Problem with progression servers is the fact that people cap content in a week because they no life the fuck out of it.

On P99 you can go 1-60 in 3 days, raid geared in a week provided there's no competition. But on a brand new progression server, Ralph and his 10 friends from p99 will go ahead and ROMP all the way to beating the first tier of the gamee in that time frame cause noone else is there.

We did the same fucking thing on Fippy.


2 weeks we were level 50 and had nagafen/vox/inny/phinny on farm rotation, but i mean that was 85+ RoI members.

Your right some will but that isn't most. For example I know of five people who all played EQ starting back in 1999 and back then we all lived on the game. However now days we are all married with kids (who are in sports) and we have jobs. So we no longer have that kind of time. So racing to end game isn't something everyone will do. Now on the other hand 5 years on a caped expansion isn't something we want to do either.

So for people like us who are older that play when we have free time a few nights a week, it would be nice to have a server that slowly added content over the next eight to ten years.
