EQEmu ecommons more classic than p99

[Drajor]

In p99's quest to please the donators (or themselves not sure) they have utterly wasted east commons.

When you prefix your post with like this I find it hard to take you seriously and I suspect others will feel the same. My unsolicited advice is to tone it down and get on with whatever it is you are doing.

I think if anyone wants to consider donating time to p99 either playing or deving they should consider that it is closed source and their hard work could be gone in a day.

And if anyone wants to consider donating money that their money could be used for champagne and strippers.

Just saying their closed door policy doesn't exactly inspire confidence. So that's why I think statements of mine like you referenced should be taken seriously.

So I'm guessing my initial theory was correct. You got banned from P99 and came here to whine about it. Now that nobody is paying attention, you've gone into troll mode.

If, somehow, you're serious, the "hard work could be gone in a day" argument is true for every MMO on the market as far as the player is concerned. At any moment, EQLive, WoW, SWTOR, GW2, etc, etc could close up shop, meaning their players "hard work" would be lost. That's a risk you take in any online gaming environment, not just one specific EQEmu server.

There's also a logical failure thinking that a server that's fought hard through multiple DDoS attacks, spent a bunch of money on hardware, and spent years of development time would randomly up and close for no good reason.

So that brings me back to my initial thought: You got banned from P99 and the past few days have been a pants-on-head feet stomping event. Well, if nothing else, you made me think about P99 and I spent a few hours on my lowbie Rogue last night. So thanks!
