But if this is what OP was really driving at, sure, I buy it. I'd like to do it myself! I never did Classic era during Live, sadly. By the time I started playing seriously it was already in Kunark.

Exactly! Those who don't want to restart can stay on P99 Blue and enjoy that they got rid of the "neckbeards".
Some people here claim that only a minority is interested in restarting. Why are you afraid, then? If you were right, P99 would remain healthy and the new server would fail quickly. | ||

The new server could follow the timeline from Vanilla to Velious more accurately than the server we have now, which is IMO way off from "classic" and will only get worse with time. Don't get me wrong - the staff and devs have done a great job at making P99 an awesome experience but I think it's time to move on. They botched the server with the huge delay of Velious...it almost feels like they are more interested in keeping what they have (playing it safe) than doing things right and releasing a second server. This server will be more true to classic than the one we got now. No 3+ years of fungi tunic farming before Velious, etc. I know a lot of players will be upset at a complete server wipe; there is always the option at having 2 servers going at once...if P99 doesn't do this it will be only a matter of time before someone else capitalizes on this opportunity...classic emus are popping up left and right, one is even in the works for Everquest Online Adventures. How do you think P99 came about? | |||

I get that new servers are exciting and new and that people think the old one was "botched" somehow, but whenever I see shouts for "yeah release another one along the classic timeline" what I read is "I don't really care for the current server and I want a chance to race for 2 years and then pronounce it dead and move on." Of course, that's OK! I just don't think a new server is going to be "true to classic" for any longer than 2 years. Along the live timeline, you get to Velious in 2 years. A year or two after that, tops, you'll have the same number of top guilds farming in NToV as you do now, you'll have all those farmed fungis for sale, etc. Same ol'. It's just a chance to get in at the bottom of a new cycle. That's fine, but that's all it is. It's still a cycle with an end in 3-4 years. And people still know all the shortcuts. Probably more so, now that they went through it (again) fairly recently.

We're not complaining. What the developers have created here is totally awesome! No reason to complain.
We're SUGGESTING it's time for a new server soon. Just because the old one has been running for more than 6 years. | ||
