Make Servers with P99-style IP exemptions!

Non-custom servers are niche. P99 fills that niche.

There's no need to have another P99, unless you want 'bits of custom design/direction/content' in your server.

If you limit boxing, you can't have a healthy population. Why would anyone play on your classic everquest server over P99? You have to be engaging more than that.

Okay so McDonalds fills the gap, it is probably the biggest Hamburger fast food chain out there. So since it fills the gap for fast food burgers no one should ever open up?

Wal-Mart is the largest retailer, leading others by nearly triple. So I am guessing your opinion is that Target should just not exist? I get tired of this analogy about p1999 being the only option out there. I personally am not looking for numbers, never have been. I administer and create my servers because I love it. If no one else ever played it will still remain open just because I love what I do. The p1999 argument gets really old though. Sure they are great at what they do but those high numbers also seems to create a hostile community and it appears to be getting worse.

Just to fuel the fire. In 1999 i started a cleric and realized I cant kill anything or do anything without help so a couple weeks later i bought another everquest cd (for codes) and started boxing mage and cleric since 1999. This allowed me to atleast do stuff camp minor quest gain minor experience, and how many groups doesnt want a cleric and mage. The stronger my toons got the better I did too especially having mage pet tank the healer and tank were in cohorts same person. I would of never stuck with everquest for so long if I couldnt do this. Now i absolutely love p99 but i spent 4 years waiting for my epic, and lfg for hours and never getting anything or spending an hour making it to a group for it to fall apart. There is nothing wrong with having a 2 or even 3 box limit, it doesnt change the game, it just gives people options. What american doesn't like options?

Why is this even an argument? There are like 50 servers on the list that allow boxing, bots. Hell many allow both.
