Nilbog most certainly doesn't. You are safe.

both games to me are fine. They are just vastly diff at this point. I really do appreciate all the work you guys have done on this fine server.

I have noticed on this server that a lot of the people seem hell bent on getting highest level as fast as possible and playing endgame, that is 10% of this game, if you honestly cannot see that the journey was the game, then you won't be here much longer. If this server caters to you people bitching for more content, it will be the death of the server.

When Velious is released the main focus should be balancing and GM events to keep people interested, that is it..

Crazy how many of you have no fucking clue what classic is.

Don't wana hate Shawk but you come off as the lvl 12 Ranger who can't find a group and is angry at all the other people soloing and leveling faster then you. People wana get high level so they can have the freedom to do whatever they want, that is the power that comes with it. Just because you love playing for an hour or so a day doesn't mean the rest of us do.

With the amount of time between expansions people are going to get bored. If you started playing in October when the server launched you could be a totally casual player and have 2 lvl 50s by now. I see it happening already and we are still many months away from Kunark.

You wanna know what will happen at Velious? Your eventually gonna get bored of eather doing nothing, or raiding the same content over and over. Then most will quit. And if you think "rebooting" the server is going to do any good you got another thing coming. The vocal minority might say they will be cool with starting all over but the majority will not be cool with it.

The reason I created this thread was to figure out if there was a plan. I dont care what the plan is but it would be nice to have an idea before we devote time into our characters. I dont want to be playing a couple years from now only to have an announcement made that they are rebooting the server and everyones characters are getting deleted.

No. The plan is to not lose characters and keep P1999 what it's supposed to be. A classic server.

Classic is up to Velious by community terms. It's when EQ was in its peak. Luclin is not considered classic and will not be included in our server. What happens with a lack of content? Well, there's plenty of other servers in the community that offer higher levels of content, and if you wanted to play them, then you should be playing them instead of playing here. I'd like to see people happy, and if this isn't the type of game you like, then it's not the game you should be playing. To keep playing something you don't like is sadistic in a way.

its not that it is not liked.. it just seems... pointless i guess, to just let the population stagnate due to old content and nothing for anyone to do.

i wanna stay out of this convo as its pretty silly to discuss something so long away :P

Its not just the raiding population. Its everyone. Even casual players will get bored of grouping in Velks Lab, or leveling that 27th alt to 60.

Secrets I understand what your saying but unfortunatly your wrong there are no servers currently with enough population that go up until PoP. P99 and PEQ are the only two servers that mimic what live EQ was and that have enough population to play on.

I'm level 27, I play a good 5-6 hours a day, I have no real desire to get to level 50, I love low level, My play time is probably higher then yours.

Now seeing how were assuming, let me assume something of you, you're a level 50 who is stuck in endgame content bored out of your skull because you rushed threw every level only because some part of you thinks that level 50 will fix all the problems in your pathetic existence? Just a hunch.
