You literally have to train, take drugs, kit out ur gaming rig to stand, eat, drink, pee, and poo, and get in shape to endure the marathon of camping on these boxes with tabs full of alts ready to go at each and every camp.

If you work. Raise children. Or are actually physically disabled and can't play for more than an hour at a time. I just recommend you log off and never look back. Invest that hour into yoga, or baking, or gardening, or learning blender 3D. Or electrolysis. Or reading.

If population and politics bother you, then you might consider playing Red. I have a 60 on Blue and a 60 on Red. Very different reasons to play either of them, but the points you're making are often the reason I run around on Red. Pick a self-sufficient class to start with on Red (Druid is an easy solo with solid utility for avoiding PvP) and see how it goes.

The wife and I are a pretty normal family. We've done okay on P1999. I consider P99 superior to the original game due to its time-locked nature and consequent drawn-out pace. It allows players like us to go at our own pace without an unending expansion stream constantly obsoleting our efforts. It didn't matter that it took me over 4 years to obtain my Shadow Knight epic. Suits me fine. That being said we stay out of the high-end rat race.

Well. 4 years isn't in the cards for me. I've already spent an entire decade off and on here and gotten 3 clerics, and wizards up there on red and blue, but no success with being BIS or raids lol. Tbh the minute I ding 50 causes me to usually go mess with other games or wow mythics because of the serious level of instant cringe and regret from trying to interact with other level 60s here.

I try to come up with reasons that I would choose to have my consciousness uploaded to this fucking shitty game that we’re playing in real life..

But I think my goal was to play with all the best toys in the 80s watch all the awesome apocalypse movies and then ride out the final end times after I go over the hill into the aged part of life.

This game sucks but if that was my goal it makes sense that I would try it out.

Irony being that OP is one of the most mentally unwell people on the forum and the raid scene is largely populated by responsible adults with WFH jobs, lives, and families.

There's tons of unemployed nutcases out there in more casual guilds and just solo farming and hoarding plat, arguably they are more attracted to those things than raiding guilds which tend to be highly structured, organized, rules based, and require a fair amount of social skills to navigate.

Hate to break it to you its your structured guilds that supports those crazy pixel hoarders, even encourages them and incentivizes that behavior. Beneath every 5 "healthy" raiders is 1 guy on a shift for naggy, or fungi, or tranny crown.

Anyway. I don't mind because modern wow and EQ both provide alternatives to that sickness.

I play maybe once or twice a month. And enjoy talking to old friends on here. I haven't logged into Green since I quit about 2 months into the server. I still remember some great folks and wish I had gotten their discord info. Never played Blue so I can't attest to that part of the community.

But on Red there's little issue with playing like a normal person. Maybe hop on and see how the community is instead of listening to the forum personas that are literally 0% batting average on accuracy of the truth of things.

Green hasn't been around for 8 years, and epics on green have only been in game for a few months, so I don't see how 8 years is relevant to green in any way.

If you had just started a few months ago and no one knew who you were your application would be denied and you would be a level 50 ranger in banded.

Your eternal neckbearding and nutthugging on blue has served you well along with your forumquesting. It's what carried over into your time on green.

Oh,you're right lol. I'm not a good player or good at the game or the meta. But you've got double digits planar status and a 10 year resume with the project that also is not filthy casual behavior.

You don't even need dragon haste to win EQ. I'm saying that the effort involved in attaining stuff like that isn't worth it for a true casual. Just let someone pl u or leach exp lol.

The game ends at lvl 60 and there is very little sub lvl 30 content in classic. On live there's a ton of sub lvl 90 content accessible to everyone with a weekend an heroic character.

On green the lvl 50+ content is either completely devoid of players or there's so many people it's just a contest of who can sit logged in the longest or how efficiently can you farm plat.

I'm not knocking classic, but it drys up fast and it wasn't meant to be played for a decade. Most of those playing classic for a decade are completely not casual even if they can spin a great tale about their wife (box) afk over at whatever camp for plat. People don't level in bronze and it's even getting to the point where people in banded on green are either scoffed and laughed at or simply ignored for not "putting in the work for at least an FBSS and Fungi".

For p99 to be casual friendly pixels need to cease to matter and people need to learn to adventure and camp less than ideal spots out in the open world and sky.

Where's the pick up groups at EK gnolls? Where's the 3 kids killing griffins over by the bridge? Why is orc pass only monopolized by 1 bard guy with an AoE song in rainbow armor? Oh, yeah, DA idol.

On live i would always do lvl 15-25 over at orc pass, in a full grp. With a waiting list. Of rag tag newbies. I did that after a 16 hr work day with gym and a shower worked in. For two hours, on an sk wearing raw-hide. Because of the ringmail drops.

Sorry.

Green isn't a cool and normal server. It's a lifestyle, and anyone logging in longer than 3 months over lvl 40 knows it in their heart of hearts. Whether it can be admitted or not. It's a great lifestyle.

But its also terrible looking in from the outside as a trucasual who has transitioned back to a few hrs playtime. I don't see it worth the time. Probably because I only have a few acquaintances or like even 1 friend who'm I spend more time PMing than grouping in game..not grouping at orcs with.

Maybe if people spent more time at suboptimal random spots, chilling and goofing around (rather than optimally swarming, aoeing, or thornsing) whole zones dead. The spirit of the Vision could return to Norrath.

But nope. Not when 99% of the people on project 1999 behave like mercs and b-line between anything within agro radius without sitting a minute to med or munch a foraged berry in their rawhide. Tbh it's kind of a lack of population and newbies issue too. Without 2k pop and fresh lvl 20s without high lvl mains/alts the game is just kinda solo quest.

Tbh. Items and levels need to decay. People accruing lvl 60s and pixels is my real beef with p99. That never really happened for the vast majority in 1999.

The game ends at lvl 60 and there is very little sub lvl 30 content in classic. On live there's a ton of sub lvl 90 content accessible to everyone with a weekend an heroic character.

On green the lvl 50+ content is either completely devoid of players or there's so many people it's just a contest of who can sit logged in the longest or how efficiently can you farm plat.

I'm not knocking classic, but it drys up fast and it wasn't meant to be played for a decade. Most of those playing classic for a decade are completely not casual even if they can spin a great tale about their wife (box) afk over at whatever camp for plat. People don't level in bronze and it's even getting to the point where people in banded on green are either scoffed and laughed at or simply ignored for not "putting in the work for at least an FBSS and Fungi".

For p99 to be casual friendly pixels need to cease to matter and people need to learn to adventure and camp less than ideal spots out in the open world and sky.

Where's the pick up groups at EK gnolls? Where's the 3 kids killing griffins over by the bridge? Why is orc pass only monopolized by 1 bard guy with an AoE song in rainbow armor? Oh, yeah, DA idol.

On live i would always do lvl 15-25 over at orc pass, in a full grp. With a waiting list. Of rag tag newbies. I did that after a 16 hr work day with gym and a shower worked in. For two hours, on an sk wearing raw-hide. Because of the ringmail drops.

Sorry.

Green isn't a cool and normal server. It's a lifestyle, and anyone logging in longer than 3 months over lvl 40 knows it in their heart of hearts. Whether it can be admitted or not. It's a great lifestyle.

But its also terrible looking in from the outside as a trucasual who has transitioned back to a few hrs playtime. I don't see it worth the time. Probably because I only have a few acquaintances or like even 1 friend who'm I spend more time PMing than grouping in game..not grouping at orcs with.

Maybe if people spent more time at suboptimal random spots, chilling and goofing around (rather than optimally swarming, aoeing, or thornsing) whole zones dead. The spirit of the Vision could return to Norrath.

But nope. Not when 99% of the people on project 1999 behave like mercs and b-line between anything within agro radius without sitting a minute to med or munch a foraged berry in their rawhide. Tbh it's kind of a lack of population and newbies issue too. Without 2k pop and fresh lvl 20s without high lvl mains/alts the game is just kinda solo quest.

Tbh. Items and levels need to decay. People accruing lvl 60s and pixels is my real beef with p99. That never really happened for the vast majority in 1999.

**a few hrs playtime per week at most.

If you had just started a few months ago and no one knew who you were your application would be denied and you would be a level 50 ranger in banded.

Your eternal neckbearding and nutthugging on blue has served you well along with your forumquesting. It's what carried over into your time on green.

You may think you're a filthy casual but I really don't see it...

Face it.

Eternal neckbearding and nuthugging on blue? I started here in 2015 and I have 0 level 60 characters on blue. Please tell me more about what a neckbeard I am.

I am most certainly a casual in the play time I put in. When I DO play, I play with character progression goals in mind and I actively work toward something, be it the next level or knocking out a certain epic piece. I'm in pretty good gear on green and I maintain a raid attendence between 5-10%.

Forumquesting had nothing to do with anything either btw. Most people in game don't read this shit and have no idea who we are in-game. Only rarely does someone mention these forums to me in game.

You literally have to train, take drugs, kit out ur gaming rig to stand, eat, drink, pee, and poo, and get in shape to endure the marathon of camping on these boxes with tabs full of alts ready to go at each and every camp.

If you work. Raise children. Or are actually physically disabled and can't play for more than an hour at a time. I just recommend you log off and never look back. Invest that hour into yoga, or baking, or gardening, or learning blender 3D. Or electrolysis. Or reading.

Correct, they made wow for everyone else.

For anyone without serious mental illnesses the game ends at lvl 25 and banded armor.

For those struggling with a little bit of obsessive compulsion lvl 45 ish and like solro gear.

For those with severe mental disorder, social isolation. Anxiety. Or some other form of manic, or compulsive disorders on disability, the sky is the limit really. And I am ok with that. I've come to accept that over the last few years.

I'm definitely getting a really elite chuckle from the questors coming up in this thread with denial, rage, or egomania tho lol.

I say, I got problems. If you've got problems. Just own em. Own em and get multiple lvl 60s. Or if you've already got some of them. Give some mythic raids or 115 in CoV a try.

Maybe just maybe have some other treadmills. Running the same times, and training the same course for two decades isn't a good look. Lol.

Totally macequest. I literally spend more time playing League of Legends and Overwatch than I do EverQuest. That 200+ hours is misleading AF too because over half of it was me being AFK on Aradune to avoid losing my summoned items.

The last time I logged onto TLP I realized I couldn't charm guards, and there went my idea for making some quick plat, so I typed /quit and legit don't give a fuck.

My main focus right now is physical fitness, MMA and fucking bitches, and I'm not even remotely kidding. May play during Kunark launch or shortly after when the July 4th experience boost hits, but even that is doubtful. I come to life when warm weather hits and there's like a dozen different women I can fuck right now but I'm trying to be patient and space them out.

I’ve gone from casual to hardcore and everything in between over the years and I disagree. You can accomplish most realistic goals on this game no matter your playtime, just don’t expect to get Vulak loot or some other unreachable feat that requires competing with the sweat lords. When I started p99 I wanted to get epics for classes I didn’t get the chance to on live and to have some cool fashioned out characters.

Imagine wanting people on P99 to think you’re like cooler than them (or something) and just randomly making stuff up to try and accomplish that

OP doesn't seem to understand people change their playstyles and can go from raiding full time to PVE'ing the content for fun and casually. It's how one can meet people out there, adventuring. Everyone should take breaks as well, it's great for you.

Enjoy the game to the extent that your lifestyle can handle and switch it up sometimes. You just may find a better enjoyment out of it and complain less! Have fun!!

Everyone, including me, would be banned on DBG forums. Harassment and hate speech is not tolerated. And I think that’s awesome.

On P99 the same rules are enforced only towards Conservatives. You can be a foreigner and make a ton of xenophobic threads that generalize all Americans in bigoted fashion, but if you tried to make similar threads about Mexico or China you would get insta banned.

If you’re going to enforce rules then do so equally and fairly.
