I understand your point...but consider this - I joined after 5.3...I can't run a non DR server.
I see your point though. I do need to be more patient I suppose. I'm just impatient by nature. And no...I don't owe the devs anything, just as they don't owe me anything.
I have been doing some bug hunting here and there however, and I'll continue my efforts as such. As it stands, I'm online much of the evening (6pm-11pm EST), so if anyone needs any help testing a server out, let me know. You can catch me on AIM as RexChaos.
So anyway, @%$@ the binaries. When I get em, I'll get em.

I just hope they come out before this EQ engine upgrade....although I'm thinking it will just be client side, I wouldn't put it past SOE to find a retarded way of doing things that breaks EQEMu.
/groan /em prepares for the worst
