Cool Sme P99 players are such wastes

I can't believe how butthurt people are getting about some raffles and early Velious access. People playing a free server that is donation only on the graces of folks who truly devote their time, then get upset when those folks decide to devote their time to the cause of the person who created the game that they devote their time to?

Are you guys serious? Can you be any more fucking ungrateful? I mean the people that have been banned I can see being butthurt because they are banned and want to have a wedge to drive in at the GMs, but the general population of players? Really?

They should shut the server down and let you all think about how ungrateful and stupid you are. I would be tempted to in their positions, rather than spend my time and effort on a bunch of ungrateful crybabies.

How is someone getting access to Velious early a pay-to-win? Because they can get items farmed before you? Are you all really that selfish that someone getting something before you makes you cry like stuck pigs? If someone gets 7 days early access and farms spells and armor before I get there, then GOOD they are out of my way when I go to do it myself.

Bunch of crying whiners.

Dude, just shut the fuck up. The entire point seems to be very far over your head.

Not sure it was impossible for P99 staff and crew to help Pantheon project without giving P99 some in-game advantages.

They made a choice, and as every choice, you'll have 2 sides. Point.

But yes, internet trulls owoooww omg ass f00k 4m 7h3 b357 u 4ll 5ucx

Probably a good thing you don't run anything.

So, I'm not sure if you realize but there's a very competitive raid scene on p99, and that's good because it's part of a healthy classic EverQuest environment.

Look at it this way - what if I could round up 20 or so other people and pay the NFL 100 million dollars to win the Superbowl? I'm sure there would be millions of pissed off football fans all over the world.

That's obviously a bit of a hyperbolic analogy but it's essentially the same concept here. I don't really care if someone gets their Velious quest armor a week before me, but what I care about is that it gives them a huge advantage when Velious actually drops for everyone and people start racing for raid kills. I want to lose on Zlandicar because we were out-mobilized or we wiped, I don't want to lose to Zlandicar because the guild competing with mine spent thousands to get all their tanks and clerics in full sets of Velious gear before anyone else could even zone in. And I won't even be able to see Zlandicar if they don't remove things like SS keys and CS portal keys from people who get early access, since that allows people to circumvent the huge bottleneck that is getting access to WW (where 90% of the Velious raid content is at).

Nah, I'm not flailing my arms around and threatening to quit or anything, I'm just stating that I'm disappointed with the way things are being handled. I'm all for Pantheon getting funded and playing it in a few years, but I don't want it to negatively affect my mmo experience now.

Just pledged $200 because I think it will be a sweet surprise when I get all this random Pantheon stuff in 3 years after I have totally forgotten about it.

I am amazed at some of the comments here. Nilborg, Rogean and others started this sever because of the love of the sandbox game. It's their server. They have dedicated their free time, expertise and resources to share it with others. Not one person here has any right to criticize their actions. If you don't like what they've done, just leave.

According to nilbog, he started p99 to recreate as close to an exact replica of Classic EQ as possible -- not to be a sandbox with a bunch of custom shit, as you seem to think.

The issue isn't that they can or can't do what they want. It's the giant hypocrisy that completely undermines everything the server staff has stated over the past 5 years.

Sure, they can do what they want - but they should be called on their bullshit.

I for one am tired of supporting games before they are even finished. It's total B.S. Games should not be even for sale until they are finished, polished, working correctly, full games. More and more we see this, buy the game before it's finished B.S. NOPE. Finish the game, I will take a look at it, and if it interests me THEN I will support the fucking game. Don't ask me to support some game that I have no idea what it will be like, and I may end up hating it. Why would anyone do that? Derp a herp a
