Hosting A VZ/TZ Box

[Zahovoon]

I'd say the current situation for EQEMU PvP from a sociological aspect is.

- Tempest crew, Apex crew really, Tune crew. Red99 loyalists, won't play another box I don't see it, they climbed the ladder they have the stables and the bows. They would quit before playing another box, probably believe Red99 is the legitimate box.

- Perdition / Counter Apex crew, same thing as Apex just more PVE/alt focused.

- ROT crew, Colgate Holo crew, Outer, Engel and Gangsta crews. ROZ etc. They are more immersed in the social aspect, they like the people, they have their community, they can snub the people they don't like AND they have power over the GMS, creatively and physically probably to fuck people over they don't like. They are the big wheels "this should be like this" etc they do what I do lol.

CONCLUSION - Everyone plays on a shittier box functionally than mine, and the tiniest of tiny population left are solidified on their boxes for other reasons whether social or power based.

MY STANCE - Those boxes are physically shitty, the mechanics are shitty, they play shitty, I can and have done better. The servers ROT used were old and shitty before, now they are new and shitty with TAKP source. But the power the community has over them socially and in-game make it too tempting.
