Okay Aeolwind. Were hell levels in eq on day one? That is an awful hard one to prove or disprove. I know 1 or 2 of the first level 50's were some rogues that leveled with an enchanter using the old whirl till you hurl bug. That only took like a month or something.

Here is a theory: about two weeks after launch someone goes to Smedley and gives him a projection about what percentage of the server will be level 30, 40, 50 in 3 months, 6 months that sort of thing.

Then about a week later without being announced, a code change was put in on the server.

And hell levels now existed.

I could be wrong. But disprove me.
