Great backstory to the server which has absolutely no relevance to ragefire.

Also, this is fucking everquest Time Invested = Rewards. Hurp de derp.
I realize that a lot of the people that like to talk about "time invested" as a euphemism for poop-socking didn't actually play end-game on Live, so let me explain why people have a problem with the current variances on this server: they're not classic. This "time invested" didn't exist on Live -- it's a product of P99 trying to find a solution to the cluster-fuck of end-game that existed on Live and should exist here. Certain variances existed, yes -- but the massive variances of P99 are unique.

Many of the non-TMO, non-IB types have done the end-game in the past. Many of us would be glad to do it again. But many of us are here for the classic experience, not the customized end-game that has been created for this server.

People don't whine because they want things they don't deserve. They whine because things here aren't the way they "should" be, as per the stated goals of P99. It's a deliberate change to classic EQ. I'm not saying it's not right: it serves purposes, of course, which is why it is the way it is. But that's why people complain.
