ok, this is getting a litte OT bit here we go:
Tuning EQ for an population of well under 100 people per server is no easy task. Much of the thinks that are taken for granted by the Sony Developers are not there. Like the ability to buy or tradeskill for equipment well above the level to obtain it even with a full group. Also much of the world is deserted because anyone goes to the zone with the best loot and exp. On EQLive thist might be fine but imho not on EQEmu. There should be some way to make older zones, quests and items more appealing to players. How that could be done without making a custom DB I am still pondering.

Unfortunately most Players only want a fast fix of EQ, which they cant have on EQLive. They cant get fast enough to the highest level and get the best gear but are the first to cry for new content. Typically they get very agitated on each bugfix and 'nerf'.

The below is a thread I started on the Darktides forum, I was rather baffled by the response. It is a perfect example of how the average player thinks. Hell, even I could not contain myself and used every bug I found and reported until it was fixed.

A few more acerbic and bitter threads and ingame chats later I decided that my time was better spend helping the community.
