edit:

To paraphrase, in that thread I was attempting to ask yeahlight (lead dev/coder) how he planned to deal with the massive database set up and editing required to run a truly 'classic' eq server. this was his response:


which means two things,

a) eqclassic.org as an entity is probably NOT going to host a server themselves and,

b) someone else would need to take over responsibility of not only hosting a server, but also setting up ALL of the relevant npcs, items, etc using PEQ's database (or I guess p99's, if that's publicly available? still not very likely)
That project, once ProjectEQ, now EQC, has been doomed since day 1. I remember logging into IRC for PEQ the night after I proposed to my wife... in 2008...
