This thread is making me reminisce about the early years on the server. Obviously true 1999 classic can't be recreated because we the gamers are aware of many of the secrets and the progression. But even 12 or 13 years ago when the server premiered, EverQuest still had a little bit of mystery alive in it. And I'm really thankful to Nilbog and Rogean for giving us the platform to experience that again

y'all remember when Rogean and Nilbog would come down in the form of gods and buff people and interact with the player base? I remember when they gave my mage C3...i was a god myself for a few hours lol.
And yea, the server culture was 100% different, it was a lot like the culture on other emu servers, where people just give away stuff they aren't using. It was a pretty neat time to be around. My first guild was the all mage guild that pretty much owned oasis for a bit lol. good times

Yeah, in my opinion this game did accomplish it's goal because when I look back it was very much it's own thing and something I'll be nostalgic about just like I am for the original EQlive. Just as I remember fondly doing NToV on Tarew Marr with Enlightened Dark, I remember it as fondly here with Rampage and Awakened. They were very much their own things, but being a part of it and seeing it play out was awesome. It came a long way from 150 of us in Vanilla with global chat joking about all the bugs, to the utter depths of despair of late Kunark, to the thrill of Velious beta and release, and reaching 2600 or whatever players. When I started I didn't think it'd even make it to Kunark. Nilbog, Rogean, and Sirken get a lot of credit, but 100+ people contributed to this game, from long retired devs like Uthgaard to long retired GMs like Eunomia to bug reporters like Daldaen (the self-nerfer!) and Ele.
