First of all /high five Loramin - I get what your saying and am glad your inputting your opinion in this thread. Second I never said I had BiS, I said I had better gear there in 3 months than I had in 8 years on p99.
My enjoyment is killing a mob, be it normal or raid, without feeling like I'm a dick who has to lawerquest up just to have fun. P99, for me, just wasn't fun anymore. The only fun I was having raiding was Sky simply because I didn't have to deal with /ooc crap about training and or conceding mobs. I like the fact that a raid is called at 9pm and I can plan my day around that with my wife and kids or work. I still log in here from time to time to help out but that is more out of respect of my guild than anything else.
To me p99 caters for the 2% raiders which is fine for those who want that competition, it wasn't me. If I wanted to be the best I would of just stayed on Live.
My character link in my sig links to my bard's profile on TAKP if your interested in what I have.

First off, thank you for your positive response to my post, especially since mine was so negative.
The thing is, I was making assumptions, and I definitely could have worded things better to make that clearer.
I assumed that in 8 years here you must have gotten pretty close to BIS, because 8 years, even if you play a bunch of alts, is a long time.
I then assumed you were even closer to BIS on TakP than you were on P99, because you said your gear was better. I also assumed you played a "normal amount of time" (ie. a few hours each day or night), because 8 years of playing crazy amounts of time sounded ... crazy.
Now imagine you said to someone back on live EQ during Velious "In only three months, playing a normal amount, I've gotten to level 60, killed almost every mob possible, and gotten gear that's almost the best possible, gear that's better than the gear of that guy who somehow magically has been playing here for 8 years." They'd laugh at you right?
So all I was trying to say was: I like classic speed, and what you described as faster and better sounded worse to me. Particularly to the degree I saw based on my (very possibly incorrect) assumptions.
But just as with boxing, I am all for people playing EQ however they prefer. I just like the P99 style, and wish we could get some of the pluses from other servers (more expansions/content and a more friendly raid scene) while not getting fast mode with triple-boxing.

Depends on your definition of "classic" I suppose.
But even if we ignore that weirdness about AK (live > AK), Dald still likely has me beat on classic knowledge, by any definition.
