I hope when velious comes out they have that event again where you can loot a guise or manastone.

I think they should do an event like this every year to re-introduce these items. Since the progress of the server is frozen in time, yet real life goes on the number of artifact items in daily use declines to below Classic levels :/

Over a long enough timeline P1999 becomes a Classic server with no guises, manastones, Thex daggers, Box of Abu-Kars...

Haha for sure, /agree with ya there. In their defense, their guides and GMs asked specifically for people to not use P99 forums and game to recruit, despite people doing it anyways. The fact that there hasnt been a single MQ/SEq ban yet makes me sad, they obviously aren't even on your guys' levels there. Idk.. the boxing thing just bothers me. Box + token = a different end game then i think people are realistic about. + i mean XP wasnt turned on when the server launched, my faith in a working raid is shook.

i wasnt trying to put their devs on blast as much as i was simply pointing out differences. if u remember correctly, it took p99 quite a while to get a real MQ detector (and fwiw, dating to feb 08, going back across multiple staffs for multiple servers, ive never seen a better one than Rogean's).

Hey Sirken, I wasn't attacking P99, I'm just saying...kind of hard to compare a day one server to one that has been around for years.
I wasn't on P99 on day one, but was only a few months behind, and lets just say...P99 hasn't always been the gem it is now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

agreed

I also find it somewhat amusing that you are going to call me out for my guesses about two boxers on p99
"continue to speculate based on your fact-less assumptions"
when you are doing the exact same thing, basically implying that everyone is 4 boxing there. Besides which, I think the boxing on p99 is more like ec mules staying logged in, and logging in other toons for ports, buffs, rezes etc.
Not one guy running his group in seb or whatever

P99 is not my first rodeo. im basing my opinions off of the previous 5 years of being on different EQEmu server staffs. people risk being banned here if they get caught boxing, and they do it anyway, so of course they will do it there. 2boxing (and cheating in general) in EQ is like steroids in baseball. a couple do it, then a couple more do it to keep up with the stars, eventually everyone is doing it or they get left behind.

look, we could release velious today if we didnt give a shit about making sure it worked and was as classic as possible. VZTZ, and LoZ had/have velious. the problem is that they keep re-releasing the same stock borked version of velious. nilbog recently took me on a tour of velious, and i can tell you that even incomplete, our velious is the most functional one i've seen since EQLive. VZTZsVelious and LoZsVelious dont even compare. if you seriously do not believe that, go try any emu server with velious and report back to me.

Not saying i want you guys to rush velious out. I was just saying I hope that when it is released that there is chance that event will happen again. The only reason i am even tempted by this new server is the chance of being able to get some of the gear that will be taken out at a later date (mainly a guise). I am happy y'all take your time and appreciate that. However, please consider doing that event again!

[Sirken]

we have events every 60 days or so, they are rare on purpose. people show up if they dont know when the next one will be [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

but a guise(s) is usually always rewarded.

it is known. (<- because ASOIAF/GOT quotes make everything better) [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just a bit of a PSA: if you criticize this server at all, you are automatically butthurt/jealous/nuthugging the p99 staff. There is no way anyone could possibly have a legitimate criticism of this server, as so many posters in this thread have confirmed. Repeat: this server is perfect and has absolutely no bugs, and nothing bad could possibly be said of it.

[SamwiseRed]

the main turn off for this server (at least the only one ill mention for fear of ban hammer) is the raiding scene. people dont play on here to relive poopsocking. at least, i hope not. this server allows people to relive classic eq. noone with a life is going to be able to compete here on the level some people take it. clearly blue99 needs to figure out something or open up a new server. p99 is way too damn top heavy for just kunark and classic.

another one of the things i dont understand is some of the nerfs/changes that are made according to timeline. why punish new players by not allowing them to camp their own pair of jboots in najena or their own guise in lguk? what is the point of following the live timeline? i mean you are eventually going to stop. open up firepots to everyone, let people experience all classic has to offer.

all in all, even if it isnt perfect (im not playing either so i dunno how bad or good it is) new servers will always be fun. everyone on the same playing field nice once in awhile.

"classified top secret" = you know jack shit.

Wanted to try this server, but reading all the negatives about it makes me pass.
