They had a roadmap for their progression on the build, but having just checked the site again, it looks like it may have fizzed out at the end of 2020 or early 2021. I remember the forums dying down pretty quickly once P99 started to catch on.

The most recent dev post in that forum mentions another project called Project Lantern, so who knows if they're even still working on EQC
Yeah I think that's how I found P99 too, from EQClassic forums.

Although there was another "classic" EQ server I used to play on then that I can't remember the name of. I have screenshots from it and a separate install folder for it still. I have no clue what it used to be though. I think it used PoK and other non-classic things, I have a vague memory of that.

Not sure what took me so long to create a forum account, but I've been around for quite sometime. Chirp started out as my honeycomb farmer for stein of moggoks.

My first toon's birthday is November 9, 2009, but I no longer play. P99 gets progressively worse every year. (the narrowness of the xp highway, the overuse of zerg forces, and enchanters being totally OP and not classic)

I do still love the idea of eq though, and feel nostalgic for it regularly.

I've posted 3 times in the last 5 years and still averaging 1.11 posts a day with account created in 2011. Man i talked too much on here back in the day. Somehow Eratani overtook me in posts too. I feel ashamed.

It felt very different when you could trade accounts and when you could trade between red and blue.

Feels really different now then those times.

Running a casino on blue while insidiously campaigning for red 1.0

I even stockpiled pvp twink gear in case they allowed some kind of transfer from blue to red of characters or items.

So much used to be on the table.

And it seems like p99 has been so successful that most of the other emu projects never get critical mass, though there are some and they have good communities of their own.

Probably still Fat. Mad. Sad. Bad. Harrison. Man people used to flame him so hard. Remember back when there was no red forum containment section and people would just roast him in the server chat...

Then there was the great RNF war with Feachie, Tralina and Deathgirl.... oh and Visage was a troll too... so many memories from the golden era of P99

yeah, that's when it was mostly shards of dalaya people.

I technically started on P99 during the big SoE hack that caused all of their servers to go offline for weeks. I was playing EQ2 at the time and a lot of people were taking the opportunity to tell us all to try P99.

After the servers came back I went back to EQ2 for a short time and then realized it sucked. So then I returned to stay :). First forum account, simply named Catherin, was not approved for some reason, and I didn’t bother to try again until sometime later.

It wouldn’t accept the same name again, which resulted in the slight alteration

Oddly I was wondering why your forum account is relatively new (post-Kunark, I believe Kunark was 2011-2015) despite seeing you in Vanilla.
