So is this accurate? Epics went live after Velious was released?
That doesn't seem right.

EDIT: according to the patch notes, the time line in that jpeg is incorrect.

*Level 1 Character Purge*

The Level 1 character purge announced several weeks ago will take place
on Wednesday, September 27, 2000, at 7:00am PST (GMT-7). Any level 1
characters that haven't been played within the previous 30 days will be
deleted. If you wish to keep any level 1 characters that you may have,
please log in and play them between now and 9/27.

***Patch Day***

As a testament to our on-going goal to constantly provide more content
for EverQuest players, today's patch primarily consists of *many*
content-additions to the game.

*New Epic Quests*

We are pleased to announce that we have implemented new "Fiery Avenger"
style quests for every class in the game (including paladins). The
ultimate reward for each quest boasts a custom model with unique
particle effects. We think that you will be pleased.

Good luck to everyone on your quest.

Edit: I guess Guineapig just wrapped up that whole argument with a solid date.

I thought this timeline was pretty interesting.

It shows epics being introduced after Velious came out, but right before 2001 (ie, within the 25 day period between velious and 2001).

It's pretty cool actually.

sorry, my bad. I think it's sad that they couldn't get their own timeline right. It clearly shows epics being released after Velious in that timeline image (link above), yet patch notes prove that Epics were released on September 19th and Velious was released on December 6th.

Thank you for finding the patch notes!! It came up in IRC or something during server down that epics were post-velious and I saw this timeline and almost bought into it but I just knew epics were out before that.

No problem. I've seen people spout all sorts of nonsense about the timeline on the forums. A few months back people were claiming that The Hole is supposed to be released before Kunark (actual release date June 22, 2000) so, um.. yeah. It's always better to look it up for one's self.
