Stormfeather rules need to change

Its not a monopoly, there have been people who have come and sold their service multiple times and leave because the pay is shite (Edit the camp is also equal opportunity to take it) and people make massive fake narratives to defame people who camp it angry at the camp in general (38+ hour average between pops is brutal)

Anyone can camp their own map and I will help them do it against my own self interest, I aim to make it as easy as possible and want people to feel treated fairly.

I have helped countless number of people through TOD's messaging letting them know when the camp is open, held their spot when they DC for multiple hours, go raid or dont see it up and message them in game / on discord

In the last campers case #1 DC'd for at least 2 hours still gave them back their #1 spot.

If anyone wants some actual help doing the camp lmk discord is "Grim03743"

Will TOD you / let you know when the camp is open.

Wish you gents well honestly its kind of sad with the BS narratives. I assure you if you want to camp this I will make it as easy as I can and you wont be in the camp 75 hours never knowing where the window is if know it (10x worse)

Example just today:
[Thu Jun 25 13:26:51 2026] Auragrimhc -> Sealmeat: I held your spot though 90&PCT; of people in my position would not have
[Thu Jun 25 14:16:36 2026] Auragrimhc -> Sealmeat: so you know letting you keep your spot even though you were dc'd over an hour and a half (without reviewing obs was prob longer) against my own self interest ^ ^
[Thu Jun 25 14:20:32 2026] Sealmeat -> Auragrimhc: well, it's appreciated
[Thu Jun 25 14:21:02 2026] Sealmeat -> Auragrimhc: this isn't somewhere i want to be ultimately

There is no family computer there is no multiboxing, I made a pun about a family of mobs watching a guy camp out and it got interpreted as I have a family watching him camp out / my PC like a bunch of soyjacks in a circle

Not a monopoly by any definition if you understand what words mean.
Trying to warp words to your definition is just poor reading comprehension.

Gloomlord/ Fueelilie (Sockpuppets Stakorian (confirmed)) tries to hide behind anonymity flaming, trolling, sockpuppeting and ragebaiting for attention with words they dont understand; Dont be like them ^ ^.
They are astroturfing, they lied to their guild and got a Batphone while pushing for this thread sent to 300+ people.
Other likely sockpuppets from fueelilie / gloomlord: (Manatoid, Defo, Tiger32kw, Ashland, Vales and Kushido are also very likely him)

It is also very clear that he is doing so from his response he wants to think he is a master manipulator but in all honesty he is not as smart as he thinks he is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunnin...3Kruger_effect

If anyone has any legitimate claims with proof I welcome them but please leave your in game name because at this point I think the majority of spam responses are just gloom sockpuppeting / astroturfing.

Many people like myself wanted to buy loot rights as I could earn more playing actively but realized the previous sellers had a ring that kept jacking up the price, multiple of them refusing to TOD / list non guildies / holding the list for other sellers offline 5+ hours. I only started doing the camp service after that.

A lot of people prefer having someone else camp a camp for them that can take up to 75 hours to spawn.

The person has a victim mental and has been banned off other forums for their sociopath level sock puppeting astroturfing and personal attacks.

Please respond to the above and stop spinning bullshit stories without proof (Time and date) because I know it doesn't exist I follow every camp rule. (Just gonna keep posting this one until the bullshit accusations and monopowy statements stop).

Also for anyone reading your welcome to just post your in game character name can take you off the sockpuppet list but I have verified at least one is 100% a sock puppet no reason not to believe there are more with the fresh / low post accounts

Genuinely on the cusp of putting this guy on ignore, too. You can tell he's not exactly mentally sound...

Really, though: I think Project 1999 needs a reassessment. I think most of us (just my opinion, not fact) at this point want changes to the experience.

Because how does this issue not illustrate the outdated nature of the game?

Oh, please lord, please what can I do to get off the nefarious sockpuppet list?

You are a tool.

A few recent threads on this forum, and a few encounters I've had in game in the last few months since I've come back to P99 have been the perfect reasons, for me personally, to stop logging in.

Great timing, as EQ Legends is scratching the EQ itch for me. I say let the people who have 40 hours available per week to dedicate to P99 have these servers. Let them camp their Stormfeathers as a "service" to the rest of the server nonstop for years at a time. Let the Hate farmers camp minis for a decade. Let the antisocial club have it, and we should all move on, lol.

Raiding on Green was so very fun between 2020-2022. Grouping was abundant in zones less travelled like Splitpaw, Cazic Thule, Sebilis, etc. It got awful in early 2023, and has only gotten worse. It was fun while it lasted, though!

100% would not recommend P99, 100% would not return for a fresh server. However, I am very glad I got to experience the closest thing to "classic" EQ over the past 6 years.

I'll never understand why people want to mold P99 into something else instead of just seeking out the thing you want that already exists. You have options. The real issue is that people need to reassess that they aren't cut out for P99. If you want a different experience...its being provided. Go to Quarm, EQL, TAKP, EQ Live, or a variety of other projects that are geared towards the experience you want.

Sorry you want hand outs, this isn't the community where you'll find them.

Yeah, it's a common misconception that p99 is for fun- it's a dedicated non-entertaining pursuit to gain 10 BiS toons, at the detriment of your real-life relationships, physical and mental health, and other responsibilities in life. Have a job that doesn't allow remote work? Quit so you can sock raid targets. Got kids / pets / a spouse that requires your attention? Ditch them so you can farm Hate and sell MQs. Jees- Get with it.

You must be an elite gamer with no life to thrive here. How's the saying go?.. Hope that helps.

Sorry to hear that your life is so shit and full of problems. Probably a good idea to step back from spending time on games at this point. It must be hard living in a world where everything isn't specifically customized to your exact preferences.

Thankfully your god has heard your cries for help and has developed endless amounts of activities you could do with your life that don't involve complaining about how you choose to spend your time doing things you clearly don't like.

I never understood this either. There are multiple versions of Everquest 1 with instancing already, as you point out.

The vast majority of MMO's out there have instancing as well.

If you want instancing, don't play P99. Let the players who enjoy a non-instanced experience continue to enjoy said experience. Why ruin P99 for the players who like it? It doesn't make sense.

Going AFK at Stormfeather line requires no effort. You just need an old side computer you can leave in a corner somewhere. Go do your life. You only need to check in on it when Stormfeather is in window. Worst case if you miss your opportunity, just get back in line and go AFK again.

Alternatively, just kill guards whenever you have a spare hour. You will get like ~200pp per hour at a lot of spots. You'll get enough money for the MQ via casual play in no time.

How is this hard?

Mostly agree with you. Although I do think some circumstances require some adjustments. Someone holding down a camp 24/7 to sell loot rights was not commonly a thing in the classic era.

*cue DSM writing a 10 paragraph post to argue for the sake of arguing and being contrary about why someone should get to monopolize a piece of content solely for themselves forever*

I don't know why Cd288 keeps lying about me. I don't even know why he keeps talking about me, other than obsession. Can Cd288 actually make a new post in this thread without mentioning me?

Everybody can check the thread. I never said someone should "monopolize a piece of content solely for themselves forever".

In reality this doesn't happen. Camps change hands. There is no item in the game I can think of that has been singularly monopolized by one player or group for the entire life cycle of a server. Please do not mention items like Ton Po's Bo Stick of Understanding as an example. Perun did not "monopolize" the item, they were just the lucky winner.

P99 will always have unclassic behavior, even if Rogean was able to acquire the exact source code for all the patches/releases of Classic EQ to the end of Velious. This is because a lot of "classic behavior" was based on a lack of game knowledge, and the knowledge that future expansions would come out. There was a good chance the next expansion would have better items than the previous expansion, so there wasn't as much of a drive to get specific loot that was really good for the specific expansion. You will never be able to recapture the lack of game knowledge, or the idea that future expansions will come out on P99.
