On the chat box thing, it's worth remembering that the Velious UI did actually have some ability--limited, granted--to separate some of the combat spam out of the main chat window. I'll see if I can find more specifics; it's been an awfully long time since anyone has used that UI.

EDIT as a response to the post below: It has been hinted that a mouse wheel scrolling change may actually be in the works.

With respect I disagree with your statement, As i love original everquest through velious. Hence why i play here.

I also loved PoP , but if i want that content i will go play somewhere else like Tak project or alkobar 2002 servers.

Many people would love it to be as classic as possible, and that's great. I'm glad there's a place for you... it's just not my thing. =)

Personally, I would prefer if P99 took up a lot of the QOL improvements implemented on live.

So then, why do I play here?
Large population
No boxing
Classic CONTENT (meaning kunark/velious mobs and areas)
I've made friends here


Buff timers aren't a big deal, there are workarounds for people who care.. or for me I won't even notice it. Now, if scrollwheel to 3rd person was removed, or classic UI was forced, or open spellbook to med was implemented I would certainly find somewhere else to play.

It would actually be nice if these changes happened, then I could find a new hobby!

Gotta love how many people lol'd and called "classic" on the removal of Luclin models, who are now pitching a fit and crying over the removal of buff timers. Karma's a bitch, isn't it?

Yeah the guys who work on this passion project do a really good job. I won't complain about classic changes, but I would happily switch to a server with a similar population, similar content set, and lots of non-classic QoL features.

Over the years I've decided that while a lot of us would play on this type of server....none of us would make it. We like Everquest--but we don't like it enough to spend thousands of hours working on code and researching database entries and whatnot in order to make a high-fidelity server. The guys who'll do that are the folks who love old-time EQ, warts and all, so that's what they'll make.

I can live with that.
