So now that all the bugs have been worked out...

I voted no. I don't want to have to start over because other people cheated. I put too much time and effort into my characters and gear, only to have them wiped because other people couldn't follow the rules. If the server was reset, I would not come back and I'd imagine others feel the same way.

This poll bothers me, because the majority of active players haven't been around as long as some of the oldtimers still left. Obviously people that started later feel that they're at a disadvantage and what not, but it's not our fault they joined the server late, or that other people cheated.

If my character was wiped I would not come back.

Sorry, I don't buy this '10-20 was so horrible because 80% of players had fungis and would solo the entire zone!!' crap.

Haven't seen anything like what is described there. It's just BS imho. Yep, you see an occasional fungi twink soloing, but 80% of them having fungis and soloing whole zones? Get real. I know I sure can't prove that your experiences weren't true, but 99% of us read that and laughed pretty hard at the ridiculousness of the claim. Honestly, finding groups at low levels on this server feels easier than it ever was during Kunark on live.

its not about who has what, its about the server being absurdly unclassic due to item/toon saturation

Most (just like now) don't give a shit what random guild is on top or who is rich off what, the server in it's current state is very unclassic and discussion of another server regardless if it's just wishful thinking is a legitimate topic

The server is on a slower timeline which means more pp, more items, etc. No one disagrees that the extent of this on p99 is unclassic.

But you, and everyone who wants a reset, is saying "for the sake of classic, we need to do the ultimate unclassic thing and reset the server!"

Ain't gonna happen.

precisely in the 2 years it would take for the correct timeline to reach velious it would most likely be complete and of era

lets get that second much more classic timeline box going (will donate)

Wouldn't splitting the already small userbase to another server be even more toxic to the community?

yeah its a great point in favor of starting a server that would not be purposely stalled for about a duration of 3 years in addition to the current server which is already 2 years past being stalled

Give it up. You're complaining about something that's nonclassic and asking for something even more nonclassic in order to "fix" it.

If P99 isn't 100% exactly everything you want, well guess what? It's not exactly 100% what anyone wants. But it is god damn amazing. The people who can't enjoy it for what it is need to gtfo rather than demand the staff cater specifically to their desires, especially when doing so would probably work contrary to the desires of a lot of the rest of the server.

and no launching more server(s) is not more unclassic then how bad the resource saturation problem on this server is

more then 1 server is classic

You seem to act as if you're not demanding it, but you're quick to constantly bump/repost about your stance on the matter. None the less, Nilbog and crew have already said it won't happen. A progression server after velious is at the end of its times, sure that might be in their thoughts. Other than that, why keep trying to advocate something that will not happen? Use some fucking periods for gods sake.

3000 population at prime time and 1500 during non-prime is classic. Extra servers were created to handle the population load, not to provide more sandboxes to play in. Space (real or virtual) is only created/utilized as the market demands. A server with prime-time population of 1000, peak (ever) of 1500, and non-primetime of 300 doesn't need more sandboxes.

You'll notice Everquest Live has reduced servers as the game's population has decreased. By your philosophy, Everquest Live should still be creating additional servers and my Live server, Mithaniel Marr, should not be combined with four (that right?) other servers: Saryrn and the two that Saryrn merged with.
