One thing I like about P99 is enchanter charm never fades. I can log out, come back the next day and still have something charmed. Thanks devs, will send more $ soon
The greatest thing about the early days is that it was a brand new experience and people were more genuine.

There was no guild full of druids dedicated to making money. That is an alien concept when it comes to classic gameplay.

Classic Everquest had guilds like "Legion of the Little Folk" which only invited Dwarves, Halflings, or Gnomes.

So there were definitely joke/special guilds out there. It's not like people didn't communicate or have fun with each other.

Roleplay is classic because roleplay is fun.

Dial A Port isn't roleplay. It's a business operation. Dial A Port is Goldman Sachs not an adventurer. It just wants money, that's all, just like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet do.

Aren't we all faking it at our jobs though?

More than half of the IT industry suffers from 'Impostor Syndrome', for example.

Misconception. You can’t actually suffer from imposter syndrome if you are actually an imposter.
