shutting down the server would be a shitty move.
i think a wipe would be ok, considering that one post about how early exploits and rmt TOTALLY FUCKED the economy. either that or purple finally(if its done right, otherwise can be failure).
there are some dedicated lifers who only play EQ. lots of people from other EQ servers have moved here after their home was shut down (MAC server, etc). if p99 shuts down, its only a matter of time before another emu is set up. its just simple supply and demand: if you shut down the supply, that does not remove the demand. not to mention that Rogean promised that the server will always be here.. so that would void the server's integrity and even if they started back up, im sure the population would be seriously crippled.
tho i must say, Zade leaving seems like a really bad omen.
