[JboxCSU]

Enjoy that free 30 day subscription.

[Sorn]

Hooray!

[Terdnado]

Congratz on being the first person on p99 to not pirate their copy. I applaud your morals sir.

[LordRayken]

Wow, how much did you spend on that?

Edit: I hope not much, because the money you spent on that to some random ebay or amazon seller could've been donated to the Project 99 team...

The main thing is he gets to play ;)

[Pringles]

Please tell me you didnt pay $200 for this...

[nyclin]

going by that keyboard in the background, you're prone to making bad decisions with your money so i won't judge you

[Bones]

what? alienware keyboard is swag

[Ele]

I need to find a warehouse with a crate of these bad boys so i can make some bank if people really buy them.

The computer was a gift from my Wife. How nice of you to pass judgement on somebody you don't even know. There's always one...

You don't win a prize for being an unemployed temp living with your Mother, but thanks for playing.

I paid $20.00 and $6.00 for shipping.

[bubur]

this thread makes me happy. well at least the opening post and the one directly above me. welcome!

[dslaybac4]

Welcome to the game man! It sounds like you are excited to get started and it is awesome to see someone just finding p1999.

Don't listen to these other elitist douchebags who have been playing this game for far too long and think it merits them being a prick to someone just coming in. My dad just started and bought his copy as well. Some people enjoy having the real thing and not downloading products illegally.

Hope you enjoy your time here!

[Kranzo Quickstrike]

Thanks, dslaybac4 and bubur.

My whole reason for getting the game again was to play it like it was. I started playing a few days after it originally came out. When they changed the look of the toons it wasn't the same. I left a few months after that. Been playing Everquest 2.

Purchasing the game was and is the right thing to do. How everyone else obtained their copy is none of my business. I just patiently waited and watched Ebay. I just happen to get lucky with the copy I got.

I'm all set and ready to play. I'll be on sometime tomorrow evening.

[dealicious]

Get me in game ill be more than happy to help you out a little!

Hey, don't get mad at that poster that your wife made a bad decision with money.

[Feanol]

Back-lit keyboards are so pr0 if you're not a very good typist. Makes advanced hunt-and-peck much easier for simple folk like myself.

[nyclin]

You don't win a prize for being an unemployed temp living with your Mother, but thanks for playing.

if i was a temp i wouldn't be unemployed

welcome to p99

Do you hear that? It's the sound of no one caring. Move along...

[Seltius]

Grats I remember when I got my first copy of Everquest I was so excited to open it up and start the 6hr installation process.(might have been faster but felt like days later) Then went to get online and everyone suddenly needed to use the telephone... /sigh memories

I remember when I got Cable (was actually during UO. EQ was later). Was awesome because then I could just sit on the phone talking to my friend while we played. Pre-2000 ventrilo.

I still had a copy of Titanium from way back when. So, in fact, I must be first. :P

[Charlievox]

if i was a temp i wouldn't be unemployed.

Having once been a temp, I can personally testify the being a temp and being unemployed are not mutually exclusive.

[Tahlvin]

Congratz on being the first person on p99 to not pirate their copy. I applaud your morals sir.

Many of us (probably even the majority) played back in the day which means we did own it in the first place.

[Pringles]

I gave SOE enough money for 4 accounts software + multiple expansions + sub fees for 5 years, I feel ok having downloaded titanium.

[Swish]

Agreed, bought a ton of expansions and made a second account after selling my first one (which involved buying expansions again!).

They've had their pound of flesh from me over the years.... plus Planetside as a subscription.

[dafier]

Just like Pringles and Swish I too paid out LOTS to that shit company. And....damn I loved Planetside before it was ruined.

[Crawdad]

Infantry Online and eventually Planetside ate up entirely too much of my life.. and years and months of EQ subs/xpacs. SoE has been a benevolent overlord/time vampire throughout the years.

[Beckoning]

Welcome to Project 1999! What are you planning on playing? I've got an enchanter, necromancer and shaman in the infantile stages and would gladly meet up with you to churn out some XP!

[JboxCSU]

Hey, don't get mad at that poster that your wife made a bad decision with money.

Ive never seen such hate over a keyboard.

[Garadan77]

No lie, lol this is my first day back and on the forums. First forum post I read is about a guy excited to come back, then here comes some upset little boy comes in to determine how much money you should spend on your products.

Not to mention, regardless of how his purchases are perceived, I imagine you're quite unaware of his occupation. Could be a doctor, lawyer, or any other generally high salary occupation.

$500 to me, a decent amount of money

$500 to someone with a much better paying job, probably not so much

[Tahlvin]

Oh man, I miss Infantry Online! That was the best. I think that game even had a hockey map at one point that I loved (unless I am confusing it with some other game). Chambert's Moon!

[perditionparty]

I've never seen such sensitivity over a keyboard.

[kagrobb]

I'll admit to still owning 4 copies of Titanium discs from my 14 years of on-live

[Secrets]

Burn Titanium ISOs to disk

Sell on Ebay as "Only Disks" for $60.00

???

Profit!

[Dillian]

Congratz on being the first person on p99 to not pirate their copy. I applaud your morals sir.

i think the law reads if you already owned the software/movie/music then you can make, or get as many back up copies as you feel you need. It doesnt read on how to get them though

[Dillian]

what? alienware keyboard is swag

the logitech G510s is swag

[Gandite]

i have a copy of titanium on my shelf if someone wants to send me $texas

[Brontus]

Congratulations and welcome to the real Norrath!

I purchased Titanium on eBay for $25! :)

[Gustoo]

Titanium is a late game piece of media and no self respecting EQ guy owned that.

But it's eq emu gold tho..

[curtischoy]

When I started on this server I bought the discs too. It was like $30 or something. Then I lent them to a friend and haven't seen them since!

Welcome to p99!

[Jaleth]

I still have the Kunark, Velious and Luclin boxes, discs and instructions. Got the EQ Platinum disc set then went for the digital downloads. So by the time Titanium came out, it was all downloadable content for me and have all the expansions for Live up to Morrell Thule.

I bought Titanium over 4 years ago for $9.99 plus S&H though.

[kennymack007]

Congratz on being the first person on p99 to not pirate their copy. I applaud your morals sir.

It might not be morals. I have a friend that wants to play, But can't follow step-by-step instructions to install a bit torrent, deamon, p99 files etc. I bet a LOT of people on p99 have the hard copy.

[Kranzo Quickstrike]

No, it's morals.

I'm done with thread now.

[Swish]

It's been said before but if people could download directly from the P99 site we'd have a lot more players casually trying the game. I believe it...just legal issues :(

[dafier]

I have to admit, I looked all over for titanium and couldn't find it cheap at all. I bought 'Underfoot' off steam a while back for only 10$. It's too bad that client doesn't work for P99.

Does that have all expansions up to Underfoot? Interesting if so...

I bought my copy, but back then it wasn't $200 on amazon.

[Morlaeth]

Like you don't have a discount anyway...

I don't work for Amazon, I like having free time =p

[mgellan]

If Daybreak offered Titanium and RoF2 as an online download they'd make some nearly free coin and make everyone in the Emu community very happy. Maybe one day...

I would state the massive irony of this post because the server you're connecting to is emulated and not owned by SOE... But I'll just stop.
