There are other servers out there that say they are classic, have things like no maps, no /autofire, no mouse wheel scroll etc. but still implement QoL aspects of the game that some people want and are willing to hear what the players say. If that's what you want go there and enjoyed the game and community.

what servers are those? i know of exactly two Emu servers that have no maps and no mouse wheel scroll. neither one of them is working on adding out-of-era QoL improvements.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think p2002 had things like luclin models, the little compass thingy for whoever uses that, the baz, and I was told they have out of era zones. Don't know which ones.

I don't think they have times either but that's one of the things which they said from the start. They're forum said they were from... Al'kabor.....???server or something like that and so that's the base emu they use. If the server won't allow it they aren't going to change it, but if there are QoL things that will make the games better they'll put those in there.
Also, don't quote me on the server they are talking about, i've never heard of it. I didn't even know that different servers had different rules. I thought all were just like bristlebane which is where I hail from.

P2002 is using a client from the year 2002. all of their client features are era-appropriate for the period they're emulating. they have not altered their client at all -- because they don't need to.

My apologies, sir.

Yeah kind of weird. Just did a check with one of my higher level melee's, 12 level difference and 200kpp difference in gear, same mobs are hitting me/maxing out on me for same damage they were hitting my alt for.

1. DoTs shouldnt be showing damage, only wore off message should.

2. Scrolling out to 3rd person should not be possible

3. Buffs should not be showing duration even when pressing ALT

4. Buff stacking not working properly here. If you have an empty slot on top, the next buff should fill it. Example you have 2 empty slots then Skin Like Wood then SoW. Someone recasts SoW on you, it could goto the top slot. (being worked on according to dev)

5. When casting a spell from the sitting position it should give you message must be standing to cast a spell and not have you stand automatically. there is more than on design.

6. when camping from the standing position it should say you must be sitting to camp instead of sitting you down automatically.

7. not sure if bug or what but it seems like I hardly see my actual weapon swing while in first person view. if you look at this video i am linking, you certainly see the rangers weapons. this is not the case on here unless ranger epics are different. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVrOmBUDBS0

8. pretty sure this is client side but user should not be able to see how much mana he has as a number.

9. level up graphic not classic (Fixed)

10. linking items and multiple chat boxes not classic

11. apparently spell book shouldnt be 8 spells per page but a wierd design (dont remember this)

12. spells take long as HELL to memorize (both to spell book and to spell bar) on eqmaq. not even joking, probably takes at least 5x as long.

Apparently all those crying about these changes have not understood what this server goals is PERIOD.

Nilbog:

" I'll keep making classic changes when I can, regardless if people threaten to quit. I'm here to recreate classic eq; not to make people happy."

[Buellen]

To follow my post above.

YOU people crying about these changes, will not change 8) the DEVS mind so just give up!!!
