what purpose would a whipe server? I mean really?

You want the cost of items to go up?

Or you just want to group with less twinks?

You want to see people with a nightshade wreith and patchwork tunics? for like a week? I see that all the time now btw, I have no head face back slot gear and on a very awesome 41 toon.

I started on p99 3 months ago, and never did I have a feeling that there was too much twinkage, too little classic feels, it just felt fine.

If you dont like the end gamers and think a wipe will change that, within 2 weeks TMO will be farming everything, and within 2 months it would be the same as it is now. But all the casuals would suffer and loose their progress.

the first progression server on live had unlocked kunark in 8 days.

Server is fine IMO but whatever rogan wants to do.

That said, if a server wipe is coming why would I not just RMT for maximum pixels right now. If you're going to delete characters, there is no reason not to hack. Really, that's a reality so dont disagree with me about it, you have to counter that with an actual solution to that issue, not a disagreement.

seems to me like a wipe is a detriment to the casuals, to the hard cores not so much.

because for the first few years of the server many things were not classicized

This is a novel concept that has compelling pros and cons. There is a certain amount of unfairness in wiping characters that people have spent hundreds of hours developing. But, such an action would eliminate many of the problems impacting the server and help promote a more "classic" gaming experience.

Ultimately, the most entertaining option would be to make Sleeper's Tomb a PVP zone and institute a character wipe after the Sleeper has awoken. Ironically, guilds that are in the best position to wake the Sleeper would be the least likely to do such an act. It would be beyond entertaining to watch Guild X fight for the continued existence of the server, against Guild Z, which wishes for everything to be reduced to a blank slate. This would give rise to the most epic pixelated battles of all time - the fate of Project 1999's Norrath, literally, would rest in the hands of the defending guild. The entire pixel universe could be destroyed if they failed.

i like the idea of making it a pvp zone. also, the server doesn't have to be wiped right then and there.. it might take a couple of weeks for the world to end, and perhaps there would be a way to take something with you to the new world...

To flesh out the great Sleeper's Tomb PVP wipe concept in greater detail, the server would only "end" [wipe], if the Sleeper is allowed to complete its entire cycle. If guilds can ban together and destroy the sleeper, like those on Rallos Zek, then the world should be allowed to continue, and the cycle should reset, with Luclin's expansion date marking the re-spawn date of the Sleeper.

And so Project 1999 continued until the year 2204.

Regardless, when the server's time comes, a final Sleeper rampage should mark the end times.
