P99 has so many custom rules : is it still classic at all ?

The wild west feel of EverQuest (which is part of what made it amazing) is completely gone or absent on P99. The fact that one guild can just hold a camp indefinitely is also extremely anti-classic. When I was a kid I remember Guk as being an actual leveling zone, handfuls of players grouped up all over the place, many wandering around in search of a group. I cannot imagine anyone just allowing a literal AFK player to hold onto Frenzied Ghoul camp for hours before handing it off to some other kid who just woke up. I know for a fact that another group would have just showed up and took that shit. And this also gave players more incentive to group. On P99, Wizards feel kind of like a pointless class for a lot of content. In situations where you're camping a rare item and you're terrified of being KS'd, a Wizard is the best class you can possibly have in your group. I actually remember being a 16 year old kid and camping Gator Scale leggings for 18 hours straight, and a Dark Elf wizard just showed up and sat there. Didn't say anything. I almost had a nervous breakdown because I knew if he wanted to KS me there was nothing I could do about it. Wizards on P99 just feel like shitty mages because the few scenarios where they shine are no longer relevant.

Holy fuck. In your "I was scrawny and not completely lying about this when I joined" thread, you posted a picture from 94 of your enrollment, but then contradict it completely by saying you were 16 in 1999?

What the fuck is wrong with you? Find Jesus and stop lying.
