoC is a really bad example though.
For starters the owner of LoC screwed up bigtime. The EU server did have more players at some point, but because he screwed up and resetted both servers a lot of people quit.
Afterwards when everyone had to start over during X-mas the droprates were shockingly high people got +5 gear in about a week, same goes for sockets.
When the US started to fill up with people they didn't have quite the same experience because the droprates were back down to being (Classic Low).
And thus you'd be better off starting on the USA because the EU was spoiled with people who had atleast 5 SDGS in their gears.
