I like the eqemulator, i even play on scorps server. But you have acknowledge a couple of things. The client for eqemulator is Sony's (they designed it, they developed it), all graphics are Sony's. Even the characters you make on live are theirs. What they are doing as I see is perfectly legal, i see that in the EULA of serveral online games now, NO EMULATORS. I know for a fact City of Heroes has it. Usually Sony and the rest of them don't care, until either some disgruntalled player of the free server snitches to them, which is what i think happened with scorps. While i see its not illegal to make an emulator (grey area) is definately illegal to play on one. There is actually an opensource developed from scratch mmporg called planeshift(check sourceforge), which has the client and server from scratch and its open source, if i was a programmer, i would be supportting that. I applaude all the work thats gone into the eq emulator but i think the dreaded big business spectre is looming over the project.
