Is P99 "finished"?

Daldaeni agree with a lot of your opinions about views and corpses.
Is it even possible to not use the titanium client for an emu server?

A few servers do it. The main example would be the TAK server. I suggest you look into the downloading it and playing around just for a half hour or something, to see just how different the game plays when you don't have all the "quality of life" features that you have on P99.

You will very quickly discover those features aren't just quality of life, they impact gameplay immensely, making certain aspects and tasks far easier/faster. The game is much easier as a result.

That being said, I don't know if it's even remotely feasible for P99 to swap client with all of the modifications they've done to the stock EMU code to get P99 to the point it is today.

And you had to remember which hotkeys were in which slots on the other pages when you had to cycle between pages to reach those more rarely utilized hotkeys, being careful to not cycle too many pages and hit the wrong hotkeys.

Forum enforcement is pretty much nonexistant too for the last 6-8 months. Very out of character for this place.

It's well past time for a changing of the guard, for the guards' own sanity I think. I'm at the point where EQ has no mystique left and I'm more nostalgic for Luclin personally, and I have probably 10 days played on p99 ever.

Hope they open the database up but there is probably still profit being derived from it, so enjoy the slow decline and look to that other project for the dream.

Profit? Wtf are you talking about...do you seriously think they are making a profit running this?

And I'm sorry that your overstimulated entitled little brain is now feeling many sads about EQ, but don't tell me what I'm supposed to do. Enjoy the slow decline...'that other project'....hmm.

That's an anonymous troll that you're responding to. The moment you hit reply, you lost. He does have a point, though. If there was any reasonable amount of forum policing, accounts like his would never make it to thousands of posts without getting banned for trolling. [You must be logged in to view images.

I wouldn't ever use hidecorpse anyway, rich boi like me got tinks to fill with that fine steel you don't loot.

You don't get 200k net worth RMT-free by lvl 56 in 10 days played without playing right.
