EQEmulator Forums - So, here's what I'm wanting to do...

I know that you guys are probably asked these types of questions every day, and it's probably aggraviting but alas, here we go..

I recently went back to live to relive the everquest experience. Both progression servers were past the content that I wanted to enjoy.

I tried boxing 3 characters with mercenaries on a non timed progression server to enjoy the content, but there were a few problems..

A) Mercenaries > raid force. With 3 toons and 3 mercs, I have never died to anything yet. Vox, Naggy, and first 6 islands of PoSky down.

B) Mobs are always down. People *still* keep things like VT, Ssra, etc on farm status for various reasons. This is disappointing to me as I won't be able to do that stuff.

I'd like to make my own server.. I plan on boxing a monstrous amount of characters and seeing how far I can take myself.

Is there a quick guide that shows me how to get a server up and running that would be able to allow me to do this? I would like to progress through at least PoP or GoD... Thanks so much in advance!!!!
