I think we should consider a p1999 guild. People who will help out fellow guildies. Whether that's training people encroaching on our camps or adding to the dps race. Just to show we aint gonna just lay there and take it. Maybe we could make q difference. I like p1999, but I want a fresh start on new server.

My last post may have been a bit strong worded. We clarified the knowledge base entry today with the PNP here: https://help.daybreakgames.com/app/a...ail/a_id/16211

The section we updated that will matter most to you guys:

There will be no first in force or first to engage rules arbitrated or enforced by a Game Master on any server. We believe players can resolve disputes about camps and raid bosses between each other. Game Masters will not help negotiate disputes between players and guilds.

The new Ragefire server will NOT have 24-hour GM support that will let us handle disputes over camps and raid targets. This is true on live servers as well, and players there have been able to work things out.

It’s important to me to be clear about what support we can provide before you guys take the time to contact us.

Guess they will have PnP rules , so not that bad.
Casuals will stick around.
Everyone should check it out at least. It will be fun IMO.

Paying a full sub price to play a game that was released in 99 is a tough pill for me to swallow. I realize there have been many expansions, but I'll tell you what, if they said, "Hey, for a one time fee of $20-$40 you can play on the progression server" I'd be more inclined to give it a go.

But paying monthly takes the wind right out of my sails.

Sounds like it could be a ton of fun, though. A fresh start for everyone seems like a blast.

I'd do it if they do it right, but it seems like they're taking the low maintenance/max profit approach... little by way of guides preventing bad stuff happening.

If people fall off the wagon there due to poor management (SOE was always terrible for managing its EQ1 community, particularly when I quit in 2008/2009) I'd expect P99 to grow even more.

Only if you fix (wipe) the server. End game/raiding is toxic on P99. Economy is fucked. Most people will do the same as they will on Ragefire. Poke their nose in for a bit at the lower levels, realize end game is a shit sandwich and quit.

What would you change? I'm in total agreement except I haven't quit. Economy is classic, sadly - no EQ server in history avoided mudflation.

Its the people that make it toxic. Thats never going to change. Wipe would do nothing.
