You really think advertisement will be successful for this server? What are you expecting, some godsend that will send thousands of players excited to play here? Not is that unrealistic, but given once they get a taste of this community, or reach end game, most of them will leave.
The game is though already advertised quite a bit from word of mouth. In all my mmo career since the launch of p99, with hardcore raiders or casuals, whenever Everquest was brought up, and usually was because people would get frustrated with current game designs and have a warped memory of EQ being hard, they bring up p99.
Don't get me wrong, I love p99, but obviously in my own opinion, I think advertisement just wouldn't be worth it. WoW is always a game that has appealed to a substantially higher population than EQ could ever hope to be at, usually competing with several other similar WoW servers. The advertisement there makes a little more sense to me, especially because of the appeal towards casual play.
