With one of the bigger account databases & character databases (maybe only 2nd to Eros?), I know how this is. I have been thinking about what I want from my server... I can't stand being on my server lately because all I get are petitions about leveling, or "can I be a gm?". They get mad when I tell them they can be a ServerOP if they goto
http://eqemu.org and download the server software.
I know where they are coming from, but do you really ask for a position from someone you dont know on their personal machines where you can do damage to data? If you do, what are you thinking? Why dont they /petition Can I be a gm? on the live servers?
As for me, I am currently building more zone boxes (and a firewall for my subnet to monitor usage) for Hogiebane. I will be spinning a test server off soon which will probably stay locked unless I need more people on it to test other things.... Since I am a Dev, I will be able to write scripts/programs to update my character tables when (if) we change it. I plan to update Hogiebane to a leveling server when I get more quests & fix the lower level mobs.
