Default Progression server launch

Then, players exploit a pay-to-win feature on normal servers and instantly start with level 50s, begin transfering the free plat and powerleveling alts. Server is immediately locked but players that got in (even with exploits) are allowed to keep playing.

Something tells me if this was P99 the devs would be smart enough to shut it down immediately, wipe it, and start it right. I guess you don't always get what you pay for...
I love p99

Lol pretty sure the exact same thing happened last time they opened a "new" server. People leveled to 50 using their boost at the start.

Half-elf bard's broke #Everquest. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] We're looking into it. All insta-level-50 half elf bards on Ragefire are asked to sit on their hands...

was just half elf bards apparently.

Ragefire existed in EQ long before WoW existed anywhere.

I cant tell if you are trolling. But Zordak Ragefire first appeared in the Kunark era in 2000-2001.

WoW came out in 2004.
