Anyways, I thought I'd share my opinion of EQLive...it was okay, even the lore remained half intact as it spread from EQClassic to up to the Velious expansion, after that, with the addition of Luclin, druids and wizards became unimportant, boat use was minimal, and eventually died out... The ability to travel between continents and explore the moon via spires nearly ruined the EQ experience for me, I was about ready to quit. I managed to stick with it, and then PoP came out, GAH, the ability to travel to SO MANY CITIES BY CLICKING A F*CKING STONE seriously ruined EQ for me.... I nearly quit leveling and merely played the game to sit in PoK and talk to friends I had made. It was sad....

The point of this is, I believe an EQClassic server, while not as fun as I had originally hoped, nor as popular as many of the current servers, could be somewhat enjoyable.

Now...does anyone have an amnesia ray I can borrow...I wanna go back to the beginning, when I was a newb, and I WAS excited about any item I got....GOD I LOVED MY FIRST WURMY!!!!

I think an EQclassic server could be enjoyable, at least for some time, before boredom from lack of progression sets in, or people tire of being on a server with 20 people split over 12 cities. No doubt. Probably even a good amount of enjoyable if it somehow managed to concentrate the playerbase to a small area and get it to grow considerably. But it won't be EQclassic.
