Oh yeah, I forgot, of course, you also "pick and choose" which parts of classic are real classic, and which parts are for butthurt crybabies, momma's basement dwellers and wannabe losers
It's not about pick and choose, it's about viable and not. The P99 folks do everything viable, but classic boxing isn't viable.

In classic you had to pay for two accounts, both for the first box, every expansion, and every month. You also had to have two physical computers: EQW didn't come until later, and even then it was ban-worthy tech for the entire classic era.

P99 can't technically force only one instance to run (even if they did people could run VMs). They also can't charge: that's part of their deal with Daybreak (or at least is presumed to be).

So they have two choices, and both are 100% unclassic: no boxing, or people boxing all over the damn place. Most other EQ Emu servers (all of which have pop <100) go the latter route. P99 went the former, and I think anyone who has played on both will tell you, the P99 choice is by far more classic.

Also .. you're a child. I don't even want to invest effort into insulting you better, because it's not even really an insult: more a statement of fact. Baler and Nirgon may not be the friendliest people in this forum, but that response was childish.
