I can't believe Quarm isn't going to be shut down. Like at least half the players there would migrate to the new TLP if it got the axe. Direct competitor to live progression servers, nothing like p99.
Aw fudge. And she just secured the sinecure.

I'm surprised no one mentioned p2002 aka wayfarer's haven. Those guys went from PoP to several expansions later in a couple years. Yes, it's a 3 box server, so grab a copy of it, if Trust would let you, and make a single box only version. I haven't played on it in a couple years but the GMs were fun, participated, and enforced their rules. I did encounter pathing issues in Unrest, no surprise there LOL.

No. It's an attempt to force one dev's "vision" and if they don't like a thing, regardless if people were doing that thing in era or not, fuck off, kick rocks, out it goes. People had wildly unique experiences across different servers in classic. Just start a conversation in any of the guild discords about peoples experience in classic and it's easy to see. Trying to force one person's "vision" of classic as the experience that everyone is required to have is beyond stupid.
Yes, you kinda answered your own grievance here. In classic, when there were like 25 servers that all had populations over 1500, there were many emergent ways that different people played the game, resulting in legitimately different cultures on each server. Here, the scope is much much smaller than that, so how exactly should they "emulate" the things *you* remember that nobody else does? Or remembers differently?

They could tune the server exactly to *your* liking and there'd still be a million dickheads saying it's all wrong. See the issue?

It was a poor TAKP clone with a low pop at the time it was first promoted here. Did they ever find a dev that could do everything? If that wasnt bad enough it housed an old ex-staff member from here who got removed, got mad (is still mad about it in the Quarm discord), and doxxed some of the P99 staff and players.

2/3/4/more boxing is the feature to keep a lot of classic EQ enjoyers away.

I bet those boxers get some pretty serious RPing and socialisation done if only we could see what was said in /g, and that is what eq is really about.

Sorry for this man, but...

Luclin models are the worst thing ever made if we are talking aesthetics.

No one needed the yassified player models we got there.

I am game for all revamps, as long as we keep the old models.

I remember being excited about them in real time when they were dropped back then because it was cutting edge graphics but I agree that the original models held up better over the test of time.
