Why does anything have to be wrong with the server for me to want a new one to start over? I don't think much is wrong with this server, and if so I 100% agree that it will only happen again.
There is a majesty that comes with a new server starting up at this level (pre-kunark) and being able to start at the beginning with everyone else. | ||

That "majesty" is there because it is fleeting.
It is often missed by many, because it is fleeting. So it goes.

Hmmmmmm a few things wrong with this thread, and I think some of the reasons why devs arent responding go as follows.
1) It is expensive to run / own / operate a server capable of handling up to 1000 players online simultaneously + zones + content. ( DDOS days anyone? ) 2) When I first started on this server, peak hours had roughly 300 people or so. Regarding the legality of the server, it seemed to be kind of a grey area at the time. If Sony Online Entertainment noticed, the general thought was that they just didn't care if a handful of people played some 11 year old emulated version of the game. 3) If a second server was started, and we got roughly 1000 players on each server (p99 just keeps growing exponentially as word of mouth spreads) I think there would come a time where where Sony would be like, hey WTF guys, 2000 x 15 dollars a month = ZOMG /sue /shutdown. and finally 4) The devs operate this emulated version of EQ in their spare time, it would eventually grow into a full time job if they dont pull back on the reigns a bit lol... | ||
