No offense bro, but this server isn't perfect. It's emu on top of that. I'm sure someone somewhere appreciates this compiled list of known issues, but as Jify said it's obvious you haven't been playing here since launch or else you'd not have wasted anyones time by posting this thread.

True story. Also, it won't work on modern hardware too well. You need EQ Windows to even get the EQC client to run on Windows 7/Vista. I'd say stay here forever. | |||

i highly doubt that soe-devs would have done a better job then ours (progression servers some years ago come to my mind) since most of verants staff left long time ago ´
there is no better vision (tm) out there than here. about EQC i have to concur with a previous poster.... lol?

Overall, This is not our primary job in life. All of us have real jobs, families & lives that we have to attend to. My house is still in boxes by and large since I moved due to the fact of the extra time I take on the development of this server. It may not be perfect, but I challenge you to do your part to make the server better. We are certainly doing more than our fair share. We don't actually get to play on the server, so we have little firsthand knowledge of incorrect items, and there will be some. Considering since the start I fixed over 600 broken quests, Nilbog among others made over 700,000 DB changes, several hundred source code improvements and modifications by Rogean, Haynar & Ladoth, we added the pathing files for all dungeons to keep mobs from running through walls, also that thousands of mobs that had incorrect loot (There were 70,000 incorrect "Rusty Daggers" being used as an example), faction was completely incorrect (Ogres could roam around north freeport & high elves in Neriak), we also had to restructure spells from every 2 levels for all classes to every 4 levels, fixed several thousand faces on NPC's, Yes, classic is the target. But when your starting point is so far off the mark, you won't get there in short order. Before we released we developed and changed things for almost a full year just to get it where it was at launch.

No need to nitpick imho. P99 is a damnload of fun and closer to classic than anything else (and probably will continue to be). I spent 1.5 hours last night in EC looking for my corpse and LOVED IT!

Here, here Aeolwind - BRILLIANT reponse. This thread should end at his response - it's exactly what is needed to be heard. Thank you for the hard work!
p.s. MutualOfOhama - help us make it a more classic and a better server by reporting these problems in the Bugs area. You will NOT find a better EQ Classic Server out there... go ahead, I challenge you to find one (that is currently running, not in development).

However much I disagree with him, the post is on topic. It is semi-classic, to be near sighted, look at bards, we've been told we won't be able to swarm kite due to its "unfairness" but we get the other "fair" perks of being a bard. I don't mean to nitpick, I love P99 and have devoted much time and money to it. I am just pointing out that he is right- the Devs have done a great job but seem to favor what seems fair over what is classic. This again, is highly opinionated, but true.
Not meaning to oversight things such as fixing raid rotation, continuous quest fixes and a large amount of output by the devs who make zero money for their work- But I completely agree with things like /ooc and /auc being serverwide. It is very easy to say these things are necessary but after a while start to add up and ruin my life. P.S.- WTB a bucket for my tears, PST.

You have a bucket for sale by chance?
