Poll: How do you want p1999 to end?

Greengrocer (Peace be upon him) will make his own server where everything is meat and we'll all go there.

Turn on perma-death and have a last man standing 24 hour event.

Classic to me is launch through PoP. If I recall PoP or the first expansion after that had the highest subscriber base in EQ. Thats how most people remember Everquest, therefore classic. Most people werent even max level in this era, Velious raiding was more mainstream during Luclin and beyond.

Agree with you on your timeline. Only problem is that vanilla EQ becomes less and less recognizable after Luclin. By PoP it's gone completely. I'd even say stop at Luclin. But... PoP was still kind of fun, in its own way.

Honestly I'm disappointed that I missed out on pre-kunark p99. To me true classic is pre-kunark. Maybe someday p99 will have a pre-kunark server that will stay pre-kunark.

I'd prefer it didn't end, but if it has to I feel for me anyhow, post velious would ruin the community we have now. Having an addition of a bazaar would make social exchanges less often. And luclin just seemed to bring on the scamper of a race for aa and augs and such that created a lot of "I am better then you egos" . This is only my own personal experience.

I myself never acted this way. I can safely say at one point I had the best necro on my live server, won many events and tournaments. I also later had thr best monk on my server until I was surpassed to #2. Never did I have an ego of others don't matter. But I saw close friends and many others in their race to chase end game forget those that were below them.

Myself I noticed this occur most in luclin and planes of power, where the old work together effort diminished.

I'd like to see this server remain what it always has been. The thing soe wasn't. A good community of players loyal to their favorite game.

My vote was for velious to hold the end.

In regards to daybreak progression server, their progression isn't true classic. Many of thr old items weren't added back in and they used all the current revamped zones. I was playing on live and in ragefire until I came back here. It was far too easy to lvl there and in one weeks time the economy was ruined because u could bring kronos over snd sell em. I personally brought 20 kronos over and sold them for 5-8k ea. This of course enabled me to be pl'd to 50 in 4 days for 20k and deck out my mage to 218int.

It got boring after a month. I think the transfer idea is terrible.

Luclin is last classic EQ expansion, even if the lore is a bit weird and some of boss fights are boring.

PoP while cool is a different game.

Twilight just like how SoE did us on Al Kabor

I voted for transfer to a progression server to show confidence in my own idea, but truthfully I'd rather this server go slowly to PoP. The reason I was thinking some people might like this option, is because some might find it better to go to a progression server (starting in Luclin), rather than simply quit the game one day.

Obviously, Progression servers have always been terrible at recapturing the first several expansions. I'm not sure if this would destroy Luclin/PoP as much as it did Original through Velious. My guess is, that it wouldn't be as bad.

There has been a lot of comments on custom content. The first time I heard the idea pitched, I didn't like it. It seems unlikely that a few developers on their free time will match what a relatively large team of paid developers came up with. But I can't say that I would quit if they did go the custom content rout. I am skeptical though.
