I could honestly just repeat what I've already said and that would be an effective rebuttal to the two posts above me.

What if someone gets suspended for a petty offense and they leave the server? What if someone gets banned by accident or unjustly, and then they go to the "rival" server that someone sets up instead of trying to go through the petition system here? It's not just griefers and dickheads who you'd lose. What about people who are completely new to eqemu and have no idea which server came first?

If anything p99 needs more population, not less, and starting up a second server at this point would be very destructive.

You're reaching. And I still don't think you adequately understand the pros/cons of open source.

I'm not going to blame anyone and this is by no means pointed towards anyone, but the reason why these servers fail, mainly pvp, is because of the players. For some reason, they feel like they have to hack, cheat, exploit a 12 year old game in order to have fun. If people did not cheat, these servers would be fun to play and have a healthy population.

It does not help that some GM's abuse their power and act like "mall cops". I believe having good GM's and a dedicated staff is essential, but having players who are here to play and re-live their times on live without cheating is the core of the community.

Bardalicious has proven once again, that there will always be cheaters.

Hope better placed in another basket.

Mostly in my opinion is that for every previous pvp box. The host of those boxes won't share information to the next. We just start from the ground........ END and repeat. Always the same problems.

Furthermore the faggots you speak of always lose. Even if its temporary.

Yes they may or may not get banned. But some do.

And then a very interesting thing always happens. People ban together and beat there ass. As they cheat they still lose. It's always an accepted challenge I take on personally from box to box.

Just go to the FoH forums and read the thread about p99. Read the gigantic circle jerk about how Salty should start his own classic server from whiners who openly admit that they train, use cheats, multi box, etc., and want to be able to do so with impunity on a server run by someone who does all of those same things. I just think they shouldn't get that satisfaction, and no one wants p99 to be associated with that. Furthermore it makes no sense for p99 to give away its source to its competitors. I think anyone can see how idiotic that is. Let other servers work for a comparable population instead of being lazy and stealing someone else's hard work.

Yeah, you clearly just don't see the efficiency gains from open source.
