I'm ready for new green. Let's go.

1. Put level limits on items and buffs.
2. Put in anti powerleveling code to prevent bards/monks and whatever other classes do to powerlevel someone.
Zeb is right. I think you're overestimating how many loser neckbeards there are that will do that and that those kinds of people will find a way anyways most likely. I'm not saying there aren't plenty of loser neckbeards playing P99, but what you're talking about is super sweat, highest echelon neckbearding. And unless they're making a lot of bank with their RMT business, and probably still even if they are, their lives are probably pretty sad anyways so why not just let them have some "power" in a free-to-play emulator of a 20-year-old game.

The obvious choice for pure classic-ness is March 16.

Two and a half months after their given earliest date sounds good.
I would honestly love that. Would be cool to basically have the timeline following the same day/month dates

This was my biggest letdown about green. Velious originally released in the winter of 2000 (in the northeast). On green it came out in like the middle of summer, just wasn't the same.

New green needs legacy items to not be removed and made no drop. Only thing to keep it from becoming an absolute neckbeard cluster.
Can't have so doesn't want others to have. Sad sad.

I wouldn't consider myself a neckbeard at all but maybe I am.

I feel like that suggestion and your response is like why do you even play on this server? They have done all of that on live for you.

I play here periodically because they do not make those changes. If I wanted a different game I would play a different game. Maybe you should consider that option since you seem to think everyone here is a loser.

Fortunately it's actually pretty easy to avoid super sweaty neckbeards in the game, unlike here on the forums.

New server has literally zero powerleveling/twinking. People actually go for Mino axes. There's 3 or 4 groups in every dungeon (Befallen, CB, BB, LGuk at least). It's a fresh economy and everyone being at the same level together makes it easier to form new friendships that will grow into the guilds.

I'm guessing some delay is at least good so that a guild wouldn't rush sleeper, kill immediately, and then everyone start waiting for the next green.

Really this was just an excuse for me to post because I want a new green too.

It's not like anyone can rush Sleeper before Velious releases.

While I would certainly love them to disable/reset the Sleeper event and keep the Warders respawning forever in Green 2.0, that's a different discussion. You can't stop the sweat. If you give neckbeards the opportunity to 'Fuck You, Got Mine' they will take it every time. It's just a fact of the universe and there's no sense getting mad about it, and it isn't a problem for ~ 2 years of a new server.
