Out of respect for what the devs built here. I have enjoyed this place for so many freaking hours it's only commensurate of my time here to have respect for the place. P1999 is an impressive and important part of EQ history. I'm worried about it's legacy if it doesn't shore up certain things that could alter how folks remember it.

I have had jobs and even mini careers where I stuck around for the 'people'. EQ catches me in a different way. I stay here not because of any person but because there isn't anything like it. Live moved on and outside of emulation there is no other way to peek back into late last millennium of EQ gaming than here or a couple other servers.

Nilbog, Rogean, Haydar, Telin, the names go on and on and it's regretful that I miss any. The CSR team, Menden now plus Medris and others. Even folks from the past. Uthgaard. Sirken. Braknar. Nowadays Mortecom, Stigion, Visceryn. So many working behind the scenes over time. For no money all out of love of the game.

If the movie is about to end and the credit scene hasn't been done what are we left with. A field of dreams was built and we all were able to enjoy it.

Yeah. I like that sentiment. I have way more great memories here than bad tons fun times on red99 nuking wizards and druids in mm and lfay and getting ganked im fearrott.

Levelig in CT back in 2010. Everyone getting mad because me and a mage buddy could easily duo lord in guk and we did the same at solb royals with a trio.

Lots of really good memories in blackburrow. Cb. And chewie ambushing us at guk bedroom. Fireplace in unrest. Getting lost and falling in traps in befallen.

For the most part I love all the devs. It's actually hard to run a box.

Before I was just ruminating on why there's a desert here where once there was an oasis. There's a place for that.

It's definitely better to remember the GOOD times of p99 tho. Chasing Nizzar and his group out of karnors and across dreadlands and FM to OT lol after he went after us...

Getting the drop on gloinz wiz after he tried to levi snipe us in com. Getting insta gibbed by two epic rogues just after zoning into lguk. Heartbrand loosing some uber item on his charmed pet after wiping at efreeti.

Hanging out with my pal in the rear entrance to bugs in solb and with my mage on an alt warrior douing up thru nsjena!

Just straight up grand memories. I miss being able to play like that. This place WAS definitely good. Why ppl gotta be mad and mean now. I don't get.
