Is the Raid Scene on Project 1999 Toxic?

Project 1999 is 1/20th as toxic as Classic EverQuest was. You can trust any single player in the tunnel to xfer gear for you, Classic EQ, it was getting stolen 9 in 10 times.

Raid content was for the sweatiest of sweat lords on live. People didn't even complete VP on most servers until after Velious. They changed servers to join better guilds.

Instances are bad, and so are rotations. Project 1999 itself is almost 15 years old. The content is forever locked. Competition is needed to keep interest. There's only so many times a person can clear uncontested mobs before it gets too boring to log in.

What we need is racing with lockouts.

Also i love how you cry about unclassic racing and then immediately say instances like Loramin dude wtf

There is toxicity, but it is in different places. You raise some really good points though, especially about trade scammers (or lack of).

Guilds are a lot more open too. I think exclusivity can be symptomatic of a kind of toxicity. But we don’t have that here. It seems pretty much any guild will accept any applicant. There isn’t the club culture from live. People are also much more willing to share knowledge here.

You’re post is really appreciated Twochain, it has helped break my groupthink on the toxic aspects of p99 and realise p99 is better than it tends to get credit for.
