P99 is actually basically fine and they just need to add in a custom Illusion: Froglok spell that can be purchased and used by player enchanters. Wouldnt that be fun? Youd be a little Froglok runnin around!

p99 is the best game since 1999, no need fixing
custom content on blue involving current deities would be cool tho , like, put the sleeper back in an event of give it a sort of cycle

Haha yeah, all joking aside, I think people really don't appreciate what we have here, it genuinely is so much fun. I think one of my favorite things are the pickup groups. I love having to make weird non-synergistic combinations work and trying to figure out how to keep the HP flowing or having to do crowd-control with a non-optimal skillset. You wind up with some of the craziest groups in this game, and I love it.

Remove Detoxx and Furoar and 99% of the problems would disappear

This. Perm ban of nearly all the toxic V leadership that made p99 into an esports game.

They need to address a server that will be stuck in the current state in perpetuum.
Bring the Sleeper and his warders back every few years, random removed items returning through different mechanics, more best of the best style events, etc.

Requesting changes to Classic EQ is like requesting DLC for the original Duckhunt/Mario game..

P99 is pretty good, certainly more good than bad.
In terms of raiding, I'm okay with leaving that part of the game for the obsessive types because the loot is unnecessary for normal activities anyway. They can have temple veeshan--I don't care about it. I do gripe when raid-related problems spills over into the normal parts of the game. I don't particularly like when raid guilds are seemingly allowed to train my little groups in their pursuit of pixels and face no repercussion for it. As long as they keep to themselves and don't bother me I don't much care what they do or how many Vulaks they monopolize.
Otherwise, Bards have long since turned into the scum class of norrath and should be permanently reduced to maximum 4 target AE. They ruin numerous zones, constantly train people and generally cause trouble, and are the most consistent problem I run into in the course of normal gameplay.
On balance, those problems are pretty modest given the vast scope of the game world.

I think they should implement in game titles for people that get to level 60 with No Time To Rez. Duerkal should get the title "the Undying" cause he was first, and anyone who subsequently completes the achievement gets a standard title. This gives the try hards something else to do and reduces strain on camps

The only fix it needs is more servers. That would make it more classic. But I don't expect staff here to host or manage more servers as I'm sure they've got more than they can handle as it is.
Ideally they'd turn either Green or Blue into a carebear rotation server with lockouts at the end of green's life, leave the other for what the neckbeards call "competition" and then start a fresh Teal server, cuz that was the best server all along.

think this would be perfect challenge for some, no death is pretty neat challenge in such a challenging game like EQ.
think titles would be a perfect addition to something that doesn't really need tons of crazy code, imo. it's already a part of the game
also even temp banning furoar and detoxx would be funny to see the social experiment take place

Didn't read most of the thread but....A custom content raid zone to replace warders with similar but different loot. And a custom content Plane of Sky-like quest zone with HoT quality loot for casual raiders.

I think the GM's should stop banning people, but instead just make the game terrible for offenders.
Get caught boxing? Woops weird, every account you use and character you create now has max weight and -20 health and mana regen.
Won't stop crying about raid shit? Woops, how weird, 50 mobs just spawned on top of your raid. Hope you guys enjoy this 2 hour corpse run, because woops they just showed up outta nowhere again. Full on glitch through the walls and from the ceilings mob trains.
You've shown time and time again that you are an anti social piece of shit? Congrats, your character now can't roll higher than a third of the highest number you roll for.
Obviously you should give people a chance to redeem their bad habits, and turn it around. Like make them adopt noobs and show them the ropes of the game. But all in all, I would find this an absolute hilarious way to deal with the issues around here.

There's really no way to fix P1999. It is essentially created to emulate a 20 year old game, stuck an era of gaming when the people who played it were mostly kids and teenagers with too much time on their hands. It will never get any better than it currently is because it specifically made not to be improved. They want to keep it "Classic". Not improved classic or a better version, or even what the developers had originally intended, but how it actually was, or atleast to the best of what little we can gleam from net archives of what EQ was like back then. There's no way for it to get better because that is the intended design. Not to better but to emulate what it was, despite the differences in the gaming community today and the massive differences from the majority of the audience that plays this game versus the ones that played EQ back in 1999.
I don't fault the developers of P1999 for this, but it's inevitable that the flaws in this old game will eventually show and people will burn out. Real EQ however adapted many times to match their audience. It's not what the people here want, but at least they tried to adapt the server to the changes in the gaming community.

Classic+ is the only way
Raid bosses are 24 hour spawns+12 hour variants, drops double loot
Alternate epic quest options
More deity benefits from the get-go. Agnostic too strong
Class buffs
Wizards get their own form of clarity, stronger than enchanters and not stackable with enchanters, maybe a mana heal that does not stun you and acts over time
Druids/Shaman regens quicker cast, last longer (when in the same group as caster), lower cost
Druid skin spells getting +1 mana regen per rank
Bards getting double attack, and instead of songs with a cast time, instant spells but triggers a 3 sec global cooldown with merged song effects to shuffle songs around, single dots before level 20 for instance
Pal/SK getting Monk's Block
Rangers getting endless quiver (maybe from an actual quest)
Warriors getting an ability that forces a weapon to proc, slam being universal with a small stun for agro
Clerics/Mages self armor spells have a small mana regen that stacks with clarity
rog/monk are fine
actually ya know what fuck it i got bored typing, im just ganna play wow classic

Some might say deleting 10% of an expansions content 1 year into an infinite timeline is cringe, but that's p99.

Tall people tend to die younger, because their bodies contain more cells, each of which has a chance to mutate and become cancerous. So more cells = more chances to get cancer.
