What I don't get is why people will pay for max level characters...raiding in EQ isn't that fun, in fact EQ has some of the most boring raids in existence and depending on your class you may barely do anything during the multi-hour raid. Why would you want to pay for a max level char.
Those early levels were not at all a drag to us youngins in 99 and a lot of us feel the same way still. We experienced EQ when there was no 'lvl 100 boost'.

That said, someone who played this game a lot and wants to explore the game at 50 should totally.

IMO we need some EMU projects devoted to a pure classic experience that enable stuff like this.

Sadly the 'cheat enabled' emus are riddled with custom content and non-classic mechanics. So p99 draws people that really aught to consider building their own "kunark box" were everyone starts at 44 with basic classic endish- game loots.
