P99, why do you not work anymore?

[Jauna]

In the before times you were the perfect Yan to my Yin. Back before Kunark I played you as a Bard to re-learn of how good I had it in current MMOs. WoW, or CoH and even FF14. I would play the fuck out of you getting to 50 as a hybrid before kunark and go listing back and forth between you and newer MMOs always forgetting the lesson of each.

Then, it was not about fun anymore, just something different. Each time I would swing back here I would sell, twink a new and repeat until bored then back to another newer MMO.. then back again to do the same with a new alt. But then suddenly I twinked and played all classes to 30-50ish

But now, you do not work anymore. Got bored with one and bored right back here. I cant even fake it to a point now to even join a casual guild to do something to pass the time. Like alcohol you stopped working.

You stopped working.

You quit on me.

tl;dr after the post I think its time to wipe the server or start a new one.

I love P99 :)

Maybe if you played the game the way it was meant to be played and didn't twink your characters you'd have much more fun? There's a guild specifically for this btw. Maybe instead of asking for a full server wipe you should take a look at how you're playing the game instead of trying to ruin the fun for everyone else.



Heavy /s btw for the fully immersed FQers

Because giving yourself rules to play to make it more fun does not make it a new game, its like that one lock rule for pokemon if something feints its gone forever.

Plus I buffed one of those ASL people a few years ago and they got super mad so I think my account is banned from joining them or something.

Try starting a toon from scratch and earning/questing all your gear? Very rewarding

[jackd104]

Marvel at the thousands of hours the game entertained you rather than bemoan it has lost its lustire.

[aMindAmok]

try red

also, maybe its time to move on from mmo's if they don't give you a buzz anymore.

ps:can I have your stuff

[Nagoya]

Also, the game was not "meant" to be played without commerce with the community, without random lucky merchant-bought MAGIC item, without nice give-outs from people you chat with, without buffs from higher level players etc. <Auld Lang Syne> is adding special rules to their gameplay to make it closer to the classic experience, but to say they play the game as it was meant to be played is an overstatement.

I am a bit like you OP! I have played almost all classes to 30+ and even then when I log in I'd rather just play a level 1 Ogre Warrior or some shit than to play one of my higher level character and grind the long game ugh.

I think we're due for some hard detox.
Good luck! ;)

[Canelek]

Sounds like P99 is working as intended. :)

[skarlorn]

U need a new hobby

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Give all your stuff to me, start fresh in ALS and you will get that classic feeling again. Help me help you.

[aaezil]

go outside

[Shrubwise]

EverQuest the game, is not a race. It is not a 400m sprint. EverQuest is a marathon, and it is meant to be savored. Your EverQuest career never ends, it simply goes on hiatus. EverQuest is not meeting your needs right now; log out and play something else, or level up IRL. One day, it will entertain you again, like it once did.

[Nagoya]

A marathon finishes at 42km and some tho ;)

[Shrubwise]

It’s a double ultra marathon

[Jimjam]

U need a new hobby

I'm having ultra fun playing in a Mordheim campaign atm (It' s a miniature war game set in a ruined fantasy city destroyed by a comet of 'wyrdstone' where gangs of around a dozen men fight it out against each other to recover shards of this precious, magical material).

After each of your game your heroes acquire new skills and abilities, can search the city for riches and artifacts, or if they were taken out of action in fighting have a chance of sustaining long term injuries (or simply dieing for good).

If your in to games with RP elements and character progression, try and get on board with this kind of thing (which, as an EQ junkie I am sure you are). Great way to spend an evening with a few mates!

[nostalgiaquest]

p99 isn't supposed to be fun forever. You play it while eating your member berries and when you get to the point where its not fun anymore, you quit.

I keep it fresh by making my own quests. 1 quest was to farm skellie guards in paineel until I got enough plat to buy the tinkerer bag. I liked it so much i did it again. I took my monk to erudin and jumped the portals till i got my safefall up to lvl. Crud like that.

No way! You'd be welcome. .. they shouldn't have gotten mad at you, anyways, you can just click off a buff ;p

Well said

Nothing wrong with my member berries so far.

Try out Requiem-modded Skyrim, or Spellforce, if you need a new RPG to explore.

It is not a 400m sprint.

You try running a quarter mile in 48 seconds, and then tell me that the last 50 meters doesn't feel like it takes an hour.

Yeah. That's right. I was somewhat fast in college, like half a lifetime ago. Big whoop, wanna fight about it?

Yea, that's nice too. I used to have a nice boxercise and weights crew but folks move away and move on (I know I did for 3 years). Perhaps I need to form a crew again.

[lesell]

I'm sure there's places you haven't done or leveled in, things you haven't seen. I never see people in some of the unpopular zones, like almost all of Odus for example. Min maxxers seem to level the same way over and over. Honestly, instead of a server wipe it sounds like you need therapy or something, if everything ever is boring you.

Skarlorn is fat and has asthma, don't let him fool you. Eq is his excercise!
