I don't think it would be wise to expect a 20 year old emulated EQ server to sit in the same content for an extended period of time. People who want that experience could choose to play on the persistent server.

Alternatively, they could offer a server with a slower and one with an accelerated timeline. I personally believe they could easily draw 1k+ on both.
Oh wait, I remember you, weren't you like 15-16 years old? Excuse me if I'm mistaken, somewhere around there. Yeah the hard-core-time demand can be brutal on most adults. I remember early EQ during the summers (I still miss that original client [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] ), was just so flooded with teens like 24/7. Then when school was back in session, they all about vanished, way more vanished than the adults hehe.

Anyway, doesn't matter what you or I want, it's more what staff wants. And from what was said in forums a couple years back, it'll likely be a slower progression if not standard. I totally agree with them on that.
