I am currently roaming several planes of Norrath, though Fennin Ro is my
primary home. I don't have significant problems with any of them.

Aye, this will continue to be a problem in a world that rewards combat
heavily, especially if you are a hybrid profession.

I've been on Fennin Ro since the release (and played there in P4). I've
never had a problem with it. Most of the hype seemed to be that people just
bottlenecked in the areas immediately around cities, rather than branching
out a bit. Also, I don't spend a great deal of time in the dungeons
(Blackburrow, Crushbone, etc) and I've seen them VERY crowded on Fennin at
prime time.

Newest server is Erollisi Marr. Second newest is Rodcet Nife.
