Classic EQ

Judging by this forum, the community can't decide whether they want a truly classic experience or not.

Everyone has a different idea of what is and isn't "classic." And this is understandable because every few days post-release there was a big patch that changed the game in some way. So one person's "classic" includes horrible bugs and exploits, another guy recognizes those bugs as such, but only regards "classic" as existing between patches 3 and 5... etc. And of course you have the cognitive dissonance of people who want all the stuff that made their chosen class powerful, with none of the limitations that hinder them. "Classic is only the stuff that helped me"

Lmao. Too true. Personally, I don't really care whether we went classic or not, but I do think it should ideally be 100% one way or the other rather than the selectively classic experience we have today.

Collectivist scum.

Watch the video on home page.
Classic as nothing to do with patches, bugs, exploits, fix, etc.

It refers to the period between launch and velious era (included)
The game we all lived to play.

Bugs and fixes are just that, completly irrelevent in the experience.

The devs intentions were good. The community's? That's subject to debate.

The most important parts of P99 are:

1. Effective anti-cheat systems
2. Single-boxing enforcement
3. Large population

Classic is kind of boring, and I'd personally prefer if the staff released custom content in the future instead of locking the server into classic releases. P99 is fun and well run though.

As a regular cheater since live days:

1. Anti cheat systems - not classic
2. Single box enforcement - not classic
3. Large (current Green population) - not classic
