im sure the feeling is somewhat reciprocal ;)

[Pokesan]

how important do you feel for this ?

monopolizing rog epic's markets for a year or two solid, 3 years ago...

[Calabee]

seeing i had more plat then 5% the server will ever see or have in it's entire lifetime isnt too bad a nerd accomplishment

[Pokesan]

my heart is sad for you

[jaybone]

Calabee has to find a new RMT scheme. Sure it won't take him long.

[nyclin]

because people only accumulate wealth to RMT, right? nobody has ever geared/powerlevelled an alt, or just made money for the sake of seeing how high they can go

You're right, he'd be long banned by now.

Calabee you're a piece of shit, the real scum of the server... ironically one of the people who held me up on my rogue epic with a bunch of shit talk.

Jeremy got it right when he summed Calabee up. The dude is a disgrace. How the fuck is he still here?

Maybe I should also bring up how you stole a bunch of high-value spells from Fusion guild bank at the start of Kunark, Calabee.

You are a piece of shit. And you're also a creep who mercilessly tries to buy your way into the hearts and e-vaginas of every female you can(with pixels). I'm honestly shocked that you're not too embarrassed to play here at this point. Most of the people who attain the level of faggotry you have, Calabee, have disappeared (see Minyin 2.0).

[Swish]

Nope that's Europe, 3.30am here...and you seem rustled about having your history dug up.

[Calabee]

false one sided fake history at the very best, so rustled

3:30am, WEEK DAY, and you trying to make ME look like a disgrace? didnt know they had that good halucinogenic drugs over there in europe

[Swish]

I don't need to do anything, you're the one of the biggest pieces of shit P99 ever saw...I'm not the one who needed to treat EQ like a full time job in order to RMT and make my rent payments lol.

[Calabee]

3:45 am, you're still posting, that job and life of yours must be so achieving that you can still do that and whoop 30+posts a day whatever time of the day for the last 4 years and a half now.

I cashed out cuz this game and server is dumb and didnt wanna look back, not make rent payments, but try again :p

I understand that typing coherent sentences is hard for you and is clearly time consuming, but for the rest of us non-dyslexic neckbeards, writing a post doesn't take much time and doesn't affect social life.

[William_Munny15]

My favorite Calabee story: A friend of mine had talked to him about buying a rogue epic MQ, he figured out she was a girl, and kept insisting she skyped with him to set up the deal. Even went as far to say he would give her a better deal if she skyped with him about the details. Overall weirdo

[Calabee]

wait what? haha

too bad that never happened, it's cool to make up stuff though

What a creepy piece of shit, I'm not surprised based on what else has been said in the past.

Did you ever find love in elf sim Calabee? Perhaps that's why you came back despite hating the server? The pieces are falling into place.

[maestrom]

I'm more interested in the decision making process here.

I understand that the staff is not accountable to us. But what prompted this change after ~4 years of level < 46 MQing? Is there actually any evidence that you could not MQ epics before 46? It seems like if epics were not MQable pre-46 and suddenly were, there would be lots of discussion on allah or at the very least safehouse.

This hardly seems like something that could have been a ninja-change done by SOE after Velious. It also makes you wonder why they would ever have done something like making them MQable at level 1 in the first place.

Since it doesn't make sense for them to make epics not-MQable pre-46 in Kunark and then later on removing the level 46 requirement, it seems more likely that there never was a level 46 requirement.

Not gonna lie, I had hoped to twink a rogue with epic pretty early on and this definitely changes my plans for my next alt. This just seems like its coming out of the blue. What kind of conflicting research was there?

[trinkets]

Oh yay, culprit started another thread bragging about himself. Does this help you hook up with more dudes playing female chars online?

[Rararboker]

The change isn't affecting MQ's. It just adds a lvl requirement to the epics.

Filbus, what happened to the days of you being an extreme RPer with SSs and epic poems?

I used to show those to friends at work and brag about how nerdy EQ was in its ultra super immersion levels.

That's a great question and I ask it of myself. I still RP when I play. I think ultimately I don't have any new character developments for Filbus. He is a broken husk of a halfling, shattered by PTSD and acting out of reflex.

I'm also putting my creative energy into other places. Sadly, no one is paying me for writing long, high-concept Roleplaying stories with EQ screenshots. When I have already sunk so much energy into the game from a raiding level, it makes me feel uneasy to think about pouring more of myself into this bottomless pit that is Everquest.

There is, however, one story that has yet to be told. It requires a lot of coordination and help from a GM. So, who knows if that will ever happen :)

I'm very impressed that you "monopolized" the rogue epic market on p99. You can put that down on your next job application as being experienced in economics. I'd hire ya :P

[Huggz]

Dude sounds like a major twat, but he's right about Swish. Pushing 12,000 posts and climbing. The addiction is real. Literally on every single thread in forums.

There are hotlines for your compulsive behavior, Swish.

Also, try going outside. I know you are probably depressed, it may help.

Clearly, you should donate all these dirty coins to the church of your choosing to expunge your sins & atone for these mistakes.

thing is i started playing for fun and kill time, never had any intent on making money off of it, and i never did till cashing out in the end.

Yah 5k for a 4 year ammount of time i played here is ridiculous, doesnt even come close to a minimal wage actually... like i said i never played to make money though, it was just a bonus to confirm my choice of quitting :P

Some druggie pillhead developer who probably did not have any ability to unilaterally make changes to the classsic EverQuest experience, gave a forum post blathering while stoned on schedule II controlled substances that it wasn't really intended.

Very very weak evidence. The validity is in question. "Originally intended" based off the forum post of a pandering druggie just isn't enough data for me.

I think it was on the first Pantheon stream that was done with P99 staff, someone asked Brad if low lvls running around with epics was classic and he said something along the lines of it never being intended, didn't remark if it was actually possible.

[AzzarTheGod]

Brad left his position at SOE a few weeks before Luclin launched. That left him several years of design time to go back and do what he intended.

But it stayed in the game. He had several years to fix his mistake, yet he did not do anything design-wise. Its because his OPINION must not have been unilaterally accepted.

One thing we know for certain, it is NOT classic to remove the ability to create epic twinks.

[Troof]

It was actually our very own Samwise from Red who took the initiative and sent brad a email that he responded to about the epics never being intended for lvl 1s

[AzzarTheGod]

See above, multiple reasons why you can wipe your ass with said e-mail.

It doesn't change the fact epic twinks are classic.

SamWise is trolling. Even he knows it was classic. "Originally intended" a few decades later in retrospect?

This isn't Project Hindsight. You feel me? This is Project 1999 "Classic Everquest" Read the brand name in the top left corner of the screen.

Project Hindsight 2015 is going to drive a hard percentage of people away. Many people aspired to create an epic twink of their own some day. BIS twinks are the ultimate goal of twinks, sort of like dreaming of buying a certain Ferrari or a luxury flagship car in real life.

This is a devastating change to the twink fanatics and twink dreamers trying to work their way up the ranks.

Welcome to Project Hindsight 2015.

Someone is mad. I think it's a good move for new players wanting to quest their own epics. Stops the MQ fat cats.

Stops this shit, I shouldn't have to be protecting a guy trying to do his epic piece versus the others.

...and PS, because everyone's going to assume I was there to MQ an epic. I was there to get my high elf mask done (gotta rerun the whole thing). I don't mind waiting for another pop, but some people with their "me first" attitude would shit on the leveling guys trying to quest theirs.

[AzzarTheGod]

Stops the MQ fat cats.



This is like saying were going to make non-classic changes to fix pringles-can shit takers at Lodizal. A 3 stage variance spawn system still didn't deter anyone from shitting their pants at Lodizal.

The game was designed the way it was designed. MQ fat cat? Is just someone camping and selling an item, just like any other in-demand items.

"but but epic quest is supposed to be done by the player, its special" no evidence to support that MQ were not intended.

These are the flaws of classic Everquest. The project wasn't founded on fixing bad design and improving the game experience.

Unfortunately super casuals not being able to compete on a populated server is a part of the classic experience. Its Project 1999 Classic Everquest, not Project 2015 Socialist Everquest.

I didn't say I like it, Swish. But it was a part of the classic experience.

[captnamazing]

what the fuck is a super casual doing with an epic anyway lol? retard

[-TK-]

This is like saying were going to make non-classic changes to fix pringles-can shit takers at Lodizal.

There's been quite a few non-classic changes made around here for whatever reason the owners see fit. This project has developed into a classic inspired version of Everquest. For Rallos' sake get over it. It's still the closest thing out there that we remember to the game in it's era. The more you whine about this the more you look like you're just upset because someone cut into your monetary gains.

[AzzarTheGod]

The more you whine about this the more you look like you're just upset because someone cut into your monetary gains.

"You must be an RMT'er" - P99 Staff/Developer rationale for why classic 1999 purists are voicing dissent to non-classic item and quest changes. (Won't name the devs because singling/calling out staff isn't respectable)

Bunch of tinfoil hatting rationale from the pro-nerf anti-99 crowd. Even the staff is guilty of resorting to this psychosis as seen in the Announcements thread.

"There must be an ulterior motive!!" No, not really. There's no mean and nasty Big Brother banks scheming and lobbying to fuck you out of as many gains as possible.
