I re-subbed to play with some old friends who won't play on P99.

Last night the queue was even worse - I watched 2 movies (about 4 hours in total) via Netflix while waiting in the queue last night.

ive read a lot of posts on the daybreak boards from players making comments like "my friends wont play p99" or "my friends refuse to play on p99" or "fuck p99 id never play on that server"

and my question is, why not? what is the reason behind their adamant resentment of P99? i get it if they wanna box or run mq2, but if they want classic everquest, and since we do classic better than anyone else on the internet, why wouldnt they want to play on p99?

Because those people assume it's hard to get on this server and/or are just plain lazy. They're enjoying their magician run server, let em.. it'll die off in a month or 2, if that. Watching all these raid mobs downed by mostly mage groups is pretty sad.

For my friends who didn't want to hop over to P99 it comes down to lack of access to the Titanium client and one of the dll files getting flagged as a virus.

I also think without a sub fee and being an emu server that may or may not be here in a few years without substantial financial backing as other emus have done scares people off.

A lot of the general complaining about p99 on the daybreak forums about boxing and stopping at velious are the things I enjoy about it. P99 is also the closest experience to the original eq community.

Straight up ignorance about the server. The "just another emulator" mentality.

The fact that we're recognized by Daybreak as a community and Non-profit server helps now I would think.

As someone with friends like this I don't understand it either. I've even tried to bribe them with platinum and power leveling and they just aren't interested.
