If this doesn't apply to EQMac there is zero reason to return. EQMac is the closest thing the Live servers have to classic.

The amazing journey that has been EverQuest: Macintosh Edition has created an untold number of adventures, and bonds between its players that will last far beyond the years of the game. As the saying goes, however, all good things must come to an end, and so the time has come for the Al'Kabor server.

On Thursday, March 29, 2012, the Al'Kabor server and the EverQuest: Macintosh Edition will be closing. EverQuest: Macintosh Edition has had a wonderful run, seeing an incredible tightly-knit community band together to accomplish feats of heroism that remain unsurpassed in the annals of MMORPGs. Overcoming the challenges of the Planes of Power in their near original form is not a task for those who are not dedicated to victory, and we here at SOE are in awe of your dedication and commitment.

We know you will have many questions about what this means, and we have prepared this FAQ in an effort to answer some of these questions. During the remaining weeks we will also be enjoying some time in game with you, the players of Al'Kabor, both to see if the final raids in the Planes can be completed before the final days of EverQuest: Macintosh Edition and to celebrate the community that has kept this game strong throughout the years. Please keep an eye out on the Official EverQuest: Macintosh Edition sub-forum so that we can communicate with you the days and times when we will be joining you in game.

Thank you all again, and we hope that we can join you in fond remembrance of the unique and wonderful experience that has been EverQuest: Macintosh Edition.

Well, that sucks. P99 will probably be getting an influx in March.

EQmac is shutting down apparently. They're getting free to play for a couple months but after that.. that's it.

Good time to welcome in and shelter some longtime classic-ish eq addicts?

If I had to guess, most of those EQ Mac people will probably shove their foot up EQ's ass after putting years of work into their toons just to be shoved out the door without conversion over to Live. Total crock of shit.

Most of them actively chose to play EQMac because they hated what EQLive had become anyways. I don't think very many would have gone over to EQLive even if they had been given the chance.

Let's get a post on some site the EQMac players might see it. We can assimilate them into our ways.

I feel sorry for the EQ mac players, even if their population is very small.
