For my friends who didn't want to hop over to P99 it comes down to lack of access to the Titanium client and one of the dll files getting flagged as a virus.

I also think without a sub fee and being an emu server that may or may not be here in a few years without substantial financial backing as other emus have done scares people off.

A lot of the general complaining about p99 on the daybreak forums about boxing and stopping at velious are the things I enjoy about it. P99 is also the closest experience to the original eq community.

I can see this being a legitimate issue since a lot of people seem to be scared to download torrents. If only there was a way to use the actual EQ client for this server I think the population would be higher.

I wonder how many people are boxing a couple accounts while a few thousand people wait in the queue~

I the two days I ran around two the newbie zones, Innothule and Everfrost, two-boxing was very common and mage-bot armies (e.g. one guy boxing a full six-character group of mages) were encountered multiple times.

I really do like the fact that there's no boxing here.

Can't find Titanium on the internet? Seriously? Damn. I don't understand the adamant refusal to play on p99. That makes no sense to me. Only thing I can think of from my friends is they don't find the game interesting any more or flat out don't want to get addicted to Evercrack again.

I think if they added separate instances like they have on live, p99 would be a much more enjoyable experience for everyone.

Everyone? You mean like the people who didn't like original Everquest? Cause I sure as hell don't want instances.

I would go so far to say that 95% of the technical issues new players would have are extremely well-known, and the solution easily found on the tech forums. You have to be *really* lazy to not figure out how to run this old thing.

But maybe for some people, it is just some basic misguided mistrust. They think some monster virus from out of hell is going to eat their pron or something. Little do they know that the browser they use is more of a monster virus from out of hell.

Unless maybe their trepidation is right. Maybe this entire scheme is actually a botnet for the Chinese government. Makes sense. Server isn't going to Luclin because, after the snafus having to say "Velious" created for their hackers, asking them to say "Luclin" was just a bridge too far. The Chi-coms run a tight ship, but not that tight.
