This isn't the communities server. Get over it.
No other EQ EMU non-custom server has succeeded the way P99 has.

The only valid argument for the fun leaving is there is nothing to progress for. Server firsts have been claimed and that's that. A new server starting from classic day 1 would change that, Until those server firsts have been claimed.

There is a reason old mmo's like EQ and UO still make new expansions and somehow stay afloat to keep the main servers online. If they didn't people would get bored and leave.
I have first hand experience of an era based uo private server that is losing players because it's a pure-era based server with no custom content and nothing to add. It's one of the best servers but no one wants to play the same thing over and over.

Server firsts haven't really been accomplished as such in terms of classic EQ. Emulated EQ firsts have been accomplished.

Really isn't possible atm to accomplish real classic EQ server firsts because the mechanics don't exist for that to happen.

When lazy aggro, no binding in dungeons, no FD -> Sneak -> 100 blur and Pally Only Soulfiring is implemented, if it ever is, I doubt any of the guilds will be able to take even Vindi, let alone a ST warder.

I'd like to see a server first without those things... would be interesting to be proven wrong but I doubt I would be.
