The best people on P99...

[Swish]

The best people on P99 are the new starters without a doubt. I spent 30 minutes in West Freeport tonight at the gate, and some time briefly in Paineel near the zone out to Toxxulia.

In that time I had a few great conversations with people keen to tell their story about having just found the server, what they played on live, how excited they are to experience classic EverQuest again. One player said how much slower the XP was compared to the live servers currently.

I tried to convert a level 3 paladin in Freeport to reroll a SK (while on my necro) and he stated how great shadow knights were, that he had a dark elf SK back on live and we got talking about that (I've got one here).

I bound a few people at the gate, they all tried to offer 5gp, 2pp or whatever they could. I was just there waiting for someone to come back from LD.

In summary, we have a great community here... I think those of us that have been here for months/years should reconnect with new players as often as possible. They'll remind you that 1999 EQ was a great place to be, and amid all the camp lawyering, petitioning and the raid scene as it is I think sometimes we need to wake up to that and keep the community a nice place to play.

Yes, someone that plays on the red server just said that.
