A solution to expansions

[Brontus]

The solution is simple:

1) leave blue server stuck at Velious for the purists

2) create a new server that goes forward with future expansions.

This way everyone wins. Freedom of choice.

I wouldn't mind Luclin, but we don't really need many new zones when there are plenty of existing zones always empty.

Wouldn't be fun to add Luclin and only places be filled is PC/Dawnshroud/Grieg's End

The custom content is a good idea, but only if they add custom content to existing dead zones. Give people more of a reason to go into EVERY existing P99 zone. That would honestly benefit the entire server instead of having 30+ people in Mistmoore/Unrest/City of Mist/Seb every day.

There use to be server held events by players all the time back in the day durring classic/kunark with small giveaways, some of them just for fun.

I plan on doing things like that once im lvled back up here. Specially giveaways.

Player made content sounds horrific and would not recommend it unless it was another p99 server.

Id love to see this place go to luclin and PoP then stop. Even if it was a new server id def play it.

[Ravager]

The solution is the same as it was back in 2001. Play something else.

[fadetree]

No. Just no. Play something else.
I'd like PoP, but it isn't going to happen.

Nah, Kunark broke the itemisation philosophy of EQ. Assuming planes or dragon itemisation didn't.

That's retarded and you're retarded for saying as much. You should feel a lot of shame for how stupid you've been and reflect on your life.

Itemization isn't the problem with SoL, the shitty generic content in the expansion, the shitty changes to the economy, the zones that makes earlier content obsolete, the idiotic hub zones and the dumb ass AAs are the problems with SoL.

All taken together SoL broke EQ so bad that only mercs were able to eventually somewhat repair the damage, and if that is your idea of EQ then you need to just fuck right off and die somewhere.

SoL changed EQ from a game where everyone had a whole stable of alts and a huge number of zones of a wide variety of level ranges were always populated, to 90% empty piece of shit game based around grinding away at the same shitty character for years on end to get more dumb ass points.

How about this for choice: Play Classic EQ on p99, or fuck off to EQlive or the EZ mode server if you want moon cats.

Everyone wins: People on p99 don't have to play with the mentally handicapped players that thought SoL wasn't the most god awful piece of shit they've ever seen.

And said ree-rees who love idiotic hub zones, auction houses and moon cats can go fuck off somewhere never to be seen from again.

It really sounds like a win-win all around.

If the time ever comes that p99 becomes psomethingelse, I will write custom content for you all and you all will love me and we will all be #winning.

I don't know whether to reply to someone who proclaims such specialisation in Retardation, but I guess I'll bite.

It is a matter of perspective on where to draw the line.

Kunark and Velious made the population more thinly spread and encouraged grinding away at the same shitty character for years on end to get more dumb 50+ hell levels and faction/gem collection quests.

From the subtext of your post it seems you thought I was defending Luclin? Quite the opposite; personally I'd rather an expansion less server with no planes than one with Kunark through Planes of Power.

My aspirations are rising for the Plane of Boobs.
