Would you donate for a brand new server?

Why do people instantly equate new server with wiping of old server. TMO can stay on this server with their farm status, while others could enjoy a new server where rotations could be established, high end gear tracked, player sales bannable, and more raid drops no drop. This would cut down alot on rmt. No fun playing on a server where the gms cater to TMO wants and needs. Scream classic, then make changes to favor TMO on raid scene that are not classic.

One server that has both high-end guilds and the rest is better than a segregated community split between two or more servers. And really, there's no guarantee that a new server wouldn't have those people you find objectionable.

oh the irony...for years most of us argued with SOE for a classic server, now we argue with other classic players for one

This.

I think it's safe to say that players running around at level 1 with epic items and fungi tunics does not equate with a classic experience. A new server that is closely monitored would be classic, what we currently have, is not.

Decided to register on forums just to reply here, as someone who does NOT currently or ever really has played on P99 (well I think I played for 1 day).

I want to play P99... but from what I hear, the server is just too evolved from a "new" feeling, and doesn't even have the old feeling. People tell me that most end-game content is hoarded by like 1 guild (we did rotations back in real EQ), and everybody is decked out in twink gear. I hear people are banned constantly (not saying it is or is not deserved, this is what I hear in OOC on other servers) which makes me feel that maybe the GMs are walking around with the overanxious banhammer and that isnt an environment id like to play in. Another turn off, though slightly off topic, is that 2boxing is not allowed. But that is a different issue.

So with that said, I think a new server would bring in a ton of new people like myself who have refrained from playing P99 because they feel like starting on P99 right now would not feel very Classic, BUT the server being a few years old isn't the only reason I don't play here.. If a new one popped up and we all had an equal playing field, you bet Id hop on board.

On the other hand, Velious hasnt even been released. As far as I know, P99 was meant to be Classic--->Velious, asking for a new server now seems a bit against the timeline.

Yes

I would donate for new hardware to fix this thing and make Ol' Blue young again...as long as everyone's data was transferred to it.

Oh hell yeah.
