False - the EQEmu source is a direct port of live server code and an infringing use of their intellectual property.

I don't see that. If you look at the state of the TLP servers there's nothing similar about the code at all.
Also the code isn't a replica of the code used during classic EQ, it's put together to be as similar as possible. The only similarities are the character models and zones, and even the zones in some respects have been changed.
It'd be a tangled web but I think ultimately P99 stands separate enough from anything the live servers are doing, using custom code based on a client that is ahead of the era we're playing in. A lot of us use addons that customize the experience further.
If P99 classic EQ was as popular as H1Z1 is for Daybreak I could see them wanting to trigger a shutdown, but it isn't...and if anything people who've played here might not have moved to try the TLP servers over the last 7-8 years.
If they wanted to cash in, they could give us a paid/legal version of Titanium we could download... right?
