Scorp site down maby server

[tsord]

I simply want to point out to the previous post that the EULA does NOT violate the anti-trust clause thingy. IF everquest was the ONLY MMORPG on the market it would. However it is not, and in no way does the EULA prevent other people from making there own MMORPG program to own, mantain, and run and does therefore not attempt to monopolize the market.

the real funny thing about all this is Who is running the Login Server for the Servers you guys paid for from Scorp?? Last I heard Scorp was running that himself or did he also give you guys teh Login Server with that sale? If he is still running the Login then yall may want to take it easy on pissing him off as without that Login all you have is a nice single player game , Well unless you set it up lan and play with some family . LoL

This thread should really be deleted before Sony sees it.

lol.

Hey, I've been thinking a bit about this. What Sony is doing really isn't illegal is it. According to the Copyright, we are only doing something bad if we take what they do and sell it, but we are doing this all for free and such. However, it is their work. What if you made something you like and you find an organization taking your work and changing it, getting rid of customers and so on. Wouldn't you want to stop that? I think those are the terms Sony are thinking under. People might be getting threatened about losing jobs if they don't put a stop to this, so I think a lot of employees are working together to first stop the largest servers (which is why it takes them awhile before another server is shut down), and then stop the smaller servers. They can't go the the actual eqemulator, only the work produced from it. The eqemulator does not actually make the servers, the people do, and this is just a form of communication between everyone on there, so they wouldn't want to take this out. However, they are trying to take all the largest servers out. I don't even know if they will bother with smaller servers. Only servers with 100-200+ people on it are in jeopardy because those are the ones that harm sony a little bit... So if you have maybe 50 players on your server, Sony won't really bother with you. The work and effort they put into shutting down a server is too great to be bothered with those.

Perhaps we should do what EverQuest does then? Have multiple servers up for the same *server*, splitting it up into maybe groups of 20, and then perhaps have a database linking them all up that will allow people to move from server to server. Not sure how that will work, but it will make them think that they are all small servers instead of one large one? Just as long as we keep our mouthes shut about it and only discuss it in IRC or something, and we treat them like multiple servers on the forums.

I like this idea but i think it was very hard to make that :(
