If the server is wiped?

[letsdance]

i've joined P1999 pretty much 6 years ago, but i also stopped playing years ago (my highest char is 54). i came back to see if there's any news concerning a new server. the problem is, that it will never be like it was back then, if everything is the same. simply because we know too much. people level up alot faster, make money alot faster and get their desired gear alot faster, than back in original EQ. it's mostly copying old strategies.

worst of all is that P1999 also copied the mistakes that were done back then, like items and rules that were changed later. items like deceiver mask, hybrid vs pure class balancing, racial exp penalty... all that crap should be fixed from the start.

some of the rules, mobs and items should also be different (especially raid targets), unknown to the players, so that we have to learn again and not just repeat what we've done for years. that would give us alot better classic feeling than a pure copy.

i'd start again on such a server, but i doubt it would have enough players.
