I'm fine with this. However it should extend to the petition forum.

If your petition needs screenshots to be corroborated, and you only have screenshots with Luclin models, you are not allowed to petition.

GMs and Devs shouldn't be subjected, unwillingly, to your nasty perversion.

Do you guys fall ill when you accidentally see Luclin models in a google image search for "Everquest" as well?

How autistic is the userbase on this server?? This is CWC tearing down a Sonic display because the arms were blue tier.
Nah, I played EQ through 2012 on Live. When searching I expect to see that stuff.

However when I come to a Classic Community, I expect to see classic.

People have a Burger King mentality when it comes to P99 and that's what bothers me. They want to pick and choose what *they* want as their own classic.

If they could ban all UIs but the classic ones, remove item linking, DoT damage display, single chat box, single hot bar, remove buff timers, remove cycle NPC/PC hotkeys... I have no doubt a good chunk of people would quit overnight. But I'd be happy as a pig in mud. Cause that's all classic as fuck. And guess what? Without a lot of those features a lot of people who previously could solo content effectively, couldn't anymore. They would stop being efficient when they no longer see their DoTs tick or buff timers. Without their cycle targets and multiple hot bars, people get slower at reacting to trains, adds and mez breaks, etc.

They can throttle zone times and simulate mass-Zerg latency causing LDs (still a big fan of this. You engage dragon with 60 people, 1-3 random people get 2-3 minute stuns cast on them to simulate crashing like would always happen in classic raids from crazy raid lag on shit Internet), if they so choose and I'd be down with that too. That's more limiting hardware rather than actual EQ Mechanics/Interface but that would more correctly emulate the classic EQ experience.

Yet all these people come here and bitch and moan about losing target rings or con colors in targets or compasses or maps. YOU chose to play on a server marketed for its closes ness to Classic EQ. If you want all those convenience features that trivialized the game and dumbed down even the most basic aspects (The number of people who can't understand /loc is baffling to me), EQLive still exists for free. Go play there.

As they say, shits classic.

It's their forum RP. They're completely immersed in their chosen role as classholes. They never break character, even when, or perhaps especially when, their Vision[tm] of classholishness compels them to take positions that are indistinguishable from trolling. This is what happens when you abandon any notion of civilized restraint and take your immersion to 11.

Mothers, don't let your children grow up to be classholes!

LOL. I don't "have a problem with" anybody contributing to this project. That's especially true of the staff! But I include you and Ele and everybody else putting in time to research and/or test the details that keep things evolving here. I may disagree with specific details and goals and points of emphasis, but so what? That's just my opinion man. [You must be logged in to view images.

Im guessing I am the only one that never notices. EQ looks like EQ to me. I might have luclin models on? IDK, Im sure when I started playing a couple years ago I put them in there. Never thought about it.

Luclin models are pretty much the reason I quit real EQ in 2002.

I can't even imagine how you could possibly do a worse job designing and animating player models. Just mind-bogglingly bad.

Trolls, ogres, iksar, gnomes, halflings, dwarfs, and erudites are terrible Luclin models in my opinion. I didn't mind the elves models that much.

Iksar possibly the biggest upset of them all. Did anyone find it appealing? It's like they spent the least amount of time redesigning Iksar, then gave them Kyphosis, as well as the worst facial upgrades imaginable.
