My statement to those who say we should appreciate P99

[Ashimar]

I just wanted to post a quick thread to point how people say we should
appreciate the server because its free to play. I say bullshit - the people
who made and run this server have no choice but to make it free to us. Otherwise
they get a lawsuit from Sony.

You're an idiot. They volunteered their time to make something for a bunch of people they don't even know to enjoy because of their love of the game. It's not the fucking money that they give a shit about it's the fact that idiots like you fucking cry every 2 seconds about everything and don't have the intelligence to realize that another human being dedicated their time, without even being asked, to make something for scumfucks like YOU!! Fuck, they don't even ask for a 'Thank You', and all they do get is 'Fuck You'.

[Ashimar]

No one asked them to volunteer their time, They choose to do it themselves. And if money isn't much of a concern there wouldn't be a Donate button.

Which is even more of a reason to not be a total jackass to them. It's not like someone said 'hey, do this for free'. They willingly decided 'hey, wouldn't it be cool to give people a decent version of EQ to play instead of all of the SOE garbage nonsense with their endless expansions?'

And if money isn't much of a concern there wouldn't be a Donate button.

You try running a server this big and see how your electric and internet bill looks at the end of the month. The donations button is there for Rogean@co can at least break even at the end of the month when the bills come in.

[DOPE]

Yeah this dude fucking blows. Boo this man!!

[Ashimar]

I'm not or never have been a Jackass to people who run this server. And i do appreciate the server in a different context - just not that its "Free to play."
I'm simply pointing out facts. Example...

Project99: Where people sell NODROP items.

Just ban this clown..hes an ass.

[Humerox]

nice troll

[Omnimorph]

They could keep the server private, available to a select few. Still for free. They don't owe anyone anything.

Ashimar,

Every time you go to create a post, stop and think: "is this post going to make me sound like a retard"

If you exercised this option more, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have to read a single post from you ever again.

[xshayla701]

Stating facts doesn't make me think im going to sound like a tard.

Your "facts" got thrown out the window in the second post and every other post in this thread. How you manage to find the "Post Reply" button fucking baffles me.

The truth says,

You are rude. Regardless if this is how you feel. Why do you show the devs hate? Read this and tell me what you would think if you were a dev. Do you not play on the server? Do you not post on the forums? They put hard work into these things. I hope your enjoying yourself. Regardless of the motives they had for doing it. You should show some appreciatation by not posting this kind of shit. It just makes you look like a jerk. This is the truth.

I'm sure the box is at a data center, not in his basement hehe. Theres nothing wrong with this persons statment.

I Myself used to run an SAMP server, I first started out playing on some servers then i figured i could run one better. I loved the game but wanted to play it my way and enjoy it with others for free mind you. So i built a script got a dedicated box around 150 a month and setup a donation system. The donations far exceeded the server cost so not only did I have a box for free I could also use for other things aswell and buy more beer.

Anyhow, love playing here. keep up the good work!

The truth says,

I'd laugh if a renegade dev fucked the server. Not only fucked the server , but hacked your computer and fucked you too.

The devs are still footing the bill for utilities, regardless if it's at Rogean's actual residence or a data center.

I support your buy more beer policy.

Yea, $150 a month... maybe if we were on a dual core server with 2 GB of ram and a 7200 rpm hard drive, in a data center with no SLA's, terrible service and reliability, and horrible connectivity.

Maybe under-exagerating, but you get the point.. you get what you pay for, and what we pay for is nothing less than what it takes to operate a full everquest server in a quality data center, hardware wise and network wise.

And lets not forget ddos protection.. that didn't come cheap.

DDOS protection is mad expensive. At the place that houses my businesses server its like 2500 just for the hardware!
