How do we get players to return to Project1999?

[Lazortag]

The server has probably lost hundreds of players from unnecessary burnout at the high end. Here, people have to invest unreasonable amounts of time to accomplish things that took less time in classic. With epics out, the gap between the top players and the bottom players increases even more because lots of epics require drops from boss mobs that most players will realistically never be able to see in this expansion (Bard, Druid, Ranger, Mage, Necro, Wizard, Warrior, and SK epics are extremely difficult to get if you're not in a top guild). So lots of people probably quit when they realized how much content they were never going to see, that they rightly would have been able to experience in classic without too much effort.

That being said, velious will fix a lot of the above problems, so there's no reason for any "the sky is falling" type posts.
