Default Pay to Play on an EQEMu server

Would you pay to play on a EQEMu server if it had reasonable uptime (Maybe down once a week for an hour), bandwidth, technical support, new content, etc. Maybe $10 every 3 months or something around there? Please post comments of your answers.

Ideally, yes.

However, Sony would sue the living daylight out of the project, so no.

Why would they sue the project? We aren't hosting the server lol

To add: Its hard to target people of a project on the Internet

I wouldn't refer to it as a pay service; rather say it is donation based. That way there is no inference that profit is being made.

I agree, bb. I'd donate whatever I could, but I wouldn't pay for it.
