Sorry but we already more than that and with some people 2 or 3 boxing it is more akin to 100-130 prime time. When Luclin arrives we'll have more real people online than P99 Red. But it will likely never even be close to the congested numbers of P99 Blue. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Luclin is not going to arrive. Luclin is not the answer to everyone's problems.

However, IF someone feels it is a solution... The Al'Kabor project has a PC client available. Super easy to setup. I was up and running in 10 minutes. They DO allow 3 boxing, but no automation. Community is very cool so far.They are using a very old client (circa 2002/3).

I've got a 14/14/16 mnk/shm/enc and was lucky enough to be gifted an AC and Smoldering Brand. Tearing Kurn's tower up!!

Not THAT much difference between clicking book and / all dial and sending a tell for a port in my book. Think people majorly exaggerate this "problem"

You very obviously do not get it.
/who all dial keeps people working together in order to travel. It still has the classic spirit of everquest kinda forcing you to socialize as it is a social game. It also keeps you immersed because the fantasy theme still plays out. Druids and Wizards got that epic travel ability that other players enjoy asking them for. It feels believable in a Fantasy world.

Clicking a fucking book makes the game feel single player and makes no fucking sense with lore/Fantasy world. It's a lazy way of making the game 'easier' and 'casual ' paving the way for the Evolution of eq which sucked ass.

Hey can we also please have mercenaries, I find it sometimes hard to find people to group with and then I have to deal with them being humans, they go LD and AFK, also want their share of loot.

Not THAT much difference between getting healed by a merc and getting healed by a player. It's the same heal! Kek.

The p99 admin have stated time and time again, that there will be no more expansions.

Your best options thru pop are takp and p2002.

If you want expansions faster: p2002.

If you want attention to detail: takp.

P2002 is on velious. Has hotzones. Double exp weekends once a month.

Takp is on kunark. No hotzones. No double exp weekends.

Both support the eqmac intel client and a compatible 2002 era client for the pc.

Each are developed independently.

I am biased, as I am on the dev team for takp. I prefer attention to detail and more accurate content.

I think your link for tak project is incorrect Haynar. .org didn't work but .net did.

Thats what I get for trying to edit on my phone. So many people confuse takp and p2002 because they both have Al'Kabor in the name. Some people think they are the same server even. So I edited sig.

For the most part, most ppl wouldn't notice much of a difference no matter which server they try.

You MIGHT have had a point in Classic when porters weren't a dime a dozen and available nearly 24/7/365 but cmon. When is the last time you wanted to go somewhere and couldn't get a port in 5 min or less? It's a rarity in my experience.

Just my 2cp tho

exactly why we need a vanilla only yearly wipe server STAT

"we" as in your red server? That might help. STAT!
What's "vanilla", isn't that WoW terminology? Not classic, bro!

So if the devs coded PoK books to require you to /who all pokbook /t freeportbook Can u port me to freeport pls? then wait 2 minutes and trade it 50pp and say "ty" then it'd be legit? I still think you and others like you are WAY over romanticizing the whole idea. There's VERY little social interaction or feeling of "working together" when I use DAP. It's basically calling an Uber. Are you gonna be butthurt when we have driverless cars instead of Ubers driving people around too? Cause I promise that's coming lol
