^ Hey, don't I know you!


But ya, i was looking up old videos on You Tube to show the wife some of the old raid mobs and someone posted a link to Project 1999. So i did a Google search and my jaw dropped as i read it and proceeded to start clicking every down load link on the page!

So far I'm loving it... its like being a kid again!

FOH, but it took my third try at Vanguard before I finally stopped looking for something like EQ and gave this a try.

I tried the VZ/TZ server a while ago and left with the quickness after discovering it was very petulant and very "cliquish". This is to be expected where PVP is found to a certain extent but when you have GMs blatantly twinking friends and favorites it becomes an operation of futility in the name of fun.

A week ago they sent out a mass email saying they had fixed the "problems" but I wasn't buying it. It did renew my interest in EQEmu however and I decided to give this server a shot despite it's carebear nature. Gotta admit I'm having a blast so far.

If there was a red server out there with the integrity and population that P99 has it'd be perfect. But I'll take what I can get. There is absolutely nothing like EQ Classic. Ever. Period.

Thank you for this.

I was sitting in class and a girl that sits next to me was talking about WoW and I was thinking about how terrible that game is and reminded me how much I miss old school EQ. When I got home I googled "games like everquest 1" and it came up with a free browser based game that I cant remember the name of. I played it for about an hour and it pissed me off because its one of those click to walk to the point that you want to go to so I googled it again. I found a forum that was talking about how much people missed EQ classic and on the second page of the thread there was a link to this website. I downloaded everything and installed it instantly and here I am lol.

Saw a post on an Everquest facebook group that had a link to the article about P99 on tentonhammer. I didn't manage to get it installed that night, but I lost sleep thinking about the possibilities [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I tried the LOTRO trial - it was ok, but then I went back to EQ2 for a free seven days I had gotten, I guess from resetting my account, dunno.

Anyway, after a day or two in EQ2 an OOC "EQ nostalgia" chat started up - some dude named Tekma (I think) told me about this server.

Thought I'd check it out [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
My wife even played some and she kept swearing she was just too burnt out on EQ. She played from maybe a month after the original launch. I started up just as Kunark came out.

Someone made a sneaky reference to it on the official forums six months ago and so i've kept an eye on it from time to time. The time was right and I installed last night. Pure Heaven.

750 players online? 82 in east commonlands and 15 in each Freeport zone? Incredible!

THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!

Googled "Everquest 3". I think it's the first or second link, some sort of blog. Some guy sent in a reply talking about this.

i think this is how i found out, i was bored and burned out on WoW raiding, played classic from little after launch til an expac or two after PoP.

was forum bouncing, googling old mmo's and reminiscing, and stumbled upon a post where someone mentioned the server.

been heaven ever since, got about 3-4 people irl to dl it and start playing again.

I heard about it from Xumosa, old guildy of mine from back in the day! I hope to find some old friends on here. I'm going to try and get everyone to come check it out!
