I have always wondered what the deal with Rogean and eqemulator is. How does he own it now? eqemulator is from like 2002, rogean is like 25 so he obviously wasnt involved in its early days. What happened and how did rogean acquire it?

A simple search shows Rogean was involved back then.

The Creationist Myth of EQEMU & Rogean as recorded by the High Neckbeards of Norrath:

o sun!
i shy from your damnable presence
cast the blackout blinds across my windows
thus, i have obliterated life

So begat the second cumming
first there was Neroga
the god king - wielder of the thundercode
he spilled his seed unto the carpeted floor
rubbed it in with his feet
the stickiness in his toes reminded him
O those lost days of his homeland
some called it Valhalla
He called it EQ
And so in a titanic task
Neroga formed the alliance of gods
they ascended from their stanky pits
communed at length
filling ten thousand poop socks
and sacrificing them in the Great Fire

the answer was obvious
the great serpent SONY ONLINE ENTERTAINMENT
held fast in its lofty castle
terrorizing the peasant masses
slaying their cattle
penning the life-giving clouds of loot

Neroga breached the gates of the sky-keep
and cast with his thundercode
a mighty bolt of programming
which rent a great wound into the heart of SOE
and from it came pouring thousands of imprisoned souls
who embraced Neroga as the One True God King
Master of Universes
and as SOE fled
Neroga perched upon the citadel
beating his breast
he cried
I am ROGEAN
CREATOR OF WORLDS
and he cast his thundercode at the world
and the bolt rippled through the ground
found the internet tubes laid by the ancient priests
blasting the internet with the wrath of his vision

hundreds of lonely neckbeards
fapping in their primordial stench
drawing crude images on the walls of their basement
with the poo
of their socks
were given light
the light bled from their screens
they wept with joy as the world was born before their eyes
Rogean
all pras
they cried

and so now
in this blackened room
the vaulted light of creation pours from our screens
seducing us into existence
of an obsolete elf sim

Chuck Norris is a giant piece of shit

Why does the internet idolize that idiot?

Or is that the joke?

Rogean was a Warrior (Rowgar) in Triality until Underfoot era I believe?

At which time this post happened:

https://web.archive.org/web/20100611...lityguild.com/

Essentially their guild (and a few others at the time) was using an exploit known as pillar tanking or z axis tanking, where effectively they could have a tank stand behind a pillar and due to geometry / z axis issues the mob couldn't hit them or summon them. Trivializing the event. Also through the use of clever Expedition dropping mechanics they were able to farm a raid that normally had a 4.5 day lockout, by removing everyone but a few junk Alts before the Killshot was delivered so that the lockout was only eaten by some boxed Alts. The later, I'd guess, is part of the reason their guild was singled out though when as they point out several of the other guilds were guilty of the same pillar tanking shit.

At the bottom they mention Rogean's IRC. I *think* after this he quit PC.

Quick synopsis of 2010 EQ Dramas.

This is like the News today. Not even half the story and taking everything for face value with no depth.
Way to try and take this to a dark place though.

Someone said he was a rogue in CT. I'm pretty sure that he wasn't cause he was a warrior in Triality?

It was around this time when P99 was lifting off, and I think he quit EQLive and gradually became more of a driving force behind the project.

Cause and effect kinda shit. Time frees up here, sunk into different project.

But what news station am I like? CNN 'stuck on a phantom plane'? Fox 'dem foreigners took err jerbs'! Or MSNBC 'we will just be in this corner'...
