Imagine how much more compounded the top heavy server that lives for years at the end of its progression would be if AAs were added. P99 would play more like THJ than classic EQ. IMO that's the biggest reason why the progession stopped where it did.

And you'd have manaburn deathsquads to rival with. And chanters with dire charm because we all know chanters need a power boost. I don't think people asking for that grasp the repercussions this would have on p99.

Nobody plays TAKP anymore and quarm still has less players than p99 blue and green combined. The heroes journey has a ton of players, nearly half the total number of daybreak's everquest live total daily average player base but not everyone wants to play a custom everquest. I played it and it was definitely fun but it is not what i am going to invest my time into for the long run and i think most the people there would also leave for a new P99 server regardless if velious locked or PoP locked. P99 with a server that does unlock luclin and PoP would bring all walks of life everquest players to P99. P99 has been the greatest servers. I even enjoyed P99 when it had all the bugs back in 2009. A new P99 server that only goes to velious would still be the greatest server yet imo, but if luclin and PoP is guaranteed for later, it would be the best of the best of all times.

Again, they are contractually prohibited from going past Velious. Don't think anyone wants to have them breach the contract and have their permission to operate P99 revoked.

Quarm is actually getting more people lately (1k on average on weekends), specially with the Zeal addon ... no need to belittle other servers, just to make P99 look better, just sayin[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The fact that people are now willing to run a black box that gives full admin privileges and system access to make the quarm jank go away shows how bad we need fresh p99

Oh sweet irony..

Last I tried quarm it was 1% classic EQ, 24% custom content, and 50% people saying how much better it is compared to p99.

It's like that episode of Southpark about the hybrid car people loving the smell of their own farts.
