I also don't try to whitewash it from profit to "providing value for donations" as thats a joke. They are following classic private server playbook of selling pay to win shops as "donations". It's always a profit thing but maybe I am just more indifferent to these type of servers because they make some truly impressive custom work.

Yeah

It's a shame they didn't approach it more conservatively and just pretend the agreement rog/nil got, was the same one they should follow.

But it's also a shame I didn't invest more in bitcoin or apple in 2008 so I can't fault them for making bad financial decisions that check out in hindsight.

THJ shit in the sandbox and are now wondering why.
Dumbarses the lot of them. Players included.

Sorry to those who see no problem with THJ shitting on everything. No wait. No, im not sorry.

Maybe DBG would have come down on the emu at some point, but this seems to be a major catalyst.

Glad i never tried the "Pidgeon who plays chess" version of the emu servers.

They were making over a hundred thousand dollars a month which is probably the same amount they make from the EQ IP at this point. If they did it for the love of the game and the players, they wouldnt have made a cash shop

Did you play it? It was clear with the details they implemented there was a deep love for the game. They had like NPCs you could interact with to [talk to] brad mquaid about the game and the inspiration of all of it and stuff. Was really cool.

Im sure they steadily ramped up from 0$ to 100K and by then it's very hard to turn that tap off Im sure. Probably super easy to rationalize that you're not hurting anyone or doing anything wrong. Pobody's nerfect.

(except rog/nilbog)

So you'd rather burn down the entire community than let people enjoy discussing EQ on a social network you dislike?
