Honestly the best thing is probably to do the following, since after velious the server is no longer "classic" and we wont be limited to the heinous "classic" ruleset:

-Boost Experience rate by maybe 5X at least. There is no reason it should EVER take longer then maybe two weeks to max a character if you are playing every day. The exp rate on this server is horrendous and is certainly not "classic" by any means. This needs to be addressed immediately or I see a mass amount of players leaving the server VERY soon.

-Starter gear: Some of the best eqemu servers out there offer starting gear on venders for free. Nobody in their right mind wants to spend HOURS at camps. The best set of gear is probably something custom made with a decent click buffs on most (if not all) pieces of the gear.

-Mercenaries: Probably the greatest thing everquest ever invented. This is almost a necessity on this server now the way I see it. I've spent upwards of an hour in the past just trying to get a damn group. Mercenaries solve this problem as well as adding a whole new level of complexity to soloing.

-PoK books: Travel in this game is tedious and everyone knows it. PoK books were added to solve this problem. Just because something is "classic" doesnt necessarily mean we need to take it at face value.

-Boxing: So many people want to box and you are driving droves of players away from the server with this rediculous rule. Everquest has always been about boxing and that is how sony was able to keep so many subscriptions for so long. Taking away boxing is pretty much limiting your servers lifespan. Imagine if sony outlawed boxing how many people would quit?
Kind of sounds like P99 isn't the place for you, newfish.

In response to the OP: I would like to see some of the luclin in zones implemented in a way other than "cats on the moon." maybe add a new continent or something. I really enjoyed ssra temple. Also enjoyed other people playing beastlords. I would also like to see the LOY expac. Frogs were fun to play. Amphibians are very under represented on this server.
