Classic isn't 50 accounts.

It had nothing to do with players (all they did was play classic EQ).

Quest XP was shut off because after ten years of "beta testing" (when they easily could have made any changes to quest XP ... or anything else) the staff decided to just throw classic EQ out the window for a month on Green ... so they could indulge their unclassic "server first" MMOG speed-running fetish.

If any players are to blame it's the like 0.01% of the server that actually cares about server firsts: "they" ruined classic EQ for 100% of the players on the classic EQ server. But again, it was 100% Rogean and Nilbog's call, so it's not even really any player's fault.

Loramin's a hammer. This topic is a nail.

Right, but a simple (and more classic) fix would have been to cap quest XP gains.

You want to use 50 accounts to gnoll scroll to 60? You can try, but after you get (say) 20% of your XP for the level from quests, quest XP stops working. Go kill something, those 50 accounts won't help (much).

Who cares if the people who prepped for the race get to race 20% faster (while playing by the rules of classic EQ) ... unless you care that much more about speed running than you do about classic EQ?

video game “achievements” (LOL) are one of the dumbest things to happen in gaming in the last 20 years

Way to double down on the idiocy P99. At least if anyone ever calls you out on making some of the dumbest choices ever, you can say you stood by your convictions.

Must feel bad knowing you aren't very creative and lack discipline.

This is totally true. We nerds have always tried to flex our “skillz” against one another, but the whole digital trophy system that exists now has made it much more cringe. The weird jock “esport” thing is so lame.

I know, it's like chess or wrestling. Why must one man prove himself against another? It's all so tribal.

Need something to clutch right now.

I don't understand what you are referring to. My comment wasn't aimed at you if that's what you thought. P99 = people nerfing classic shit for no good reason.
