I still don't understand the draw to twitch/streaming. Unless you're doing some interesting content (raiding) etc. How is it more enticing than watching golf?

a lot of people (myself included) stream to bring new players to the server, and let them know via another medium that classic EQ is out there and waiting for them. its an easy way to find those people, tell them about the project, and answer any questions they may have about getting started. i have already spoken to easily near 100 people that have found P99 and started playing because of the streams (ive also spoken to players that played years ago, back in the 2boxing / global ooc days of P99, and seeing how much better the server has gotten in 3 years has encouraged some of them to return).
most existing players don't watch p99 streams unless 1) you're streaming unique content, or provide very very entertaining commentary, 2)they can't log in the game for whatever reason but need an EQ fix, 3) they enjoy the chatroom during their downtime/medbreaks.
TLDR - dont hate things that bring people to the server
