ip exemptions no longer exist

[Gratal]

Are the previous IP exemptions they allowed still in effect? Because my wife and I are wanting to play again and if we can't get on together I might as well not redownload it.

My wife and I play together using our IP exemption. So they're still working. They responded to our request fairly quickly, but that was last year. I'm glad they work to combat the boxers. I hated it on live and I hated it in every game I played. When I played EQ2 the boxers ran multiple accounts and macroed them for tradeskill purposes getting all the ground spawns in an area. It got to the point where training those groups was a necessity in order to play the game.

You guys would be better playing one of the other emu servers to be honest. There are others to choose from. It's a shame because as far as I know, P99 is the only one which limits it to kunark/velious era and keeps everything legit. The others have other expansions (which I don't like) and/or have too loose rules. But if you are desperate to play together, I can recommend those.

Hopefully some day they will do whatever they need to do to get petitions here answered faster.

I've thought about playing on another emu but to be honest its not worth the trouble to me...setting up a whole 'nother version of eq and so forth. Just keeping p99 running on my tower and my mac is a job in itself sometimes. So, in the meantime we've just been playing a bit o' the swtor.

To be honest I'm with the original poster, I think that the length of time that has gone by since the last IP exemptions were granted points more towards the admins not wishing to grant exemptions rather than any other reason. I can see why, with all the boxing problems. It's just a shame it has to be that way.

Yup shame, probably another case of the few spoiling something for the many.

some people like to play games with whoever else they have living at their house at the same time. I can fully understand playing something else if you cant get the exemption when your trying to play with another person. If my wife liked to play games and we couldnt get the exemption i would be playing something else as well. I know the devs do all this stuff for free and thats nice and appreciated, but with how much population the server has lost since i started playing in january you would think that more energy would be put into things that can increase player base.

I wasn't suggesting that people don't enjoy playing together. My fiance and I play together all the time (outside of EQ, which she can't get into). My point was that it's not like you can ONLY play EverQuest at the same time to enjoy it. Rather than saying "No exemption, oh well good bye" you can take turns, play on off days, etc so that you still get to enjoy the game while you wait for your exemption to go through.

Honestly, that's more classic EQ than playing together. I remember having three of us huddled around the computer, taking hour shifts so that we could 'play together'. It was still enjoyable back then, I'm sure it could be again.

Unless of course, the reason for the exemption is the 'wife' who 'doesn't type, talk, or play with anyone else just enjoys duoing everything with me'. Which usually ends up being Captain Lonely and his two-boxing setup. I could see why that guy would refuse to play until his exemption went through...

They are still working. At this moment Amelinda only does them. I'm not sure how they process it, but it is something I wouldn't mind helping on so they get done quicker.

Don't listen to the trolls.

This needs to happen!! We are losing new people that can make this server last.

They stopped doing exemptions when they found out the majority of the wives and friends and brothers are boxers.

P99s boxing detection program is pretty much foolproof and they have to listen to idiots like you lie to them on the daily.

Remember kids you downloaded a program that lets the staff look inside your computer at will.
