Most of the people who do this are considered idiots anyway, so you'll get the last laugh at higher levels when people invite you to groups but not them. Don't worry too much about it.

I doubt either of us will get anywhere near that level - "back in the day" I leveled a troll sk to 30 then quit for Tallon Zek, levelled to 35 then quit when I saw I had 29 days played on the new char, to me, that's just sad.
Having said that I applaud the rest of you who are having a great time reliving the old days, the thing is, the vast majority of you guys do not play a hybrid class, and for very good reasons.
The reason I play troll SK, is because any other race/class combo bores me. They do genuinely kick ass, it is just SO.DAMN.DEMORALIZINGLY.SLOW. I want to play Troll SK but now I know I have a 68% exp pen (I always thought it was 25%, so yeh ignorance is bliss) and no one wants to group with me.
Why does this server allow casters to see outside of their med book, for mana to regen from level 1 on hybrids, for decaying skeletons to "scowl" when they should be "indifferent", for scarab beetles not to glow, for high res water in oasis, for new weapon hit sounds whilst it keeps infuriating stuff such as the exp penalties and awful hit/miss melee ratio.
Classic EQ was in dire need of improvement at release and it received it. PoP ruined the game and we all know it - but EQ at release, though great comparatively speaking, needed a lot of work and improvement before it was as good as it was around 2001.
Ah, I guess I say to much - really it is my choice whether or not to play here and the creators of this server have the right to do whatever they want. Either way, I have stated my reasons why I won't play P1999, and I hope, perhaps, they might consider making the game an enjoyable experience.
