I used to play a bard back in.. somewhere at the start of 2000.
I was 15-16 then, 29 now.
My friends and I were reminiscing about the "old days" and how we missed subscription games and how "broken" [compliment] Everquest was in relativity to MMOs now.
We'd also commented on how fast we could type because of this game. (Kiting as a bard to not die and teamspeak demanded quick typing).
To sum it up, we discovered this server and how it intends to release the expansions. We all feared for our real lives as this is sure to be the destruction of them.

I was a 65 Vah Shir Bard in Cynosure on Tunare -I say this in case there are any of my old guildies out there :-P
I was raiding up to Plane of Earth, Plane of Fire, Vexx Thall, and that sort of stuff (if memory serves).

I forgot how difficult it was to kite and how different the camera controls are! It's sooo difficult, but it's totally worth the retro feel.

Currently I'm a level 6 bard in Eastern Commons - I have two friends and we are hoping to making a decent party to level together and hopefully get on board with some like minded people.


Just saying hi and that i'm ecstatic that this Project 1999 server is up and running.

Welcome!

This server will *not* release any more extensions, velious is the last one. The admins and a lot of users feel that later extensions destroyed the classic feel of EQ, so they will be left out.

Oh I appreciate that information. I hadn't read any specifics on the matter. I let myself assume it would go to PoP and such.
Thanks!

I can't find where it mentions that they won't go past Velious. Can you provide me with where that information exists?

Welcome to Thunderdome. The admins (and most other people around here) are vehemently anti cats-on-the-moon, but that doesn't preclude all the classical non-feline based glory to be had. Enjoy the show.

Ahh yes Cynosure brought some of the most entertaining server drama. That guild tag still brings memories like these even years later.

Haha wow- I wonder what year that was, only saw month and day for dates.

Forgot about a few of those names. Thanks :-)

I actually have a RL friend who was in Exegesis and we used to hang out all the time. Made for interesting times.

Oh yeah, I was remembering Talisman and Divine Crusade. I remember really upsetting Relix- We were dueling (bard dotting him in Nexus arena) and my SK friend Harm touched him, then we messed/snared stun combo ed him and the dots finished him off. He was really pissed about that.

That guy needed to be 2 v 1 though, dude was pretty uber if I remember correctly.
