This.

And I'm a newbie too but I don't want it. Kind of enjoying making my own.

Don't give it to me, I'd waste it.

the idea of making a case (begging) for digital plat... mmm i think i'll pass.

my suggestion is to give out 100pp's to all the newbies to help get them started. far greater impact than dumping it all on a single player.

It would be nice to have 1,000pp seed funding for my main to be honest.

Other than that, I'll be leveling my main and farming my own coin eventually.

Coin gets items, items improve the gameplay experience.

I always want a better gameplay experience.

Why not? Maintaining pride within the bounds of this small community in a ten year old game on an emulator server is going to tarnish my pristine reputation or anything.

pride can be crushed without tarnishing ur rep in life but never said anything about pride [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

edit: whoops looks like you've already made a case for yourself

'It would be nice to have 1,000pp seed funding for my main to be honest.'

i don't think OP will be convinced unless it doesn't take whole lot to entertain him [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Default My pitch for 60kpp

Played on EQ live from shortly after Kunark up through PoP or so.

EQ was my first MMO, the first video game I spent more than 30 or 40 hours with, and I was a youngin. I liked trying to roleplay my characters, I thought enchanter pets were groupmates of the enchanter who the enchanter cast some kind of powerful invis spell on, I was thrilled when I finally finished the arduous grind to level 20 so that I could finally pick a surname (and then I made up a RP backstory for why I picked that surname), etc. It was a blast.


If you gave me 60kpp, I would form a guild with my new bard on the server and dedicate the guild to finding new players and helping them to have the kind of fun with p99 that I had with live back 10+ years ago.

I'd spend a few k to outfit various classes (cleric, sk, ench, my bard, and a couple dps) and then play those characters as needed with the guilds members to help as many people as possible get into groups, since they are the heart and soul of this game.

I'd help out the players in the guild with advice when they want it, from everything of the "best" way to play their class to fun leveling and gear-finding spots to what other players on p99 will expect of them.

I'd work on amassing a collection of cheap-but-effective gear for every class and lend/give the stuff to all these new players with the suggestion that when they find something better, they pass on that stuff to make another new player's day.


Yeah, if you give me 60,000pp I will enjoy some of it myself. But most of it will get spent in those ways, making newb's days and helping people have fun in a guild and in groups, and hopefully helping to boost the server's pop so that it becomes a cycle of more groups, more fun, more people.


That's my pitch for the 60k! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
