Lol selling 1000$ hot dogs great analogy.

I've been laid to waste.

Dude you had max AA's on your pally before maybe anyone. Breaks my heart that you can't take the classic.

using a complex algorithm only understood by the most brilliant mathematicians, pop is going to increase slowly but surely.

Despite the changes to the exp, Even though its been about 2 years since i truly played emu(back when vztz one fell twice i think), I will still be playing as a new player leveling up, The exp bonus would have been nice sure. But leveling still isn't all that hard as long as you have time, Something I have too much of.

down with rainbowy flower lollipop giggles and down with bonus xp. I say keep shit classic, its for the better if its hard and unrewarding. and thats why its called project 99 and not project something else. its supposed to be classic right? hell, I wouldn't even complain if we had to use the original UI or if we had to stare at our spell books to med. im here for the nostalgia why the hell else would you be here? and have they taken out global ooc suck chat yet? tired of that too. this is making me a grumpy old man. when I open my mouth my father comes out [You must be logged in to view images.

Here are my view points. I am new to this server and hearing a lot of people who have 3+ lvl 60s argue about my thoughts on the subject matter is rather entertaining, but I digress...

The XP bonus was a good thing I felt because most of the population on this server is at much higher levels. There is a limited community at the lower lvls and that "community" was you, your clothe clad toon and the twinks. The twinks, for the most part, don't care to make new friends and just want to kill you and strip what little gold you have. I don't honestly see the appeal of that, but whatever. I got a group of friends to play with me and then made new friends fairly quickly (Shout out to flowers and Legion of Legends) and my experience was very enjoyable from then on. Better than blue honestly, but the population needs to be there.

I do however think that the 75% XP bonus was a little excessive. I originally just rolled a bard to get to 60 as fast as possible and the levels were just stream lining in. It really wasn't that entertaining as it was generally me in a barren zone.

The 25% XP bonus is good for the time being unless they removed it in my day absence, but it seemed to be there while I was on today. But if you really want to increase server pop, start policing lowbie zones for the twinked out lows who just want to kill new players. My friends and I were able to defend ourselves for the most part, but it would require multiple of us and take forever, but most people don't get that advantage. Also, more GM events geared to mid ranged players to keep them playing would help a lot. One of the biggest appeals I find with this server is the GM involvement in terms of events and generally chatting in OOC.

Any new people interested in joining r99 should find a group of people and group with them if you can. Even when a lowbie, battling it out for control of different zones is a lot of fun and you definitely get a bigger sense of comradery on this server than you will ever get on blue.

No twinks have killed me sir. Only one death from some kid(non-twinked mind you) who sniped me after a risky engagement, but I have gotten my retribution and then some. I am just saying either accept new people and help them join the community or accept the fact the server will slowly die due to not allowing new people to join.

I am curious though. Do you actually play or do you just bitch about the lack of server pop on the forums? :P
