Hello everyone! I'm going to be starting P99 tonight for the first time. I played very little EQ back in 2000/01 but never really got into it. I had a friend who's entire life was EQ back in high school, now I feel like I missed out on one of the greatest MMO experiences video games has had to offer. I tried getting into EQ live, but the game is filled with boxers and there are so many servers the population seems really thinned out. I'm wanting to experience the game as it was in its prime and make some friends along the way. I have extensive experience with WoW and have made some lifelong friends in that raid scene, hopefully, P99 can do the same. Any recommendations for casual/social guilds?

It's definitely close to what it was like back in 1999-2001. Everything is there except the original stone UI that took up 90% of the screen.
As far as joining a casual/social guild - I'd probably recommend 'Kittens Who Say Meow'. Nice people that don't take themselves too seriously, yet they successfully raid consistently.
Try not to compare the game with anything modern. She's old, but she's still beautiful. Learning its quirks may take some time and patience, but you'll learn to love the wrinkles on her face....do I want to fuck classic Everquest??
Anyway, for a first time player I would recommend to constantly have the wiki up while you play (
wiki.project1999.com) and probably make a druid. They get a bit of everything, including teleports. So you can make some money and twink another character in case you find some other class you enjoy more.
