I agree with the original poster. I dont want to speed up the release of Kunark, but i think it would make alot of sense to open Plane of Hate and especially the Temple of Sol Ro sooner. According to allakhazam (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/history/patches.html) Sol Ro was implemented Oct. 13, 1999. If EQ was originally launched March 16 that means we still have 3 months to go before it will happen to our server. Half the server will have planar gear before then!!

I thnk it would just make sense to release the Sol Ro quests so they can be done at mid-range levels as they were intended for. Verant should/would have had the quests in earlier if they could.

After reading this thread I have changed my mind a bit.

I dont think theres a need to speed things up, I remember what it was like when I was a lower level, I wanted this progression to move as slow as possible. This would give me time to catch up to the others, raid planes, and farm phat lewtz.

I feel like theres a new face on this server every day and I bet a big reason for that is because this server is still fresh and has hardly progressed at all yet in terms of new content. I dont think speeding things up will be good for the servers growth, and I think POPULATION is the biggest factor in whether or not this server is an emulation of the classic EQ experience.

Lets just chill out and soak up the classicyness and continue to let the server grow.

However I am still all for adding in the Sol Ro quests sooner, as it will only help the lower/mid level range levels and improve the experience at those levels imo. (and Verant should of had these quests in from the start)
