So, when I started the project, I was new to eqemu. I played on vztz, ckv, peq, and then complexity. Then I was like WTF is wrong with this shit, and started making project1999. We, (original devs), were not programmers and hardly touched the source. That being said, it's safe to assume the content was the original allure of the server. That or the no boxing rule, hah. The source changes were few and far between, as it was nearly impossible to procure help with the source prior to launch.
Due to popularity, we then got a LOT more help. Rogean, Haynar, and every source developer thereafter. The source continuously improves, as does the content.
Is the 'content' you keep offering me from vztz? I don't want that shit. I wouldn't let it anywhere near my db.
If it is, then you might? know how complicated it would be to merge it with an existing proprietary database. It would be much fucking longer than 1 hour. If they have something fixed we do not, why don't you submit some fixes?
Which leads me to believe you don't care about the quality of the content.. you just want the source and don't care if its aligned with vztz content. (which is shit, no personal offense to them, thats just what we focused on.)
In closing, I like pvp. I would like to help run a 'fixed' pvp server. What I don't like.. is people trying to rationalize why we should give them things, when they have done no development.
