The whole situation seems exceptionally poor. Some pieces of the server looked interesting and I initially assumed that many of the posts here and on EqEmu were just trolls, but they are proving to be correct.
Here you have a server that is blatantly ripping off pieces of another server, including their front page.
Last week the server came down and was down for about 4 days because they had to rebuild their database after removing a staff member abruptly. The very same staff member who started all the dev work on the server.
You have staff that refuse to provide any details, and once they do, they only post it to the main guild's forums. When questioned about it, they basically tell you it is only that guild's business, even though the decision impacted the entire server. You have one of the officers of that main guild claim this server is just for them on their discord and the staff and officers of that guild behave exceptionally condescending to anyone who questions any of this.
You have a server that is claiming to be a progression server, yet is starting halfway through Luclin with talk of releasing PoP soon, even though encounters like Lord Seru take less than a minute and with content in game from three to four expansions in the future.
The entire server is top heavy, having allowed just about anyone to import their level 60 from anywhere, which means as a new player there is basically no one to group with, and with higher levels that treat those new players with disdain in public OOC.
Overall, the server isn't half of what they claim it to be, and the behavior of the main guild and the staff (who are clearly made up of people in said main guild) make it clear this server is just a personal playground for that guild and anyone else that comes along, they ultimately expect to join them.
