I'll just go ahead and point out that this server of theirs was not advertised as being "classic". The focus was always on it being time locked Progression. So, with that said they aren't exactly false advertising.

As somebody stated on a previous thread: for what ever reason they use the same database for all their servers and have no way of simply undoing changes to 1 specific server, particularly if it's something more than three years old.

While this may or may not have been a dumb move on their part, it's not like their goal was to replicate 1999. I don't think they ever said it was.

Basically people join this server to get server firsts and to get a chance to start on an even playing field. For those that have been playing on live but have 500AA's less than their buddy or have always been in the second best guild, this is a chance for them to try and get to the top. For others it's merely a change of pace from seeing the endless mudflation and sick twinking at level one. For those purposes I think the server will deliver to the people that seek it out.

I personally don't have the time to invest in something like this which is the main reason why I will not be trying it out.

It's a bunch of BS anyway about all their servers being on the same DB. EQMac is frozen in time at POP with all the old zones intact, and there doesn't seem to be a problem running that.

OK, I logged on killed about 20 white MOBS and was a whole yellow bar in, I never came close to reaching level 2! Screw that, lol. Plus the new Freeport really pisses me off.

I'm going to log in tonight and play my necro and it's going to be awesome. I'm hoping that sirens in OOT aren't camped too bad, and I can solo myself to greatness!

That server just makes me appreciate the hard work that's gone into this server.

So, first 2 SKs to 50 can off all the bosses in classic, assuming their HTs don't get resisted. Awesome.

but it was awesome to jump on my cleric and necro -nameless server and fart around a bit. Forgot how tricked out I had them. It wasn't enough to get me away from p99, I like the classic game play. I have my own server to rip thru and slash dragons when I feel the need.

P99 for ever!!
