Hey, I used to play on Brell!

...I feel like there were more people online than that. Maybe it was just a brave new world.

That screenshot is straight from the manual. This means it was made by an employee so it is likely to have been taken some time between 8am-5pm on a weekday. By all measures those would have been good numbers for that time and day.

Being able to chat on EQ from IRC and writing bots was sweet. Super handy for looking up spells, items, etc. Those sorts of shinies aren't my cup of tea in EQ these days, but back in the PoP era it was cool as shit.
