What does a new player see?

A front page extolling the efforts of noble GMs to combat the RMT scourge. Specific rule sets regarding every aspect of EQ including camp rights, training, pvp, raiding and exploiting. A GM staff, employed specifically to enforce said rules.

When a new player comes to the server they inevetiably ask about boxing however there is not boxing on P99, this is a "legit server".

When there is a dispute, new players are told to petition it.

Unfortunately, it isn't until they've invested some serious time into te server that it becomes obvious P99 has the highest per capita rate of couples playing together of any MMO. Or unless its an inconsequential violation, the petition process with be unfairly compromised by a conflict of interest between certain end game raiders and the GMs who are supposed to be unbiased.

In reality it takes the average player a while to realize the facade of integrity and fair play only serves to spur the rotten core of RMT fueling the server.
