I should go to university to "learn" software engineering. I should win the lottery to rent a server and pay for bandwidth (or beg for money). I should hire lawyers so Verant doesn't sue me or shut down my server.

I should also spend $5 on a football, then I can create my own NFL League and play in it as the star player.

Lolocaust. You sir have no feet. You defeat yourself beforw even the fight begins. University would certainly help to learn "programming" but self taught skills can take you a hell of a way.

Verant do not care about your eq server.

NFL is for girls who shy from actual body contact sports.

Begging for money simply works.
P99 supply a service that some are happy to donate to.
Veutube/instasham/snapcrap influencers are always on the beg for comments, likes and subscribes.
Billionaires also beg for money. Works on all levels.

Next?

Also, play a mage or not. Nobody (who counts) cares about your impotent ranting.

A bad idea is a bad idea forever.

Even if you think evolution is real, humans haven't evolved from creating bad design to good design in 20 years. 20 years is nothing in evolutionary terms.

If you lived 100 years ago it would be a bad idea never mind 20 years ago.

It looks like it was done on purpose.

But like I said, it's all fixable.

I always wanted to play mage 50+ without epic.

Sad I will probably not get the opportunity.

The Mage epic is nothing compared to charmed pets.

You can't even retrieve items from an epic Mage pet.

This server seems to be very Enchanter friendly.

Otherwise just role-playing is the reason for being a mage on p99. That and it's actually a chill experience with minimal plat invested only on spells.

U don't need the Ferrari to play EQ the beat up old 1981 BMW with stock tires will still give u a solid 35mpg

I'm confused. Is gugg making the argument they are too disabled to play a solo self found mage on p99?

Enroll in a course at DUIK University then you won't be so confused about everything because he has the answer to everything apparently.

D.U.I.K Don't Under-utilize Inherant Knowledge.

Gugg just wants a mage that is easy to play.
Has summonable ft items.
PetHeals like a Beastlord or POP era Mage.
He needs a root.
More summoned pve opponents.
Sorta like an OOTB emu install with zero changes...

Also while the emu software is reverse engineered.
The word is that the initial creator asked Verant for a job, they said nope. He asked if he could take a look under EQ's bonnet. The creators being conceited and thinking he'd have no chance of working it out said sure bud, knock yaself out. Effectively, he had written permission to pull that shit apart. Or so the story goes. Ever wondered why it has not been squashed?

Food for thought Mr I want what I want but dont wanna have to do anything to get it..

It is Millions of lines of emulated, cobbled together code sorta organiclly created over years of painstaking experimentation. Who knows, the work old mate did to rip apart EQ proved he had programming chops and he did secure gainful employment as a game programmer.

Anywho Gugg, maintain the rage and complain some more so I can show the kids how even adults can have tantrums and give up.
