I play here because it is classic. I don't want custom content or further expansions, because EQlive deviating from classic (OoW, GoD, LDoN, LoY all killed it for me, Luclin/PoP were excusable) is what made me completely hate the game in the first place.
Yes, the room for expansion and growth on a Velious-only server is finite but that's not a problem in and of itself. On the infrequent occasions I get bored of EQ, I do something else with my life for awhile. I inevitably come back, and it's good to know that it's the same game as when I left it. Been going at it on and off for 17 years and this is still by far the best game of my lifetime. I don't understand the need for an MMO to continue to occupy 100% of your interest now and forever lest it be declared "dead".
