I'm curious why this is? I could understand it if people don't want the full-on EQLive experience, but SOE's servers I see, all of them really give that. They seem more likely to give the "EQ + 23 expansions, but change this cause that's great, and oh, I loved that idea, so change that, etc. etc. etc."

So without this turning into a trollfest, I'm curious what people think the reasoning is? And why do we need SO MANY SOE-run servers?

Oh, and I get the "loyalty", new-school vibe. I do. I wish we could snap our fingers and make it go away.

And just in case people don't know who I am, I'm Secrets of EQEmulator. And I'm 100% seriously asking this question.
TLDR, humans are highly programmable despite what they think of themselves and hence, once you create something and they do the same thing for many days over and over, they continue doing what they have been programmed to do.

Pick either SoE or their customers. But I suspect both suffer this.
