Just wanted to point out Aslanna's thread in the EQ forum to those that haven't seen it. I'd put *FF* on this thread, but that wouldn't really be in the spirit of our former home...

LuclinVault has a nice ring to it.

Well, Sony(including Epic & ImageWorks) has never been one to give a rat's ass about its employees and customers.

That's pretty fucking retarded. I'd care more if I still played, though.

I'd be pissed if I still played! Maybe to the point of making me quit.. maybe not. I wouldn't know since I quit for other reasons!

But that does make me feel sad right now. Just one less reason to care at all about the game I guess.

People bitching left and right on Veeshan.. Time for me to find a new game..

I think the main thing is the choice of name. I totally understand that they need to consolidate. I think it's good for whatever remaining customers they have. However, I think taking the old name is a far better idea, and I think naming anything after one of the worst pieces of software I've ever seen released (Luclin), is a horrible, horrible travesty.

I'm also sorry to see a server where we all had so much fun both with each other and at each other's expense get shut down. :(

Truly a sad day.

I recommend veeshan players either quit EQ or refuse to use their server forums. As a side note, while I don't play, i'd love to get involved on some petition to make the new server keep the Veeshan name.

Maybe get one of those online petitions rolling?

Hmmm...if this would have happened back in CT's prime, I would have loved it. Go anon, COH past some guilds in NToV and then blame it on FoH.

Kilmoll could have introduced the Luclin guilds to how the Ring War spawn works. :twisted:

If we got enough Plane of Time enabled retired people we could form a guild called Time Bandits of Veeshan but they'd have to all be gnomes or dwarves...or use illusions.

Or go semi old school and call ourselves Pravus Dei and let anyone in! :twisted:

one month's cost for a massive party/blaze of glory for our beloved server...I feel the same way Rellix, but damn it would be memorable

We look forward you your arrival. Veeshan is old hat anyway. Get with the program. Luclin is where it is at. And where you will be at very soon. More peeps = more grps = more trade skills etc. View it as the inevitable march of progress.

No you jacktastically inept clownboat. What happened on Veeshan when we were playing was progress. Everything good that you have come to know and love about EQ can be chocked up to a big thank you to those people that played on Veeshan.

It's no wonder you think of this as progress. The reality... this is the inevitable demise of EQ1, and the inevitable march of your life down the toilet.

or we could split off a mini-server running only the plane of growth where all 384 people on the server farm all day long... it will be like where the good Celestial Tomb members go when they die

Er no, Noel, I was playing on one of the original servers from beta. I don't see ANYTHING outstanding to distinguish Veeshan from the rest of the original servers. Luclin is an ok server. So are all of them. If you don't like it just pick up the free transfer and go to the Rathe or somewhere. No ones MAKING you stay on Luclin if you don't want too. Personally I will be glad to see you all. Will make for more grps and more progress.

Right, because transferring to a random ass server solves the entire issue.

Retard.

Posted: March 31, 2005, 1:29 am

Well you are simply being transferred to a server that's more popular than yours /shrug. At least on Rathe you would have some impact, since they have a strict rotational system on all mobs (haha) so you could get your juvie little rocks off disrupting that. Luclin is FFA, so bring it on you wackers.

Hey dumbass, how long you been playing EQ? a week or two? got a char off ebay a few months ago?... In the hayday of EQ (read: Everything pre PoP) there were more server firsts on Veeshan than any other server... sure Triton had a few, AL had a few... but almost every other one happened on Veeshan... most of the people that read this board played EQ from day 1 (March 16th 1999) to a year or two ago... (read: post PoP)

Thats the reason people here are pissed... Veeshan had more noteriety than any other server in EQ history... destroying the server name is a kick in the face by SoE... and hopefully I can get my account deleted in the process of proving that to SoE :evil:
