You should probably take all that amazing EQ knowledge and use it to start your own awesome server that people could play for free and then cry about what they feel your server should be like.

Why does it bother you so much that it bothers them so much? I don't know what bothers me more. A bitch is a bitch.

Like I explained in the other thread. P99 has monopoly. Even if a better server popped up nobody would play it. They're too invested in their characters here. Everyone that wants old school EQ is here. Making a new server isn't an option no matter how many times you repeat yourself.

And as you failed to understand in the other thread, they have a "monopoly" as you put it because of all the HARD WORK the devs put in just so you can bitch about it. Shit's classic, deal with it.

im not referring to the fact that you want the game to be easiest as possible, everybody wants to take shortcuts every now and again. im talking about all the people that now have no idea how to tell what level a monster is. i may have never gathered as many AA's as you, but i have a basic concept of what a console command is.

i think the term you are searching for is "noobie"

That's just it though, you're not voicing your concerns. You're just being an insufferable cunt. You know how many times we've done this classic/not-classic dance through the years? Enough to fill Swish's imgur account with gifs that's for sure. People are posting shit's classic and not-classic because we've all done this silly little dance before. The quicker you realize that the server will always trend towards classic mechanics the sooner you can deal with the patch notes.

This.

Play around see-invis mobs enough and I guarantee you'll learn to mash the C key.

I think the only people complaining about this are WoW players. If I remember correctly the target window there tells you shit about the mob. Anyone else who actually played classic has hitting 'c' burned into their mind as a necessary survival tactic.
