Excited to see that there is so much support of a new server. Can't wait for the fresh feel, mutually competitive and supportive play.

Don't need to wipe this server, just release 2.0 once Velious is finished (as in, fully patched to the end of timeline) and have it be on the original timeline.

They are never wiping the server, ever. Another blue server releasing in the distant future is a possibility but unlikely. All else is trolling or pointless discussion.

Thanks for your portion of the pointless discussion

Exactly. This isn't your box. And it isn't my box either.

Project 1999 is Rogean's box. So it doesn't matter what anyone in this thread says, and it doesn't matter how many polls Ziggy or anyone else posts The only thing that matters is what Rogean wants.

Rogean has been very clear on this topic: he promised to never wipe the server, and he intends to keep that promise. There are multiple posts from him saying as much. If Rogean's mind hasn't been changed in all the years that he's been running this server, chances are that yet another poll or "please wipe" post in this thread isn't going to change him.

If you really want a fresh server then get on the beta server and help test. The sooner Velious gets out, the sooner the post-Velious patches get out, and once all of those are done then the staff have floated the idea of a new box. But not before then (unless you count the team PvP server, which also is delayed by Velious).

I was under the impression that the current p99 server is a beta (albeit long running) for the real server once all those patches/expansions are done. At least I've seen staff mention that before. Anyone got a link?

its very unlikely. if for no other reason that the very slight admission that this option is even being considered by the devs/rogean/nilbog it would totally undermine the stability of the server.

then again, p99 existing at all was very unlikely considering. so who knows? its a static server (or will be once velious and patches are added), it can't go on "forever".

I would wager that most of the people posting here are not "sub-level 50" and several of us have multiple 60s. That being said, I believe it is less of an issue of "have and have not" than it is an issue of the server timeline being way off-track and the economics and mechanics being really flooded and wonky.

Of course some of us that missed the "Golden Age" of the server in Classic format want to play a Classic environment - that's why we play here, isn't it?

People know the game so inside and out anyhow that it would be flooded with people leveling fast and camping up nice shit anyhow almost immediately, but we would have a wonderful window of challenge and a blank slate to build on.

People will turn this into a power-gaming event regardless, which is awesome and I am all for it, but I do love the thought of a reset in terms of sheer enjoyment for players and a social environment that is less "buy epic, install fungi tunic, solo to 50 in 5 days" feeling.

I sort of loved the struggle of piecing together a group of janky ass mis-matched tanks and healers and inventories that aren't Kunark twinked. It feels a little Warcrafty with all the advantages that players have currently.

This of course is just my opinion.

I love P99, but would support a wipe more than playing here.. I'm not 60, and by no means ultra uber..but have a couple low 50's, and a few 30-40's.. Gear(probably 50k worth), a fungi, and about 30k pp.. A wipe from start would be more beneficial than detrimental.
Those hoarding and selling everything will either start back up ( good for them) or just rave quit (good for the server) .
It's ever crack for a reason, anyone playing this long is t quitting from a wipe, and if they did.. Oh well.
