I found this site by pure chance... my friend and I were reminiscing about eq for some reason and I checked out the official site. I saw something about fippy then I read a little on the forums... a couple threads in and I see project 1999.
So, targeting "ad" placement definitely helps attract the type of person you want... people who genuinely like EQ. With that said, I'm sure some people that never played eq would enjoy project 99 if they played with friends. This game is all about community.

I think that people will find it if it's something they want. I found this server last week by mere chance. It kind of started off with a classic era accurate UO server I play on... then my buddy introduced me to a classic DAOC server. Then I got a wild hair up my rear and decided to google for a classic EQ server. After further research I joined up, and I'll be bringing friends with me.
In my opinion, word of mouth is sufficient, but I can understand wanting to advertise to make the population really boom. | ||

I agree with just letting the server pop climb on its own

i agree with the sentiment that 'there are plenty of people who would dig this server but happen not to know about it'.
i have to say the only reason i 'found' p1999 was because i was searching for episodes of the office on 'project free tv' and mistyped my search into google chrome. ^_^ if it weren't for that i still wouldn't know about it. it would be quite unlikely that i would wake up one morning and say to myself: 'wow, let's go find out if there's a bunch of people that have devoted the huge time and resources to recreate authentically the experience of an mmo created 10 years ago'. of course i'm very glad i did find the server, but i'm just not 'deep' enough into any current online gaming community that i would have come across it otherwise. i think that's kind of the point with this server too, that it's populated with people that have 'moved on' from eq classic to rl stuff or whatever but happen to like the idea of coming back and enjoying the old experience. so yes, you may get some kiddies by advertising, but i think you'd also pull in a lot of the right kind of people to. and the best thing is... come the first difficult corpse run, the kiddies will quit! : ) | ||
