Tor at least comment on why there is no comment? Maybe?

That's what weirds me out. Project 1999 seemed to be a passion project that its leaders really cared about, so the silence we've been getting is strange and disappointing. I can understand taking a backseat for a few months due to burnout or personal / professional obligations and such, but Green is well over 4 and 1/2 years old at this point and people have been speculating about the future of the project for a very long time.

Part of me still hopes there's going to be a surprise announcement and a new server launch soon once the current round of TLPs start to wrap up, but meh

You aren't gonna find your childhood happiness regardless of how many new servers p99 cranks out

I find it funny that there's an ongoing theme of this sentiment and I have to say, I don't understand it. It's dismissive, a touch mean-spirited, and frankly it completely misses the mark. I don't think anyone on this thread has said that they're somehow unhappy, or that it is even about nostalgia. The fact is the gameplay changes dramatically on a new server and after the planes and raids have all been completed 100+ times, the market is saturated, and the lower level zones are empty, there is no just "rolling a new character." Grouping at low level is scarce and you are forced to stick to the same zones over and over, or you are just forced to solo. Not everyone wants to play a shaman or necro.

If YOU are unhappy and reliving your past, don't project that sh*t onto others

I just get high, log on and screw around

Who needs more than that?

It's not about finding missing happiness. For me personally anyway. It is about starting in a fresh world and meeting the population of the server organically in the same state of nakedness as it was 25 years ago.

It is about the journey. People seem to forget the reason they probably picked up Everquest for the first time. Say what you want. The possibility of getting a few more years of memorable experiences in a living Norrath is very appealing to me. Doing a curated meta when the timeline is over just doesnt appeal to me though, quite the opposite.

I just wonder why all the silence about it? There is always a reason for being silent on a topic many are interested to know about, and seeing the most recent patches leading up to end of Green's timeline(a long time ago now), makes me believe a new server is in the pipe, but may never happen depending on interest of the creators. That is fair. Why that can't be honestly articulated is unclear.

Either way: Ill be here when a new one launches, unless a game releases that could carry the torch another 25 years first. Not holding my breath for either lol.

Turns out all you gotta do to get staff to engage the community is rant and flame over mage staffs

We engage with players on a daily basis. Are you in game, are you in the discords?

Lol. In the context of this discussion, the focus is on the staff that actually have the power to decide the future of the project by implementing merges, fresh servers, etc. The last Velious patch for Green was a long time ago, and the lack of engagement / communication regarding a clear direction for the future of this project is confusing and a bit worrying.
