Obviously not. It is also not even close to being similar.

[Xathos53]

Please send them more money. That way I can laugh harder at you.

Sure it is. Qwik Trip and Piggly Wiggly both sell many of the same delicious products without getting all litigious.

I've not played THJ so maybe cool your jets about the Gorenaire beverage being infinitely sold and infinitely consumed without ever being depleted.

[Xathos53]

Not you. Shovel boy who likes to throw money down the drain.

Guys, they are not implying they created the artwork themselves.

What the hell is wrong with these people.

You are all literally stealing everquest right now.

You really should take a look at how/why the original emu was created. Especially take note of the freedoms expressly given to the original reverse engineer.

I bet you will be suprised.

Stop I can see through your pedantic arguments.

You literally want the ownership of eq to be distributed amongst the workers.

You obviously didn't read it.

Its ok. I forgive your willful ignorance.

The gist (very simplified for the wilfully stupid) is that Reversing is OK but only using players with existing clients (that we have made money from).
It is just my opinion that The EQ devs didnt believe the game could be reversed so gave old mate the go ahead.

And here we are.
THJ used a newer (newest?) client AND MADE FUCKING BANK FROM IT.
Basically the dumbest smart (admittedly must be smart) people in EQ emu.

Simp and cry more.

OH I am sorry I finally read it. Thanks for agreeing with me Duik.

I will accept this W despite my L.

THJ player base is going to be doing their best to encourage daybreak that ALL emu's are not safe to leave online .

Akkadius is shutting down his warez and hostings.

[Duik]

THJ and by extention Shovel are the pidgeons.

[Reiwa]

AI Overview
The r/everquest subreddit was locked on September 27, 2025, by its sole remaining moderator following the closure of several unofficial emulator servers. The moderator cited "ongoing legal battles" and the need to protect the community by complying with Daybreak Game Company's intellectual property (IP) rights.
However, other members of the community characterize this as a "childish tantrum" by a "rogue moderator" and believe the closure was not justified.

The sole moderator had kicked other mods from the subreddit because of the THJ legal situation. He took the opportunity to attack Secrets and revealed his transphobia bigotry as a result. From what I have heard, this worthless piece of shit has taken that subreddit private. No loss to the community at all.

Another subreddit has taken its place. It is EQgame (https://www.reddit.com/r/EQGame/). Enjoy!

There will be other hills. This one seems well-armed and garrisoned right now. Best to not go riding straight on into the jaws of death, into the mouth of hell.

For me, it wasn't just them making money - it was all the tricks and tactics they've used since the lawsuit started to remove negative comments, put on a facade towards their donors, and generally just act like grifters.

All of their arguments in court fell flat. Probably more because their lawyers were out of their league against DBG lawyers. But - they have done alot of damage to their reputation in the eyes of many by removing (mostly valid) criticisms of their business plan.

They also really sneakily, as someone here pointed out, tried to get an agreement with Daybreak by lying about the nature of The Heroes Journey.

They are grifters. They may not have started as grifters - but once the money started flowing in - they played by every rule in the grifter handbook.

Yeah that's a good point, once I saw that it was kind of comical.

[shovelquest]

Well for grifters I have nothing but thanks to say to them.

Insincere apology for the bump, but is there a link to the actual P99/DGB agreement in the court documents (https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/70555215/daybreak-game-company-llc-v-takahashi/)?

Asking because I think people are taking permission to use the license for the Titanium client as permission to develop expansion(s) content beyond Velious.

Calling BDA scum in an era of totally borked raiding game is just complaining because Chest figured out how to sometimes be the scum that got an angle.

Go ahead. Remove the earthquakes. Go back to timers only See what happens. There will be all kinds of shady negotiations.

Every raid night, Chest would go through the roster, seeing if everyone was alright. He was like in the opening scenes of that first Gladiator movie, where the man dressed like the qanon shaman (Russel Crowe) would nod at each soldier, and say "We are the Storm!"

I'm glad Trump pardoned Chest btw. He said he was going in, and he did it. Need that energy on p99 tbh.

fucking what

also, yes. Chest stole raid loot from my grandma ;/

[Sadre Spinegnawer]

Thankfully p99 is safe no matter what happens. We already ban politics on RnF. That's always half the battle in any fascist coup, so I highly doubt we are on anyone's target list.

Everything's fine and people are just being silly.

On the Long March you'd freeze morale at an estimable high if you could. It could only get marginally better but a whole lot worse. Eyes front, feet forward, Soldier.
