[nilbog]

Just needs a space after the surname, or LFG, etc.

[Rhambuk]

Fuck yes nilbog you tell those naysayers. Can't wait for my space!

[Scowlie]

Pretty much the best change ever.

[Nerosys]

It's Terrible please change it back =P

[Rhambuk]

It's Terrible please change it back =P

The best thing about this server is that no matter what people like or dont like or think is effective or annoying, makes no difference its a recreation and I love that the gms dont care about anything but making it as classic as possible

[kazima441]

It's an eyesore. Change it back!

[myriverse]

It makes me think of those idiots who post pix in forums that are like 5000 pixels wide and ruin everything for everybody ever. I don't want to scroll right to read someone's name and guildtag.

[Rhambuk]

It's an eyesore.

So's your mom but I didnt run to rnf making posts =p

[Mortiiss]

[Hailto]

Yeah they look like crap, some things were changed from classic because they were actually made better. Don't need to recreate the shitty things imo.

[Tippett]

Too subjective with so many different opinions

All classic or none

[Taresh]

if you've paid attention to nilbog over the years he's tryin his darndest to get pure classic bugs and all

[Kekephee]

if you've paid attention to nilbog over the years he's tryin his darndest to get pure classic bugs and all

The bug that makes you disband a random person in your group instead of yourself if you try to leave group without self-targeting is classic as fuck and I'm glad it's still here

[Ele]

That's part of what made EQ great. Living with horrible implementations and begging the original devs to fix them.

[Malicious Style]

I think many people will quit if they restrict to VGA graphics with the original interface. It was the absolute worst thing about the game.

[Tippett]

fuck um shits classic

[Taffan]

One long name+guild+etc is classic! If you don't like them, then you didn't play classic :)

LOL ele just made the best point ever. its literally game over with this

people bitching at devs to make changes that in their opinion is for the better, and the devs ignore them and point to the vision?

shits classic as FUCK, about as classic as it gets!!

i now officially

[gotrocks]

fuck no edits.

i now offiicially support people complaining about changes made in the name of classic

[Kevynne]

if nilbog wants classic bugs he has to fix the vendor Emil (lastname here) in toxx near erudin.
He sold useless cloth caps for 1c for a quest to get bone shield and such. He sold them unitl 2006 when Prophecy of Ro was released and he was fixed.

[Acrux Bcrux]

I think 90% of the people complaining didnt play during classic.

Help hotkey awesome

[medievalerror]

It may be classic, but it's fugly. I take classic to mean something that adds to the "classic" feel of the game (e.g., the fact that early EQ was tough and had a different feel than Luclin+), not minute aesthetics like name plates. Not everything that was classic was good (much of it developers later realized was stuff that they ending up fixing--i.e., name plates). I am not really sure how keeping name plates like this adds to the classic feel of the game. The same is true with options like "Show/Hide Helm"--if some peeps hate the graphics of their helms, let them hide it; it doesn't detract from classic feel for others and ADDS to the experience of the game for those people who might want to use such an option. This race to make literally everything classic is getting ridiculous. Looks like I'll simply be rolling it /anon.

How about for the people who played most of their Everquest career with the names on one line? That sure does it for me.

The nameplates were retarded back then and were changed to two lines for a reason.

[Taresh]

The nameplates were retarded back then and were changed to two lines for a reason.

contested raid bosses were retarded back then and were changed to instances for a reason.

not having cats on the moon was retarded back then and was changed to having cats on the moon for a reason

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND PLAY LIVE IF YOU CANT HANDLE A NAME DISPLAY CHANGE FUCK

[Kagatob]

contested raid bosses were retarded back then on the few servers that were childish enough not to adopt rotations and were changed to instances because gamers these days are autists.

Fixed that part for you.

More classic changes and a space are hopefully in order.

Pras Nilbog.

[Nirgon]

Server purpose is to emulate logging into a classic EQ server.

Not logging into a server with classic content made easier by bugs, modern quality of life things (that aren't necessary) and custom UIs and shite.

Classic UI enforcement should be up next on the chopping block, I hope.

[Taresh]

people freak this bad over names i think we may have our first p99 death if classic ui is forced

[feanan]

We all like to whine and bitch about the changes they make, and yeah, lots of them suck.

But if they ever figure out how to force old shitty UI and graphics, along with spell book medding...blue population probably be like red

[Nirgon]

Foaming at the mouth for classic EQ. Can't wait for it.

[radditsu]

I am not playing a video game on a 640x480 screen

[SyanideGas]

/show 1.
never have to worry about name plates again.

[runehawthorne]

I don't understand why you would even consider using the original UI from when EQ first launched. I played EQ when the original UI was still existed and when it changed the game play was much better. These changes were made for a reason. The reason I enjoy playing on this server is because I enjoy classic content, but I don't think we need to change every little detail of the game to make it classic. Something else that wasn't classic was linking items, so if you want to make the game classic you would have to take that out as well, and I don't think that would go over well with people on the server.

[Cecily]

Selling 3 bags of stuff at t1. Hail me to see them.

[Nirgon]

Down with item linking!!!

[Rhambuk]

Down with item linking!!!

100%

WTS Backpack of stuff at T1 open trade window to view.

[Rhambuk]

I don't understand.

You don't need to.

[Nirgon]

I don't understand why you would even consider using the original UI from when EQ first launched. I played EQ when the original UI was still existed and when it changed the game play was much better.

I have a dream that one day we may all log in to something that cannot be discernable from classic eq. And hopefully also one that follows a true classic time line.

[Taresh]

I have a dream where people stop crying about classic elements getting added to a classic server.

need Nilbog to send me a CRT and classic UI please

[medievalerror]

Down with the p99 wiki. That shit ain't classic.

[medievalerror]

Correct me if I'm wrong (which I might be), but couldn't you two-box in classic? (yes, I played in classic, but not a hardcore enough computer or the $$ for a second account).

I thought you said you played RZ?

[nilbog]

I did. Erollisi Marr was my primary server and it was pve. I played RZ for pvp or if emarr was down.
