Hello, Ive been playing eq for some time now almost 3 years. This is the first time i have ever tried to play on some of the player run servers and i got some questions. When i try to log onto a server it says cannot log into world try reruning patch. Where is the files for the patcher,lol ? Oh and what is different between the regular live servers and the player run ones like can u make yourself any lvl you want and can u summon items or create your own ? thank you for your time.
