So you played on AK
despite the client, not because of it. Same here. I can deal with the TAKP client, but I would absolutely prefer something more polished. I just checked and P2002 has 171 boxes online vs TAKP's 102 (both numbers including traders). If P2002 is as buggy as you say and their primary appeal is the titanium client . . . it's working.
Also, just to be clear, I am not proposing that you switch. It shouldn't be THAT hard to support both clients if the server code isn't a massive pile of spaghetti. I do think it's kind of cool to support the original client that gives a true classic EQ experience, and you can keep the current TAKP server instance for those that prefer the exact AK conditions.
Finally, Project 1999 has 600 real players online, crushing both 2002 and TAKP. So that suggests to me that boxing is the single biggest issue.
I really think if you launched a PoP emu that supported the titanium client and prohibited boxing (except for say trader accounts) you would get 1K users easily.
