Which is why I asked about a pay server. I much rather devote my time to running a quality server than trying to balance a full time job too.

No you can't quit your job and live off a eqemu server. For a number of reasons.
1) As soon as you begin profiting from an EQEMU server, you are breaking the law. Sure there are technicalities you could work around, but for how long before sony sues your ass?
2) The bugs in EQEMU are numerous, the game is playable but also very broken, nobody would pay to play, they would sooner go to EQlive.
-Fear doesn't work
-Bards instrument modifiers dont work
-Many bard songs dont work
-Bind wound is broken, it's bordering on working properly
-HT and LH broken
-Combat is not like live, player damage is way off. lvl 2 monk has 102 attack, etc
-Weight Reducing bags dont work
-Many haste items and mana regen items dont work
The list goes on and on.
The only thing keeping EQEMU within legal eyes right now is the fact that it's free, and they only distribute code they have written. (You must obtain the eqclient by legal means of purchasing everquest)
