Aergad, the next negative post I see from you anywhere on these forums is going to get you a permanent ban. Not that you haven't had dozens of accounts banned here already and still keep coming back and causing the same issues.

In case you didn't know, AX database is Angelox's Database and Angelox is a member of the developer team on these forums and has access to update the SVN himself! So, if you are concerned about issues with that database and it's compatibility, then you can't blame that on PEQ. Though, I am not aware of any issues with the AX database that are limitations of the server source code.

You started the drama in your own thread by practically demanding a reply as if it was your right to get one. Believe me that I have made plenty of threads that didn't get replies at all. You only waited like 8 hours before making your snide comment.

Not only that, but the entire EQEmu team (and most of the community) knows how much you constantly badmouth us, and you really expect us to snap to attention and help you out immediately?

The guild bank doesn't work because that is a whole system that would have to be coded from scratch for it to work. It would most likely require doing some structure and opcode work as well, which is no easy task for Titanium and probably wouldn't be all that easy on SoF either.

Speaking of SoF:
Code:
maybe if they spent more time making the stuff in one client work before moving onto another threads like this wouldnt even need to be started
That comment is so ignorant that I don't even know what you are expecting to gain by making it. Yes, the Titanium client could have more features finalized for it. But, just because the current official client isn't 100% finished doesn't mean we shouldn't move to a newer one. If we used your mindset on this issue, we would still be trying to get the 2001 version of EQ working 100% perfectly so we could finally upgrade to a newer client! If we are ever going to upgrade our client, now is the time to do it. SoF is almost certainly going to be the last retail release of EQ. This means it is the last legal version of EQ that we can point our members to getting. It includes all previous expansions which again makes it a perfect candidate. It adds 100+ new races, 80+ new zones, 250+ new weapon models, a ton more icons, new spells, more new features, and doesn't have many of the client limitations that Titanium has.

If we ever want to upgrade, we should do it sooner rather than later. The main reason for this is because we could then be fixing stuff on the new client, adding new features on the new client, and getting old features fully functional in the new client. In most cases, the fixes would probably be backwards compatible. But, we shouldn't have to do all of the work to get stuff going on an old client just to have to do it again for a new client. We should set a standard and use it.

Just because the team isn't doing whatever it is that you want them to do doesn't mean we aren't doing what we should be doing. Keep in mind that we all do this for free, so we work on what we want to work on and what we think deserves it. I made it my personal goal to help the emu in a big way and get a new client working and now it is almost fully complete (at least up to how complete Titanium is). Other devs like Derision and KLS have helped as well, but they have also been working on non-SoF at the same time. Either way, we don't need to justify what we work on to you.


Code:
and when did eqemulator become project eq's babysitter they are seperate and the emu shouldnt cater to any ONE Server reguardless of what the server does
The PEQ DB and AX DB are the most widely used databases for EQEmu. So, the source code is mostly focused around working with them. But, there has been no reasonable change turned down that I am aware of. There are plenty of things that go in that have nothing to do with PEQ, and anyone in the community is able to submit code to these forums and get it added to the source code. If you really want to get guild bankers working, then feel free to do it yourself and keep the code or submit it to us, I don't care. If you can't get someone to do what you want around here, then your only option is to do it yourself. But, don't complain about not getting your way, because we aren't going to be sympathetic.

Now, go ahead and make a snide remark so I can ban you for good. Then you can make another account, pretend to be a new identity and start the whole process over again, Cole

Like the bots

If I knew the source code better I'd so be up for coding these in, but I'm lazy :P

To be fair I was with the project far before I was with PEQ. I like PEQ because:

a) They're mostly nice people... mostly.
b) They have a large player base.
c) They have active members of the dev team.

Personally I don't see what the issue is, I converse as much with Trev now as with PEQ almost. If people have an issue they can talk to me about what they think I'm holding back for PEQ's sake.

I can't really think of anything that I have, and I could. I could have said, "Sorry guys but that really cool out of combat regen thing you just made? Yeah, sorry that can't go in cause it doesn't fit with PEQ progression". I didn't though. I also didn't stop Derision from fixing tributes or stop Trev from implementing the SoF client(heck I even helped).

I also don't always have a comment on things immediately, I'm sorry but sometimes I just don't have much to say /shrug.

Hey, could I bring up my not getting my original account back because I never updated my email, and so never got the PW changed? Just teasing, that was clearly my big OOPS for not visiting the site. Never helped that my internet was down for over a year for lack of money. Kids need to eat, and well, I had to work. Anyhow...I can still use 2 of the LS accounts from my lost forum user so its not too bad...yet At any rate, I have not once seen anyone on here...member, dev, admin, whoever, that was not reasonable first. And KLS? You're just too sweet. Don't ever change. C.D. is my hero, as are everyone tha helps with this project. And don't blame me, a little praise now and then helps. Smile and move on.

Lastly, I wouldn't post "off topic" if this was still a meaningful thread. Still, sorry to do so, just from forum rules.

That is because there isn't an issue :P

The lovely IRC folks (not all, but certain ones) are just trying to stir people up there by claiming conspiracy on any theory they can think of lol. I have some really funny logs from IRC the other day of Aergad being owned by doodman that shows a perfect example of how paranoid these people (not doodman) are. The crazy ideas and lies they come up with there are just way out of hand and I don't want to see that type of activity here at all.

I am almost to the point where I want to put a banana in my ear:

Demanding attention, much less free work, is out of line.

This is the "feature request" section, not the, "do it now . . . why hasnt anyone responded? . . . they must hate me! . . . /cry /cry " forum.


In your 130+ posts you should be well aware by now that this forum is about sharing ideas to make the hobby we all enjoy better. If you EXPECT something out of this forum, or the VOLUNTEER contributors, you are in the wrong place.
