I can understand not wanting to go from worst gear to best gear to worst gear in a few days time and having to learn 50 new levels of spells and totally different grouping/soloing strategies you haven't seen yet.

P99 has been around for almost 5 years so the number of people just starting for the first time in the last couple months is probably a few % of the overall population so yeah it's kind of bummer timing.

You should look at it as an opportunity though. Many people will never be able to get their epic on blue or red. You have the chance to start out with some uber gear (some of the starting gear choices were kind of bizarre) including your epic. One of my mains is a 56 Mage and the Earth staff to get the epic is held hostage for 1/2 million plat the few times it's offered for sale which isn't going to happen. This is my chance to play with an epic pet!
I was in EQ beta way back in the day, played it till WoW came out, came back and forth several times. What I enjoy about P99 was that you actually have to work to get the quests done, it doesn't point you and give you everything along the way. That you don't just level up, you have to work at it. I created a human necro on blue and forgot that the guards in the sewers (bloodsabers), were negative faction to the bandit sashes and lost faction enough to be KOS in the sewers! Ya, stupid me, to me it is not the top epic game that brought me to P99 it was the actual gameplay... Can't wait for the blue and red servers to be up but I'm bored with Velious in 2 nights.. BORED
