The recent downtimes were moving p99 servers to a daybreak owned datacenter. Roegan et al were paid a roughly 300k to transfer ownership of p99 IP to daybreak and they will hire 2-3 of the developers from p99. Within 6 months you will need a daybreak account to play p99, and they will probably start charging for it. Expect outages while they complete the integration, daybreak has crappy IT team.

I heard it wasn't so much that P99 is being acquired by Daybreak as it was both P99 AND Daybreak being acquired by an unspecified third party. And who might that third party be?

Partially accurate, minus the whole third party stuff. A sale is a sale. The EverQuest franchise is for sale and a deal is imminent.
Daybreak did seize "de-facto" control of P99 post-agreement. That is fairly well-established at this point. It was after the agreement the interest in p99 as competition intensified as preparations for Phinigel's launch were made.
It was solely because of the ColumbusNova management shakeups at Daybreak that caused the heat to get cranked up on p99 as far as "unnecessary competition" goes. Prior stance under old management by Smedley was "We have so many subscribers of EQ and EQII in its current state. Niche hobby gameplay has never been our market. These few individuals are not current customers of SOE for a reason".
Smedley was retained for a period of time, but it was in name-only. He was no longer calling the shots.
During the management shakeups at Daybreak the millennials started to suggest to the veterans that p99 is possible direct competition. The old guard Gen X'ers could not have cared less.
The ColumbusNova shakeup from top to bottom, the review of everyone's job, and the hiring of new people (new people looking to make a splash, suggest ideas, rise within the company. Anyone that works at a major corporation knows what happens when you put younger 30-somethings into a position. They make and suggest changes that might not really make a lot of sense. Sometimes they are good changes, sometimes they are not)
Long story short, these newer employees started the buzz that p99 was a more complete product, and less of a neckbeard project than people had realized. It reached ColumbusNova's newly installed Daybreak management and a deal was cut.

In all seriousness, It's a great idea for DBG to take over p99 and run an exclusively classic server with p99 style code. With a few fixes it could turn out to be an extremely popular server.
Some of the old timers active in the raid scene are going to hate it..and no else.

I think you guys are missing the part where the classic purists would have no where to go.
Not saying I'd drop Agnarr for it -- but some don't really want to go to PoP and want a more classic experience as far as code goes. Everyone would have to stop playing EQ, go to some stupid other EMU (p99 was the only good one -- besides a few custom content ones), or play the DBG server
I'm saying its a great idea from a business perspective.
Baler
08-25-2017, 03:52 PM
day break would have to copy the p99 code and re-create it with their own code.
due to the legal gray area that most EMUs sit in daybreak couldn't just fire up p99 servers and start charging for it.

The only area that p99 destroys agnarr is keeping the game relatively clean of griefers and hackers. Does it exist? Sure... but here's the difference... p99 moderates their servers.
If you spend time on a tlp server near krono farms you will run into cheaters that p99 would handle. Other than that agnarr is great. But this distinction is, quite literally, critcal.

How do "hackers" ruin your gaming experience on tlp servers. I have been playing on them for years now and they are a nonissue. The only people they affect are the ones that can't handle the fact that it exists. Dark elf track and other mq functions do nothing but ruin the users experience. It makes no difference with so many instances available.

Well I'll be a well-trained cat.
DBG is actually interested in the RED server because of its diverse player population and strongly bonded community. Stanford University has contracted a collaborative research project with DBG, P99(Red) and Stanford to further understand the dynamic of online social stratification and how this plays into a larger global colonialism with player raid times.
I expect that Rogean will make about $5000 while we remain a part of the cloaked experiments of unexplained deaths, zone crashes on raid mobs and slow zoning/disconnects.
Who is the cloaked entity? I would have to say North Korea..or maybe China.

Project 99 is a registered non-profit organization. It adheres to Massachusetts non-profit regulations. There are no profits.
Yes. State law (which governs your nonprofit incorporation) and the IRS (which regulates your tax-exempt status) allow a nonprofit to pay reasonable salaries to officers, employees, or agents for services rendered to further the nonprofit corporation's tax-exempt purposes. Indeed, most nonprofits have staff.
Rogean can pay himself or employees a reasonable salary for furthering the non-profit agenda, but trust me, its nothing worth writing home about and its very restricted. Non-profit status isn't a big joke.
That aside, people simply do not donate to this project as much as everyone thinks.
I calculated what p99 would cost in development money against the volunteers here (industry rate) and none of these guys would get anything except a cheeseburger compared to the time they actually put into this project. That's why they are called volunteers. You could double the donations and it still wouldn't break even.
If this were an actual for-profit business, hypothetically, p99 bled money like crazy to the point it would have been shut down many years ago. p99 is "red". Deep red.

If you spend time on a tlp server near krono farms you will run into cheaters that p99 would handle. Other than that agnarr is great. But this distinction is, quite literally, critcal.
The reason P99 bans hackers and RMT so aggressively is:
1) They need to. There is no instancing, so it make content impossible for most people to complete with RMTers blocking everthing.
2) They could. They had a few guys that knew how to spot boxers and exploiters that literally fly around checking up on people...pretty awesome. There wasn't some overpaid idiot 3 bosses above Rogean telling him he couldn't do it either. (anything like this is very bureaucratic to get started in a business...memmos, meetings, people's opinions, office politics...)
There was recently a wave of boxing bans and some other signs DBG has learned (maybe through p99) that boxers are costing them money. But even if they never do shit about all that...instancing on p99 would bring in way more people than it would lose.
I'm pretty sure they would want the server seperate from their others but also want
1) krono on it and
b) agents of change

I'm sure can petition for a corpse restore once ban done.

Not if the loot on that corpse was tied to RMT (I'd hope).

Had a some people app on TAKP and the comment line was "P99 sold out to Daybreak."

Nemce! Your boy Manasana left AG to create a new guild. Just curious, your thoughts on that!
All those preparations to groom him for relevant leadership responsibilities, and he leaves AG.
I swear there's no loyalty anymore. :(

Thanks for the good news! As a casual player, I did not want to have to "start over" somewhere else again. I've come to enjoy this version of the game world.

The recent downtimes were moving p99 servers to a daybreak owned datacenter. Roegan et al were paid a roughly 300k to transfer ownership of p99 IP to daybreak and they will hire 2-3 of the developers from p99. Within 6 months you will need a daybreak account to play p99, and they will probably start charging for it. Expect outages while they complete the integration, daybreak has crappy IT team.

I will not open a pay to play account with Daybreak.

Was literally shitting bricks until I read this post.
Thank you Sirken and p99 staff for making this project real!

I thought it was 30 days for first time caught boxing, perma-ban for RMT. I hope that's what it is because 30 days wouldn't do much to discourage RMT.

It's perma-ban for RMT.
Don't do it.

Yeah Mana has his own ideas. He's a good guy though. Hope things go well for him. Ruffel is going to do an excellent job leading AG and already has for the last few weeks. Only rangers with Vulak swords can be Guild Leaders, it's a rule.

I feel a change coming in AG!
New, aggressive, non-casual AG perhaps? The second coming of BDA? A new TMO? Rampage on Steroids?
I dunno but I suspect big changes!
That being said, I hope all is well with you Nemce. When you coming back? :p

Anyone associated with the development of P99 deserves to be paid, at the cost of all of us losing 8 years of character development.
Sad, but true.
You mean 8 years of neglecting your actually life to chase sim-elf pixels. Not exactly what I would call "character development."
Nonetheless, I agree =)
But to be fair wiping this thing would be a really needed life change for a lot of people on here.

Do you believe that if they wiped, the people you claim to need a "life change," would actually change their life? Those are the people who would throw themselves into raising a new 60 immediately after a wipe.

Yes but with such vigor!!
