I played on Fippy a lot from launch and then around LDoN era.
Apparently SOE devs at some social in San Diego on Friday said that they are in talks about coming out with a new time-locked server that will halt progression at PoP, since that seems to be where most people would want it to end. They're still in the "fleshing-out" phase, but jeez, I hope they get on that soon.
Best part of Fippy compared to P99 was obviously the number of leveling toons, the XP potions, and the fact that leveling from 1 to cap wasn't quite as soul-crushing and brutal as it honestly is on P99. Somehow, it all felt like it went by 100 times faster and was generally more enjoyable.
Love me some P99 but, how anybody finds the time to dedicate the amount of time that I did when I was a little kid is incredible to me. I feel guilty and bad if I play a game for 8 hours and have nothing more than a single level (where I don't get any new spells or abilities or anything at all) to show for it.
