I was originally going to come in and point out how couple things have been put into the game that were not in classic, but the dev's wanted it that way. Mob run speed, pet xp, and a couple other I can't think of right off the top of my head.

However, the Dev's have fixed boats, something EQlive dev's couldn't fix in what? 4 years? and got old skeleton and wolf models to work on the modern clients. Those two things alone have makes any decision the dev's make about the direction of the game easy to swallow regardless if it hurts the player base or not.

Bravo Dev's, Bravo. I could not ask for more from P1999.

Not choosing one side or another, but i do have fond memories of making a human on live under the assumption that one day he would get his 5% bonus...[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I was making a point by comparison...

Humans never received an exp bonus in Classic - Velious.
Enchanters never received a 15k nuke in classic - Velious.

Explain how this is asinine.

To reiterate:

If it didn't happen on live, don't bother asking the devs for it on this server.

Um, one is a game breaking change that only an idiot would ever think of, the other is a tiny change which most people would never even notice and which was supposedly intended by the original developers?

Are you so thick that you can't understand that?

Highly worth the effort.

The 'its not classic' excuse has been an overused response to many complaints.. But reality is that most of the game is not true classic.

Just look at charm, and tell me that they have given us the classic experience.

They chose to focus on THEIR classic experience, making it the way they remembered or wanted it to be.

We are in THEIR world now.. The true classic EQ does not exist. Period.

I, for one, am still having fun in their world, and appreciate the hard work the devs did put into it. Even if I do have to listen to my husband complain about chanters being reduced to buff bishes.

It's not ours to pick and choose what we want out of their recreation of EverQuest 1999.

In fact, it's not for you to change anything at all. You aren't entitled to fucking anything. You can either enjoy the hard work put into a concept, or you can complain pointlessly about minute details.

The absolute best way to enjoy the server is to whine for more, and point out every mistake you see. Real fucking productive.

i was not complaining at all during this whole post, i was pointing out what i thought should be done and giving a valid argument about it. pointing out mistakes is something that SHOULD be done as it helps devs find the bugs of the server and try to fix them as best they can. i never said i'm entitled to the human XP bonus i asked if it could be implemented. the only one i hear wining is the guy with "wa wa" in his name.

You are very fond of name calling.
(I almost said that you are good at it... but that would be a fallacy.)
It proves nothing.

You are not very good at understanding that the request in the OP is making a player request for custom content.

I could have used anything for an example,
like dual wielding wizards
or a minus 5% penalty to ogres.
It wouldn't make my point any less valid.
