I am new to EQemu and I'm very thrilled about a classic server. In fact, I stopped playing EQ because, like many others, I think they got it all wrong after Velious. So count me in for beta testing this! I know old players that would come back anytime for a true classic server (my husband for sure and about 4 other friends).
Call us masochists, we liked old grinding, death penalties, slow leveling and all the BAD that made EQ the BEST. After trying a lot of mmorpg's I still think EQ was the king and not because it was new at the time. It gave us a real challenge, it was tough and community was very important. I learned with time that nice graphics and fancy particles doesn't make a game.
So good luck and see you soon (off to create a character to beta test).
