i'm not really sure why some people think making things opensource is a bad idea for emu communities. if the folks at eqemu hadn't made their material available as opensource to nilbog et al, p99 would never even have been started in the first place. you're standing on the shoulders of giants and forgetting you aren't that tall on your own.
like father salty said (r.i.p), the devs have done a massive amount of amazing work and as a result are in a unique position to contribute to the eqemu-pvp project as a whole, for which (and despite what some misinformed angsty nerds keep repeating) there is a massive community. how and if they choose to go about helping is up to the devs, but some of us are just trying to help them see why it's a good idea to contribute to eqemu-pvp.
also, there's no need to get antsy - just have a calm/logical discussion so this thread doesn't end in a bunch of "cooldowns". no need to get worked up over a video games brosefs~
