Whatever your (or my) opinion is on what constitutes classic is beyond irrelevant.
The correct classic eq timeline for me is Day 1 through Luclin. If it doesn't happen here thats ok. I still love the server. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] But thats my opinion. And everyone is entitled to their opinion no matter what you say or feel.

Yes, and trying to re-live all of those bad occurrences in time would be like a government telling their denizens that they were going to "return the country to its former glory" by implementing all of the laws the country had during a past point in time when the economy was better. Sorry everyone, but SLAVERY is back! Just deal with it! That's how it used to be and that's how we are going to do it again!

The error in your logic is you don't get to define what is a "problem", the developers do.
Luckily, the developers are humans. They are not gravity or the rotational spin of the Earth. They can be influenced. Thus, I am trying to engage in intellectual discourse with other human beings who have the capacity to do so.

well this is one of those cases when its easier to create a new Solar System out of the void, rather than to change gravity on Earth [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

(HINT : custom server is the answer [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] )

You can have an opinion on what you do or don't like, sure, but it's irrelevant in the context of the server, since the servers goal is to follow the EQ day 1 through Velious timeline. It doesn't matter if suchandsuch class is too weak, or if suchandsuch zone sucks and isn't worth it, or whatever. What is classic in the context of the server is not a matter of opinion.

This is dumb. If you think classic is slavery, then don't play. No one can make you a slave to the server.

You're wasting your breathe. They don't care what you or I or whoever thinks would be a better experience than classic. At all. Not a tiny bit. They have their goal of following the day 1 through Velious original timeline, and anything you suggest past that is as productive as dreaming about winning the lottery.

You never know what will happen when all of velious is implemented. Just like SOE kept saying this is the last expac for over 5 expansions and have done so in both eq1 and eq2. LMAO.

And one last question. How do you think this server came to be? It was probably from a discussion the developers had and they each gave their "opinion" on what they would like to do and they constructed an outline of how they will do it from that discussion. Hmmmm Makes ya think eh? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Whether or not giving hybrids more powerful spells would make the game "better" is completely meaningless.

The purpose of this server is to recreate the original Everquest timeline as faithfully as possible, a fact which Zuranthium is ignoring because he would prefer it if the developers changed p1999 into his idea of a perfect EQ.

Some of his suggestions probably would make the game "better," but it just doesn't matter. That is not what Project 1999 is about.

...no one ever claimed to know what would happen when Velious is fully implemented. What is known is that the goal is following the original timeline as closely as possible up through Velious. Do anything custom at this point is 100% counterproductive to their goal.

Only on you, and anyone else who can't comprehend mathematical and/or judicious and/or creative thought.

You are not the overlord of the developers' minds. Don't presume to tell me what they will do. They will do what they damn well please and their course of action will likely be influenced by the community, even if only minutely. I'm free to share my thoughts and if you don't like it then either stop responding to my posts with your useless blabber or start responding with reasoning as to why you believe my ideas for the game are good or bad (for after "the timeline" has expired, since you can't come to terms with the possibility of anything being altered in such a way as to not take "the timeline" as the Word of God).

And no one knows exactly what fixes will be contained in upcoming patches and releases and how Velious will be delivered entirely. But i'm glad we have you to speak for the developers.
