This WoW nostalgia post is at the TOP of Reddit right now with EQ elitists repping the 7th/8th comment. If you have a Reddit account please upvote it and any subcomments about project 1999. Every time Everquest makes the front page of Reddit we get a pop spike. Let's take advantage of this.

Ib4 "the server population is fine as it is" 2cool4school contrarian wet blankets.
we dont want any more of those whiny, entitled, reddit faggots here. youre trying to ruin the server. let them play games where you can get away with being bad like WoW and LoL.

EQ
-Focuses on community
-Extremely grindy and very unforgiving
-If starting for the first time, you can't really solo at all past level 10(depending on class)
Among countless other things that if you're not familiar with this type of game, it will be really hard to condition yourself to even enjoy it when you've developed a wow-tier MMO frame of mind.

I think this server is more of a "play here because this is what you used to love and want to re-live" instead of "play here for a new experience" because honestly, 9/10 a new player who's only known WoWish type of MMOs probably won't last long, and I could care less.
There was a large portion of people in that thread making fun of the WoW kids because EQ was harder and saying that they wished they could experience it again.

Those were the people I was trying to recruit.

I want to destroy this server. I won't rest until every zone is instanced and every mob drops defiant. The streets will run Red and Black with Prismatic Armor Dye. There will be a new Norrath order and its capitol will be PoK. The Bazaar will take back it's rightful throne as the last /auc cries out, "Not classic!" I will not get lost in my path toward this destiny, for the way is made clear with Backspace.

Does anyone else have any ideas on how we can grow the server pop?
Why do we want it to be any larger? Maybe the Red server but the Blue server is fine and will be bursting at the seams should Velious release.

Don't need more new players asking to 'wipe' the server and start over cause they missed out on DE masks and don't want to pay today's current prices.

Waah this group took the tank in a Fungi over me... boohoo

Those threads appear like once every two months by a single person. Meanwhile, returning players are populating zones and making it easier to find groups. FFS, let's try to get LoIO back to its former glory.

EQ vanilla - LoY

WoW BC - current


people can play all the games

The same way a segment of the gamers of 1999 found EQ appealing, some of those who got into it in 2004 or 2009 or 2014 will too. Sure, most will find it horrible, but some will enjoy it. My wife started MMOs with classic WoW, but once she got past the graphics and the preconceptions about EQ, she's enjoying this server.
