overall activity is dropping yes, but it was expected by everyone
they wouldn't have released a second server if it killed the first, lol no point
imo it's just a pass until it stabilizes between the two, bringing both players from HL2 to WW3 and the opposite (you get to know people, you bring them on HL2 or the opposite again it's basic social science man)
beside here's a graphic of HL2RP activity to prove my point :
not really
that bad considering the other players are on WW3RP which already contains more players than the actual HL2
final point : perhaps we won more players in the community that we lost some? which is a win in the end
bang
