A new server would be great to capture the classic feel.

Something people forget is that the EQ release schedule was rapid. EQ launched in March 1999, Kunark in April 2000, Velious in December 2000, And Luclin in December 2001. The full EQ to end-of-Velious timeline was less than two years. Project 1999 was launched in 2009 and has been going on for eight years now, four times as long.

The timeline is important, because P1999 isn't really classic anymore. The original developers never planned for everyone to have the amount of gear they do now. Some casual players have multiple 60s. Fungis are everywhere. Pre-20s rogues are running around with epics, backstabbing for hundreds of damage.

A new server would recapture the old feel, at least for two years.
