let's see how far we can go with this sandwich analogy

Oh...sorry....I didn't realize you were delusional.

except you're not a paying customer

it's a free, private emulator run by volunteers. the whole point from the very beginning is based around excluding luclin, that's why there's the year 1999 in the title project1999.

"well i think the server should be have luclin and be run MY way..."

is being entitled and dickish. it's kinda like showing up to a free soup kitchen and yelling at the volunteers for not serving whatever food you're in the mood for that day

Honestly dude he just made a thread throwing ideas around, spurring discussion. Your posts are a bruise on an otherwise healthy thread.

getting pretty tired of the amount of whiny threads lately about how project1999 be this and that thing that some asshat personally desires

Yours was the only whiny post on this thread.

ps I have worked in a soup kitchen as a volunteer and they appreciate suggestions and often implement them.

LUCLIN added so many great features.

AAs - Balanced out Druids, Rangers, Wizards, Mages, Necro's and Knights in raids
New Spells - Further balance (druids as main heals, what??)
Tradeskills are useful - TS in Classic-Velious are almost useful. If not for JC and Alchemy, they would be
Bazaar - Dealing with greedy resellers is the worst
Raid Mechanics - Too many people focus on Vex Thal's dumbness. The raid mechanics of the mobs in Ssra, The Deep, Akhevans Ruins, Umbral Plains, LIS... We're fantastic. Cursed Cycle, Emperor, Thoughtfiend... Shei Vinitras is probably the best fight in Luclin. Death adds to prevent zerging, death touches to prevent stalling/adding urgency, fixed spawn sets of adds with mixes of slowables intended to be offtanked and mezzables, intended to be CC'd, room based mana drain that stressed the importance of placement

Luclin confirmed 2nd best expansion behind PoP.

Agreed 100%.

I'll even argue that Luclin and PoP are classic. Maybe not classic Everquest per se, but rather classic MMO.

The things that set pre-PoP EQ and other MMOs are mainly instancing (raids and group) and group interdependence.

Luclin and PoP still had that classic, old-school MMO feeling with static camps, competition for raid spawns and classes having very well-defined roles in groups and raids. It was just better with AAs and new spells, making every class powerful and fun to play without ability bloating and anyone being really overpowered.

Warriors were still raid tanks, clerics were still the best healers, chanters still the king of CC, etc. It was just like what most people here consider classic (classic+kunark+PoP), just better.

wut? It's the most damaging expansion, only ahead of PoP slightly. It completely skewed the classes.

Most of you seem new to the forum (only seen you posting for the last few weeks/months) and are probably unaware this thread pops up regularly. Most of the old timers/regulars are tired of hearing about it. Luckily the Devs have been extremely open about their plans and have 0 intention of including SoL or PoP. So no reason to get so mad when someone brings up SoL or PoP. Likewise, don't be surprised when you start SoL/PoP Thread #4465235 and people seem annoyed.

Well that really doesn't give the vets/regulars the go ahead to just be nasty to ppl. Although from what I've seen on my high lvl char in the past I'm not all that surprised since it seems the vet/regulars feel this is "their special pond" and anyone else should shut up or leave. Maybe a reason that a population of 1600+ is a record here..

No it doesn't give them the "go-ahead" but they are free to say what they want because they are humans. And I don't blame them in this situation.

Not to mention you sound an awfully lot like you think people shouldn't be able to speak their minds. That is a dangerous thought process.

At least he was able to thoroughly derail the thread.
