A lot of peoples only exp in ToA now, it means less peoples in "old" zones so it's easier for the beastmen to get control of an area. At least that's what I think.
I've noticed that a lot lately over half of the out lands are in beastmen control now on my server. Are there just not enough new players to replace the ones spending all their time in TOAU?
I have seen on Odin that the places where people exp are still under nations' control. The only exception is Qufim. It really sucks when you try to outpost warp everywhere. I guess if you have any items that are activated by being outside of your nation's control it could benefit slightly.

No. The new players are also in ToAU. I cannot tell you how many PUPs I've seen who's main job is only at level 30 and they're also just rank 1...
