Are there any actual new players?
I created a Barbarian Rogue and have met a few higher level people that were very helpful (shout out to Yuchan and Potatus) and I've somehow made my way to Greater Faydark at level 5. I'm asking out loud if any other players around my level want to team up, but they seem to be alternate characters that are powering their way through the content. Should I just quit now or are there genuine new players out there that are looking for adventure and friendship?

I dont think many people group at lvl 5 because its still fairly trivial to solo for any class. Theres more groups as you get a bit higher. In GFay you can try looking for groups at the orcs near Crushbone, or in a few levels look inside CB for groups.
Even if theres not many "new" players, there still should be plenty of alts grouping. Also, the real grind is from 50-60 when Kunark comes out, so assuming you get to 50 before then, you will be on a level playing field with everyone else. | ||

There are TONS of brand new players and returning players on P99. Green was a huge boon to the population. I can't tell you the number of people I've met in game who said they use to play back in the day and decided to finally try P99 due to green.
Please don't give up, P99/Classic Everquest is hard but very rewarding the further you get. Levels 1-20 can be some of the hardest levels, Put your head down and push through. Send /tell to people and do /who level 5 10 to try and put together groups. Don't get discouraged and check out the https://wiki.project1999.com ps. Rogue is a grouping class, Be aggresive about finding groups to join. Get on group lists for dps. Find out who the leader of the group is and ask them to add you to the DPS List.

there's almost always a group at orc hill but the fastest xp on faydwer from 4-8 is probably the kobolds in steam. rogue doesn't have the best synergy with most gnome toons but you might be able to recruit a tank or something from gfay. you should be able to use commands like /who all 3 7 lfg to see who's lfg.

Also, I suspect a lot of folks are in a similar situation to me where life's responsibilities necessitate soloing most evenings, just in case we need to drop everything to take care of something around the home. But still, I'm looking forward to grouping one of these nights I know I can play uninterrupted! Don't lose hope for groups! | |||

I came across a very scared necromancer last week. He had run from Nektulos to Highkeep to get his son's pet spells for him and died in the process (being a necro, guards didn't like him) and had to run back again needing an invis from good samaritans along the way.
People are still new here, the biggest barrier to playing P99 is still getting it set up ^^ | ||

If you get a chance to benefit from a little bit of easy-mode by grouping with other people's twinked characters, I recommend it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] The journey to 50 (and especially to 60) is long. You'll have plenty of harrowing adventures along the way.
