And already feeling that lull. I thought this was going to be a new and refreshing re-re-reexperience but turns out its more of the same shit reinforced not by 2000~ era memories, but even more of the same shit with people with cataloged knowledge of 5-6 years of kunark by the same people from only like 5 years ago.

I think the key here lies in managing expectations. Green (and its presumed subsequent iterations) amounts to P1999's version of a limited-lifespan progression server. It should appeal to folks who enjoy that sort of race. It is not and never could be a time machine back to ~2000 because there are too many other factors in play besides the game code itself. I've said the following before: Nostalgia brings many players to P1999 but it doesn't keep them here very long. The folks who stay are the folks who like the game on its own merits beyond taking a few months' tour down memory lane.
I recognized Green's limitations early and never expected to get long-term use out of it. I enjoyed the time I spent on Green but P1999-Blue remains my primary server and will remain so as long as it remains open.
