People didn't have high speed internet either! Throttle everyone to 56K speeds! Then throttle the CPU and memory to 1999 specs! Then force everyone to go buy a CRT monitor with max 640x480!

dumb

I had cable in 1999, never played EQ on a modem ever...

If Teamspeak and Ventrilo and Skype all died for a day, and Rogean did a repop. Oh lord Jesus would that be a sight to behold.

Before TS/Ventrilo me and my "regular group" would just bridge our calls and talk via regular land line.

Lets have a custom OS that has to be installed so that we can monitor what programs someone is using in the background, and then ban them for trying to load or install any other program.

Also people may be able to talk on the phone still so maybe we should have regional LAN parties where computers can have the P1999-OS installed, so we can monitor the usage of any type of voice chat between players. We will need people to monitor these LAN parties though because we don't want people to talk to each other, since that would be cheating. Maybe we can look into sensory deprivation tactics like they use in Gitmo so that no sound can be heard from outside of EQ. I think Sirken could then monitor these LAN centers by video and ban anyone found talking to eachother.

I agree with this.

AS AN OFFICER, I THINK IS SPEAK FOR ALL BDA IN SAYING THAT VENTRILO/TEAMSPEAK/SKYPE ARE NOT CLASSIC. BAN IT AND BRING BACK AOL INSTANT MESSENGER

I had to go from cable in Las Vegas to dial up when I moved back to OC For a few months. I was in OC when akunark dropped. I was pretty pissed for a while.
