Don't panic but there was official talk about a merger as recently as like 4 years ago.

If/when it ever happens, no characters would be wiped. Green characters will be added to the blue server and a new green will launch. But we're not holding our breath waiting.

There's a saying, The Journey is the Prize.
Those that simply want to "be the best and get to the end before everyone else" now have nothing but the abyss to stare into.

100% This. This server(Green) is a relic now. It was fun. It's been a relic for year(s) now. How anyone other then a super casual 1-2hr/day or weekend warrior plays Blue competitively now is just mental illness and Green is knocking on the same door.

Time to call it quits @Staff or at least comment on why there is no comment? Maybe? Id love a new server, but life goes on either way. I guess 90+% of most humans daily routine is habitual and hopefully that accounts for the majority of the population playing and doing the same motions week after week in perpetuity with no desire and sometimes disdain at having to deviate at all. LOL

P99 was fun and I hold a great memories from the timeline! Akin to my original introduction to Everquest during Phase 4 Beta in 1998 at 13 years old. At 39 years old today, I can tell ya, these servers all 3 are for the Weekend warrior/1-2hr here or there checking in on old memories of your journey.

No comment at all on the subject makes me think Staff enjoys watching mental illness and maybe even herding the cats also pleases them? How any GM could legitimately think Helming these decrepit servers is worth their volunteer time is beyond me. No Cap. lol

So what if your account already has 8 characters on Blue?

Allowing new accounts for the same IP/whatever, or just making new accounts for these people to transfer their accounts to just opens the door for boxing.

So let Blue become a boxing server and keep green no box. Blue needs something like that anyway to keep it alive. Solutions to these kinds of things aren't that difficult. Or, if they are, the devs can just say "that's too hard for us" or "we give up", or "we just don't give a shit". Something. ��

That's what weirds me out. Project 1999 seemed to be a passion project that its leaders really cared about, so the silence we've been getting is strange and disappointing. I can understand taking a backseat for a few months due to burnout or personal / professional obligations and such, but Green is well over 4 and 1/2 years old at this point and people have been speculating about the future of the project for a very long time.

Part of me still hopes there's going to be a surprise announcement and a new server launch soon once the current round of TLPs start to wrap up, but meh

So just roll a new char on blue and act like its a fresh start

You aren't gonna find your childhood happiness regardless of how many new servers p99 cranks out

I find it funny that there's an ongoing theme of this sentiment and I have to say, I don't understand it. It's dismissive, a touch mean-spirited, and frankly it completely misses the mark. I don't think anyone on this thread has said that they're somehow unhappy, or that it is even about nostalgia. The fact is the gameplay changes dramatically on a new server and after the planes and raids have all been completed 100+ times, the market is saturated, and the lower level zones are empty, there is no just "rolling a new character." Grouping at low level is scarce and you are forced to stick to the same zones over and over, or you are just forced to solo. Not everyone wants to play a shaman or necro.

If YOU are unhappy and reliving your past, don't project that sh*t onto others

I just get high, log on and screw around

Who needs more than that?
