GLOBAL ooc/auction. Poll time.

Stop crying about global chat not being classic.

Want to know what's NOT Classic?

GM's giving out random illusions (sometimes luclin models) every single freaking day at NFP bank. Oh yeah that's awesome.

What about translocators for boats? EQC has boats working, why can't we?

Actual, GM did give out illusions in classic. Are you mad you aren't the one getting the illusions?

lol no I know they gave out illusions in classic on rare occasions.
(They didn't give out SOL illusions though buddy)

However, they DID NOT do it every single day every time they zoned into NFP and started "frog resistance wars" or whatever Cyrius was doing today.

It just gets old after awhile.

Actually, the GM-Vaylin of Rathe would give out SoL illusions right before SoL ... though that was AFTER they started the patch to allow clients to see vah shir etc images. It was not a daily thing.

When classic ends is really up to the person designing the server.

In my opinion - Classic "ended" at PoP .... and in difficulty in encounters ended in GoD/OOW ... The game at that point start changing to become more "casual" like WoW.

GM'S in classic were a lot better than later era's and got involved a lot more frequently, but even then a good GM that got involved was fired soon after.
GM interaction, be it large or small scale, is classic.

GM held events in classic, this is what that is. But trust me there is something classic about you, you're a bitch- those always been around. GG-thx for playing. And honestly I am for changing everything down to snakes kicking and all that- to make this game the way it was. The whole translocator thing has been addressed, having issues with boats atm- so it's not like they doing it because they like it better. Read some patch notes, jesus.

EQC is working on a different client with different code as far as I know.
Edit: But I'm sure the GMs would love for you to submit a boat fix.

Try reading it again more slowly this time...

I hope it is known that the server will become more classic as time progresses. As live servers would patch in new content or features, we patch out newer content or features.

We will restore prekunark, Kunark, and Velious to the best of our abilities. We will put polish on them, and they are free for you to roam. Some content and features may be patched out before others, but do not be of the mindset that present non-classic elements are here to stay. It is only a matter of if they can be fixed, how they can be fixed, and when we can fix them.

I am a classic purist. The biggest mistake everquest ever made, in my opinion, was automating and simplifying the player's experience. Seemingly every new feature or change that was implemented post Velious was something to "benefit" me, that I didn't need to begin with. There are PLENTY of other games that encourage perks and things that are easier. Classic Everquest was widely-known to not be one of them.<team npc=""><team npc="">

We make the best, most well-informed decisions we can, with consideration to the feedback we receive.

</team></team>There was never a question of keeping global channels permanently. The question is to whether or not now is the time. The development team has to consider many factors, *some* of which were mentioned here. If there was a switch to immediately and completely revert this to classic, I'd flip it. Until there is, we will occasionally ask you for your feedback.
