Why to not wipe the server in a few easy-to-understand points:
1. My character is not your character to take away from me, and I don't need you trying to inception the devs to take them.
2. Not wiping the server is not an imposition on you. Similar to getting gay married, it doesn't hurt anyone, but some religious asshole/gamer dick who blocks marriage/resets a server because he can't stand to see others getting along well on something he doesn't approve of is an imposition.
3. Ain't nobody got time for that shit.
4. I don't know what your experience on classic was, but mine included playing with a bunch of richer than god players, and trying to work my way up in status.
5. Other people having stuff doesn't mean you can't one day too.
6. Enforcing a raid/guild rotation is easier than restarting a server.
7. Velious will hopefully shut you up

1: Yeah that is the shitty part :\ It is hard to accept having things taken away from you when you weren't the one who screwed things up.
2: weird but i think the point was it wont affect me if the server doesnt wipe, true enough.
3: Pretty sure if you're playing p99 to begin with you have time for that shit.
4: Mine was starting brand new on day 1 and having real classic progression and not being stuck in kunark for 2 years and counting :P
5: Do you even play on this server? This bullet point reply is deserving of its own thread.
6: raid mobs arent the reason people are wanting a wipe, at all.
7: same shit different continent.

You point out the obvious in the debate for a server wipe... It is clearly logical that there are people who want a fresh start and people who want to continue.

In the end, its clearly been stated there will never be a wipe, which is a shame but I rather enjoy the idea of a wipe and experiencing that part of a servers life. It definitely is one of the best times of a server... Day 1 experiences are a game all its own.

Like I said though, there won't be a wipe or even a new server... Which is a shame... It really is. If we lived in a perfect world, we could cater to both types of players but we live in a shitty world with downsides to everything.

I wouldn't mind a wipe or a new server. Fresh servers are so much fun, constantly 'challenging' with everyone working together to hold down simple camps, no twinks zerging everything or people getting powerleved.

Yeah it would only last a limited time until were right back where we started, but honestly that's where the real fun ( for me at least) lies.

Tldr suggestions: wipe server or rotate between two servers 'restarting' every couple years to keep things fresh ;(

In before flames

"Samoht" has posted 45 times in this thread so far today, and it's only lunchtime. I'm sure it will be well in the triple digits before dusk.

You don't need me to explain why this kid has a screw loose somewhere.

so you're willing to crash the population of the existing server in order to fulfill the EQ experience you missed for being 4 years late to the party? and i'm the selfish one? dumbass.

Don't make assumptions about when I started playing based on this forum account. My first character was a 50 cleric named Tasrin who was a member of Fish Bait back in the good old days when Durison was GL.

You STILL are not dealing with the issue man. You're like the little kid that throws a tantrum in the floor because your friends want to go to the pool but you want to stay inside and play video games.

Its cool, obviously some people like different things. I prefer fresher environments. If you like the current environment that's cool too.

Maybe a solution could be reached where both groups of people could be happy.
