aside from devnoob randomly disappearing for extended periods of time, always held the opinion that a server with image/devnoob at the helm and p99's source code would be the best box we'd likely ever have

Yep, couldn't agree more. We'll see if the seasonal approach hooks in people at all, their servers for the most part have operated that way anyways. I will say, their PVP code is as good or better than R99 - but don't expect the PVE/quest/mob pathing type polish of P99. It is certainly functional though.
When I played with Dentists on the last box, we spent at least 50% of the time if not more PVPing because we could knock out NToV in a couple hours every three days with 6 of us two boxing. Everyone on these boards that complains they are sick of the zerging EQ requires for Velious and there isn't enough PVP owes it to themselves to at least give this server a couple week trial in March. There really isn't much incentive to run a guild of more than 10-12 people, and you can farm some unique items as well as close to top tier raid loots from PVP tokens instead of PVE raids.
Perhaps if the new Zek box has some sustained success dev/image and P99 staff can bury the hatchet and give the community what it wants.
