If the patch notes were easier to find there would actually be less hand holding
On the one hand, I agree (and most people in this forum would probably agree) that the front page of project1999.com isn't perfect. As a former web designer myself, I would not give it an A+.

But at the same time, the staff have built not one but two servers. They constantly maintain those servers with a dedicated all volunteer research/coding team AND a GM/guide team. They also built a wiki and a forum (which also has unpaid moderators), and they're constantly working on new things like Twitch streams, a PvP teams server, and a recycle server. Oh, and there's that Velious thing too.

Asking even one of those many, many volunteers to put in even a single minute more of their time so that it's (even) easier to play on their 100% free server is ... well let's just say you should keep some perspective. Especially when it's not that hard to get the files; after all the (literally) thousands of players that came before you all managed to figure it out.

Plus, Project 1999 has issues sometimes, from DDOS attacks to corrupted files to people who act like jerks. Figuring out how to get the spell files, or politely ask for help to get them, is like a trial you need to go through to prove that you can handle those issues when they come up.

Anyone can improve the wiki! If you are new to the Blue or Green servers, you can improve the wiki to earn a "welcome package" of platinum and/or gear! Send me a forum message for details.
