So, am I led to believe that DPG had the eqemu.io domain seized? And then (I assume) filed a C&D with MS/GitHub to remove akk-stack? How are either of those actions legal without a court order? Or did they get a court order from the THJ lawsuit?

Not sure where you got all that from, but any of the resources that recently disappeared, (maps, database repo, etc.) were all being hosted by one of the main admin/devs in the EQEmu and he decided to step away from the whole project, shutting down all the public hosting with it. Now, there are people scrambling to get new hosting in place, (like the docs), etc.

I didn't get it from anywhere, I tried to infer it from available information. I can't find any sort of announcement, only people speaking in vague terms about "the event" or "things that happened".

Was this departure announced only on the discord or something? Why do people in this community keep obeying in advance? Why did this person (I'm assuming Akkadius?) decide to fuck everyone rather than simply transferring the domain names and hosting?

Those are hypothetical questions; I understand that this sort of thing tends to happen in our society, especially in areas where legal status is uncertain. Lots of rug pulls in the news, lately.

This whole thread needs to be put to rest and frankly, I'm sorry I even made that OP. (live and learn) No matter what happened, behind the scenes, with anyone, it's all done and over with, people are moving on.

Read https://massivelyop.com/2025/09/27/t...dit-goes-dark/

There are more than a few links off the url above that will help bring you up to speed. akk-stack being lost was a side effect of what happened. It is being worked on to bring it back. You need to get on the new discord called New Tanaan. Don't have link to it atm.
