I see your point. To answer the question, just my opinion of course:
1. p02 is going to PoP eventually.
2. Upgrading the client...is just that. It's better and almost all players on the server want it or have expressed interest.
3. It's refreshing to raid in Velious and actually have normalized raid mobs. The resistance isn't as stupid as P99s. Caveat - I am not saying it's easy mode, but it's more from what most of us remember from classic periods of EQ.
I am not going to write this as 4. but I want to just pass on information from what I heard. TAKP doesn't have the server population that P2002 does. Meaning, it's smaller. Also, I've heard a few things from regular players who played TAKP before switching to P2002, and it's not that the TAKP support is bad, but there were a few things that weren't exactly good which caused them to switch. I am talking about people who are casual family people.
Personally I have nothing against P99, TAKP or P2002. AND, I find it a shame that there were differences that couldn't be worked out in order to pool all the resources, but it is what it is now.
Also, I am a personal fan of your coding experience, Haynar, so again, I mean no offense.
