There's no place like Freeport

[Glesni99]

Well, it was an indescribable pleasure logging into a populated Freeport yesterday, for the first time in many years. The pre-luclin sights, the sounds, the music - but mostly the company of other players who are probably as irreparably smitten with old Norrath as I am - 17 years on.

The next big thing was never quite as immense as that first year of EQ, and thereafter came long years of pining for boat rides, CR's and the dream teams in Lower Guk. I followed forums and petitions calling for classic server for a looong time - before life got too busy to carve even a meager existence in any game. So, I missed the boat early on with P1999 - but seem's it's still very much alive and kicking at every level - along with the snakes - and i'm duly floored. Content as a froglock in swampwater.

Heartfelt gratitude to the people who diligently worked at restoring and returning this magical piece of history and home to us - you are glorious, wonderous - nothing short of demigods.

North Ro tonight - woooooo!
