Y'all have a weird idea of what classic actually was.

Posting things like this on a messageboard dedicated to 3 servers created and popular specifically for the purpose of offering the otherwise extinct experience of playing Original - Kunark - Velious everquest with as close to original mechanics as we can muster is ridiculous. Play shards of dalaya, live TLP, or PEQ the grand creation, all great servers that allow you to play non classic everquest.

Coming to the p99 community to ask for post Velious expansions and making a case for them when 100% of the non P99 community is already dedicated to that version of everquest is despicable.

The fact that all the other servers go beyond Velious is evidence enough that the later version of the game is popular.

But it's not popular here.

It's like going to a candlemaking club and telling them how much more efficient and bright an LED lightbulb is. Like...duh? Some people like candles. P99 likes everquest that doesn't go past velious.

I'm not against P99 at all. I appreciate the idea, and don't like how Daybreak's progression servers release a new expac every month. It's just weird when people on here act like everyone quit playing when Luclin came out because I don't think that was the case at all. I think more people started playing as the hype took off.

I also don't remember anyone on my servers digesting the content that fast 20 years ago. I remember raiding Plane of Hate when Luclin dropped because I just got a Woven Shadow and thought it looked SO COOL on the new models.
