Wipe?
 

HI all, I am new to P99, I want to thank those involved with the creation and development for giving us a chance to relive 1999 EQ. I have been reading about a wipe of the server, I don't quite understand why that is necessary; doesn't live EQ just make an expansion live when they come out?
I have started 2 characters they are only level 10, and I have really enjoyed the classic experience, but if the server is going to be wiped what is the use of going any further?
RL time is valuable it just doesn't make sense to put in countless game hours just to see your efforts dashed in a second.

Can we get any more info on anything else that needs testing?

You can either:

1) Wipe server
2) Reroll at Velious release
3) Maintain current blue with Kunark only, but release a second server with Kunark and Velious.

Is there a poll somewhere on the server wipe topic?

I don't think there will be a wipe on this server, though I wouldn't care if they did. But they should also remove expansions and add classic items that were removed (manastone, rubicite, etc..) according the patches from the original game, like they have done all along. Release content like expansions and fixes as the game was suppose to progress, again like they have been doing. Just don't wipe it and keep Kunark, Velious and any items from those expansions, even no Iksar as a playable race. You want to make it fair and classic, wipe and just make it classic and expand as properly as possible.

I think they should quit they're jobs, open 50 servers and cater to my every need.

I am pretty sure they have said multiple times there will never be a server wipe here.
People want to know that the hard work they put into the game pays off.

My only wish would be that they could stop the zerg of alts everyone has.
If they could somehow wipe all the alts and let everyone keep a main, that would be a perfect world. I have 3 level 60s and 4 other toons 56+ and I would have no problem if they nuked all but my main.

very few people were able to maintain so many toons. The gameplay here is far different then it was on live simply because of the number of alts people have access too. Mobilization is not a factor here. it is more about who camps out at the right place and can log in faster then who can assemble a raid from all over the world or pick one priority mob to go for.

will the plane of Mischief be the original one located in NToV?

3 seems odd to me. I'd see it making more sense to release a Velious here and launch new classic server.

Yes. Currently accessible for testing via NToV castle nook or by asking the teleporter gnome in Nro/Thurgadin "mischiefplane". Come release PoM will only be accessible via NToV.

The content inside PoM will be as original as it can be with what information is available.
