Is this server dead? I couldn't even log on their forum, it said I wasn't authorized or some shit.

Their forums are not user friendly, they do in fact suck. You might have to log in twice (I have to every time) and then click on the link for the forums at the top again. This should then finally give you a full list of all the boards and allow you to post.

EQClassic will likely never happen:

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...

I knew this shit was never going to be released, I remember following when I graduated high school in 2005

Lol, Kegz is still posting over on rerolled.org singing the same old song of how great his server is and anyone who disagrees is a troll who hasn't tried it. 30+ pages of people pointing out how terrible the server is and Kegz denying it.

Well butter my biscuits, 500+ responses to this thread. I stopped playing months ago now, and I have to say I'm not missing the XP rate, the bugs, the deluded minority who sing the server's praises and call anyone who thinks otherwise a troll.

Let Kegz/Toop be the king of a hill made of dogshit, if he'd put the effort into fixing bugs before the server went up rather than after it he might still have a community playing on it.

Can't say I disagree on any particular point here. Sleeper had a shot but release was lackluster, and rather than listening to the overall player-base Kegz chose to tug on Divinity's dick every chance he could get instead. Reap what you sow and such. Only 2 guilds left on that server. Probably 50ish players on an average night (100ish pop with 2-boxing).

One of the main advertised features was legacy drops. That included manastone at release, and that was about it. Took a month of groups farming CT for hours on end for him to fix/add in rubicite. Took a month to see Jboots added to Drelzna. And even still, simple database additions such as gem encrusted ring, box of abukar, holgresh beads and pre-nerf CoS are still not seen.

Quests and quest drops can be bugged and non-functional, and rather than compensating a player for lost time, you beta-test a "fully released" server for hours on end to make a bug report and hope shit gets fixed in the next 2 months if that.

The staff is lacking, the GM decisions are inconsistent at best, and despite what any of the few remaining fan boys that server has left will tell you, Kegz favors Divinity over anyone else that plays on his box. Not worth a second look, and it will shrivel up and die if P99 ever releases Velious.

O almost forgot to add one of the coolest features of this server:

2 or so months after release? And green cons even as much as 30+ levels below you can still chain fear, root, mez and land full damage nukes on you at pretty much any resistance level. Anyone trying to level up stays in places like karnors zone-in and velketors zone-in because any zone with spell-casters isn't worth a shit to attempt unless you are bringing multiple groups for a chance at some shitty group gear.

kegz deleted a few weeks worth of lodizal loot because lodizal's spawn timer was twice as fast as it should have been. he thought it was <Divinity>'s responsibility to report the shit to him, got pissed that they didn't, and deleted all <Divinity>'s Lodi loot. the lodi shield quest takes 1k plat on the turn in. on a two month old server. all gone. just because the spawn timer was 12hours instead of 24hours.

more from Divinity:

Was in BW running to sarnak imitator to get my epic situated, tried to turn in my pieces to get seal via invis, invis broke whole sarnak temple attacked me. Tried to run away, ended up having client crash on me, I quickly loaded another one and logged back in.. before I could log in I was banned.

Sent tells through my cleric to kegz saying whats going on, ignored me. Petitioned through my cleric, saying how long is my ench banned, kegz immediately replies "for ev ver" told him "lame" and he immediately snaps backs you can have 7 days on your cleric too, my cleric was sitting at fire pots this whole time. Cleric is now 7 day suspension. Great customer service.

Fuck him, what a motherfucker. Had 3/4 staves done too, just needed to charm the npcs. Can't even tell me whats going on but gives my cleric 7 days, what did he do? Ask about my enchanter? Spent too much time on my enchanter to put up with that BS.

Tell him to go fucking fix necro pet too if anyone talks to him.

Did you /Q and login to kick your character from game. He has been banning for this for awhile now. As you can pretty much avoid death at all costs.

No I know about that, and he knows I know about it, he was also in the zone and I knew he was as it said Zone Connect: Burning Woods, so I wouldnt do that. I've been having client crashes a lot and I know [our warrior] has too (heard him during raids). Of course my first instinct when I crash with 4 mobs on me is to load game back up and log in.. so yeah couldnt even explain myself to him on my second cleric, gives me a 7 day suspension without explanation on my enchanter, I can only assume your reason is why.

Ontop of the fact he has a bias against me, I reported a few game breaking exploits 2 weeks ago that he never fixed and when I did report them he starts accusing me of holding more exploits out on him and threatening to ban me.. guy just has it out for me.

I wanted to get to the bottom of it but when I ask him about it on my cleric he ignores me, I petition how long banned and he gives me attitude with a 7 day suspension.. what did my cleric do exactly? he sat at the fire pots the whole time. I can't invest time on a server with such a trigger happy gm.

^^ the guy that wrote this was a pretty chill guy back before i quit this server.

this is the sort of stress-induced ranting that The Sleeper ends up causing for everyone eventuaally

glad i quit.

Kegz is known as a megalomaniac of low intelligence. Trying to make sense of his actions is an exercise in futility, he just behaves like a dick for the sake of feeling powerful and he lacks the mental faculties to present himself as a reasonable person.
