I use to play on a Ultima Online Emulated server and everyone just downloaded the 15 day trial off of Fileplanet. EqEmu doesn't condone of this type of thing because of legal actions and what not, which I perfectly understand... this was just my opinion thats all. I'm sure others feel the same way.

Well the differences for eq vs other games are
EQ does not keep a specific DL up for very long, it changes daily most times.
EQ does not allow other sites to host there patches (WOW) so back patching is then illegal
Because of the way SOE does business in a different way then any other MMO company, they protect themselves hard core compared to most others. Its not about our personal feelings or the way we want tings to be. The decisions are based on whats legal, and on how to keep SOE from closing us down for good.
Our no warez policy and our policy on sending people to buy disk sets, keeps SOE off our backs, because we are breaking no laws.
