Personally, I feel like Luclin still had a fairly classic feel, and would like to see it released at some point. However, I don't think it'd be a good idea to enable turning your character into a vendor (/bazaar or /trader or whatever it was) - actual player interaction and communication was part of "classic", at least to me.

Planes of Power, while having some really cool content, was the beginning of the "let's make it easier for everyone to do X, Y, and Z" transition that the old Everquest we knew and loved went through, and really dumbed things down too much with the whole "just click on these 2 books to, in 5 minutes, travel the distance that just last week took you 2+ hours on foot, 1 hour if you had SoW, 30-40 mins if you were a bard, 20 mins if you could find a porter, and 10 mins if you were a porter" thing.

IMO - As much as we all love the true "classic" feel of Everquest, one of the biggest things that contributed to the whole feel was that it was constantly evolving and progressing. P99 is doomed to dwindle if we reach a point where there is literally nothing "new" left to release, because the "feel" of anticipation, need to prepare for the next big thing, or work towards something new, it will soon be absent, and people will look elsewhere for it. Luclin is "classic enough" to me, if it means that P99 can continue having a legitimate following.
