Bane of Life isn't classic so it fails.

I am sorry to see VTZ go I was a casual player there and I am going to miss playing there. In my opinion management there was great, they worked hard for us to have a free server. There was a few hackers who ruined it for everyone... good job. As for Bane of Nife being better then VTZ we will see, it is easy to hack pretty much anything, I am not sure how complex the client manager is but I am sure it would be pretty easy to duplicate the packets it sends back and forth to the server with another app basically completely negating the software. I hope this is not the case but hackers are a pretty resilient bunch. We will see.

I have offered to Host it for the staff if they do not accept and this server is REALLY down , I would like to invite the former staff of VZ/TZ to consider working for me on Raid Addicts... As you may have known we have been optionally PVP for quite some time, The trend right now is PVE, but there is no reason (other than some spell adjustments in the PVP world) why the server could not be PVP.. It's always of course up to the player but the Priest of Discord is available, We also have several PVP zones and even an RVR type zone (race wars)

I would like to see the server return but in case it doesn't you guys could find a home on Raid Addicts... THE OLDEST of the Eqemu servers..

It is not just the pvp aspect it is the fact that the database the staff at VTZ customized kicked ass. The staff really did a good job balancing pvp and making it as close to origional as possible.

Yeah I'm sure they do have a nice thing going but for a server that has been around maybe 1 year ? How much could they possibly have... Raid Addicts has been around 7 years... It's like the difference between walking and running...

Again the community is more important than my opinion, I'm of course biased..

If they want to come back , I'll pay for their hosting.. So some one should let them know that..

I don't require any Access, I don't require any GM status, I don't require anything other than they pay me back..

I think the only place you will find balance is on a classic server with classic items.... No one on emu has the staff or the capacities to test 1000s of items for balance on such a large scale as the real thing. Even on eqlive they did a half-a$$ed job of balancing the game PVP wise... Mort nothing against your server but using custom spells and the thousands of hand crafted items that are currently present on your server wont suit PVP. Maybe you should consider running a secondary server like PVPaddicts or something =P. Dont run the chance of ruinning your 7yr server into the ground... <3
