Camelot Grab Bag Q&A

Mythic's Sanya Thomas has once again posted her weekly Grab Bag Q&A on the Camelot Herald. This week, she addresses questions about death penalties, their name-changing policy, and more. An excerpt:
Q: What does Mythic mean by (population) and (underpopulation)? The context is in regards to the fee reduction schedule posted in 1.70W.

A: We look at a number of factors. Raw population is just the beginning. We also look at population over level 30, the population of players over level 40, RVR activity in terms of realm points exchanged, RVR activity in terms of territory changing hands, relics, the number of people in RVR zones, realm population, realm activity as it related to realm population, and more.

I know I'm dodging your real question, which is (what's the formula?) Our concern with releasing the actual formula is that it wouldn't take much for an organized group to have an unwanted impact. Please rest assured that we take a lot of factors into consideration, and that we recalculate the numbers on a weekly basis.
