I think it's been stated enough that not everyone's classic server was ran exactly the same rule enforcement wise by EQ staffers. Coming to p99, one should expect emulated eq with emulated rules; however, too many come here expecting a fucking time machine of nostalgia.

Play P99 for what it is, fight in-game for the change that you want to see in P99 (it's proven to work), and enjoy the ride regardless.

TMO's general stance has never changed and it doesn't appear to be changing anytime soon. They've reached out several times and each time it was shit on by the server, reap what you sow (on both sides). The server keeps smashing these posts against the GMs and TMO as if one day a rainbow of forgiveness will wash over Zeelot and crew and turn them all into flaming EQ pixel fairies, it's not going to happen... stop trying to make it happen.

Try going in-game, find a bunch of like minded individuals, align under a single banner, and then take what you want by force, political means, trolling, and/or RL assassination, etc... it's the only way.
I think people come here expecting it's going to be a real attempt at a server running "classic" everquest code, and instead they later find out that it is instead an attempt to emulate the "classic" atmosphere rather than the game itself. Which is just stupid.

Project 1999 is a free to play Emulated Everquest Server giving Players the opportunity to experience Classic EQ Once again, starting with the original 3 continents and a max level of 50, with the look and feel of the old interface and several modifications making game mechanics similar to how the game used to be.
I don't want to play project 1999, I want to play classic EverQuest. The fact intentional non-classic things exist here (for good or worse) has caused me and many like me to practically stop playing. It feels disingenuous.

I know it takes work to get things right and coded "classically" but when decisions are made that intentionally and knowingly violate something that was classic I refuse to accept it. That's not why I started playing here, and it won't keep me continuing to play here.

I don't want to play project 1999, I want to play classic everquest. Fuck me, right?
