Yet another "why can't we have luclin/pop on the anti luclin/pop server?" thread.
Jesus, if you like the post velious expansions why do you play on this server? Why don't you play on one of the other servers that have those expansions? You know, the expansions that drove most of us to seek out project1999. Every week somebody starts this thread. Shit get's old. This server is called project 1999. The clue is in the name. This server was created by players, for players who didn't like it when sony took a giant dump on their beloved game in the form of luclin and subsequent expansions. Stop trying to turn project 1999 into project free live everquest every week.
God damn.

First, take a deep breath, you seem mad.
Now, this thread (and all the others) are not official petitions or campaigns to move away p99 from it's original intentions. We're only discussing the reasons why we think Luclin is great.
We are aware that Luclin/PoP are never going to happen and we're fine with it, so don't worry, it's just a discussion.
Now to answer your question about why we play on here? Well in my case it's simple.
The Everquest i love to play are the Luclin/PoP eras. So it's a choice between p99 and live, p99 being the closest one to these eras.
I'm aware there are other emu servers, but none have limits on boxing, so when you see 350 players in the login screen, that means there's about only 100-150 real people playing, if that. Community is important in EQ, and p99's community is fantastic. Not so much the on forums, but in game i've met tons of people and made friends since the first day i started playing here. The server feels alive, so despite a lack of Luclin/PoP, it's great to play here because of the people.
P99 is also incredibly well-managed. The server is very authentic, no weird xp modifier and custom items that make everyone overpowered. The dev team and GMs are making a lot of efforts to provide us with a top-notch server. They're doing a mighty fine job, considering they're all volunteers and nobody makes a cent off of it.
So i guess what i really want is a PoP server, but with p99 community and ruleset. Call it Project 2004 or Project Golden Age i don't care, but that's exactly what i want. In the meantime, i'll keep playing p99 and bitch about the lack of Luclin/PoP and how it would be better with AAs and new spells/content, but it doesn't mean i don't enjoy the server as it is right now.
And i know i'm not alone.
