The Mac Client.

[maerilith]

Owns the shit out of the titanium client 1000% it takes some getting useto but it's elegant, and truly what EQ was meant to be. No numbers by default everywhere. Clean controls. No UI bloat, no extra bloat from options like ALTQ quest windows. And it stops at a DECENT place where the game was still EQ.

I will risk a ban by posting the above here. And by suggesting. P99 itself consider porting it's database to the mac client server and rerolling itself properly as MAC99. Or something like that.

Isn't that what the Tak Project or whatever other spinoff servers have been doing? P2002?

[maerilith]

They go to PoP eventually. And dont' have some of the classic tweaks (hide, etc) that 99 does. It would be interesting to have 99 migrated. I do like where P2002 is going and am willing to box another toon on Tak just to check it out. But I was just mulling over the issues with the titanium client while I as playing and it's very sad that both of those other communities are smaller then red. Only 30+ actual players on each box (3boxing permitted).

I think a 99 style box in classic with the Mac client would do well if it was properly promoted. Or if people could migrate chars there from a /movlog but then it would have to open in velious. I think a new box would be good for this community too. and not just a fluffy discord box. but a real new box.

also both servers permit boxing and i know 2002 has fast exp which... meh takes the accomplishment and permanence out of that 1-60 grind that keeps a server stable in the long long run

[maerilith]

Yeah I will always keep/play a toon here because that really makes a difference, that and a large diverse community.

[maerilith]

and you have to admit that the 99 staff are legit as it gets for an emu, i'de say some border on better than you're standard exceptional professionals

[indiscriminate_hater]

I'm going to show my kids threads like this to scare them away from drugs

[Swish]

In many ways we should be thankful that other servers haven't got a "no boxing" rule, I know I'd have been tempted to check out others, maybe play both etc if there was somewhere else with a similar thing to P99 going on.

Client good, server bad. Full of insanes.

Is there a server not full of insanes? I just think b99 has a higher proporion of not completely fucking batshit crazy to just simply normal nerdy crazy than most servers.

Explain what you mean about insanes on the AK servers?
