Summer is over...time to try P99?

[Wenuven]

Hi folks,

I'm an EQ vet, most recently I played a lot on EQ Mac. Unfortunately the server culture has gotten a bit toxic lately so I've been thinking about trying out P99. I'm curious, how things are going over here?

From what I can tell from the boards, it seems like the server is extremely healthy an active! Can anyone get me up to speed with the current state of things? How is the low level population? Any tips for a new player? How about end/game raiding? Are there any things related to the server history, current climate, future outlook, etc. that I should be aware of?

Thanks in advance for your responses! Looking forward to getting to know some of you!

Edit: should clarify that I intend to play on BLUE.
