the really lame roleplaying servers and the teams pvp server used gfay as a trading hub that's about it

Terris Thule occupied the Tunnel in EC from the entrance all the way to Shady, as well as the area near the Bank in NFP. I think this was because the Terris Thule server was a split from when Bertoxx was halved (maybe even split in thirds, I don't recall exactly), and a lot of the old habits came with the players that switched.

I also played on Xegony with a friend at school I saw wearing an EQ Velious shirt one day; they traded in "FayMart". I never really understood why, but I guess I usually play the good races.. so it never was a problem for me.

On an unrelated note; HHK was poppin' on Terris Thule... there were camps in the main room, seers, warrior room, and raiders.. I'm pretty sure.. and always someone/a group upstairs. Now I think everyone goes to SolA and MM? Funny how that works.

^yeah I played on Terris Thule, every room in HK basement was its own camp. It was pretty great. Most people got no idea what WR, GR, LR, RR are nowadays.

It was GBay on Tallon Zek. Most likely because of the high convenience of a direct early-ish level port.

Bristlebroken was The Tunnel.

Yea, but the 3 melee in the group were using 6/26 weapons instead of 9/18. You had two priests and an enchanter that didn't charm. The group was probably pulling a third of the dps a p99 group would (and that is assuming people knew what they were doing. They didn't ;)).

Those 4 spawn rooms put out a lot of pressure on a group!

my memory's a lil hazy bit i think Xegony was the only launch server that didn't use EC tunnel or freeport.

Gfay on Rallos Zek.

it was cozy as hell. I remember meeting people who actually bothered with RPing down there. Finding it vacant / the entire basement being considered one camp on p99 was a big letdown, really epitomizes the loss of the good things about classic on this server.
