Is there any possibility of starting up a brand new P1999v2 based server? I wouldnt want to reboot the current P1999, but would love to start afresh with the timelines of the expansions P1999 enjoyed. Is this possible?

There will be, sometime in the next few months to few years.

Nilbog has stated that he wants to finish the main project (blue/red) before the starts a new server. As to what that new server will be is not yet disclosed.

There should be a stickied FAQ on P99 Green progress / intentions / future plans. No slight on the OP intended at all but we see a thread about this once a week either calling for server wipes or for questions on Green.

The problem with that is it would require the people in charge to definitively say something about future P99 servers, and historically they've been extremely cagey about saying anything official on that topic.

... which isn't to say they haven't said anything. If you read individual developer posts you can absolutely get an idea of what "Green" will probably/maybe look like (completely fresh, 100% classic server, including a classic timeline which means it will end in two years and then something ... maybe a migration of all characters to Blue, maybe just their deletion ... will happen, and then the server will restart and do it all over again).

But all of that is just their thoughts/plans, which are not finalized, and until they are I don't think they want to make an official statement.

To be fair, I would be hesitant to commit to something that hundreds or thousands of people might be looking forward to that I do in my spare time.

Heh, well I meant more that it's a problem for us, not for the developers, but I second the idea that it's perfectly reasonable for them to not commit/publish commitments about anything.

What about a section on the wiki that is just exactly that: a recollection of everything that has been said on the forums, mostly by GMs or devs etc. about anything new server related. In this way it is not an official statement of anything from staff, but merely a kind of ongoing FAQ because this is indeed one of the most frequent and recurrent topic on this forum hehe - with nothing new in between new threads we go full loop quite fast every time :)

This is a really, really good idea! It's also totally within the realm of p99 wiki material. I even believe there are pages similar to this outside the norm of discussion pages.
What would we call this page?
