The last comment has been a bit harsh. First we should all take our hats off to the developers.... I have not seen anyone do a better job - and until they do, they do not have the right to flame.
A quick summary of what eqemu has that eqlive does not....
1) Unique quests designed for particular servers (like scorpious2k).
2) Unique items (most legit servers offer this).
3) Re arranging zones to create new worlds (like winter roar).
4) Unique PKing rules (like guildwars).
5) Unique story lines (like scorpious2k)
6) Many of the non-legit will allow anyone to be a GM so they can learn the commands.
7) Unique NPCs.
Unique Creatures (like scorpious2k)
9) Better support (most support 1 gm for every 5 players)
10) Less players, so you get to know most of the players online.
11) Atleast one server has also broken the Level 65 Limit.
It is true that some quests do not work, some zones crash frequently, login server does go down, and some of the other minor problems which have been listed - but keep in mind that this is still growing and is not a finished product. The flexability in which most people can experience is unbeatable by eqlive.
Also keep in mind that a server will normally consist of several computers, and a great deal of time to set up. Support these people, dont flame them!
This project (and for that matter, even the servers which are open to the public) is only as good as the people supporting it. If you have a problem with something - then lend a hand. If you cant program - report bugs, or go to your favorate server and prove yourself and they will normally allow you to help on their server. If you still are not happy then create your own server or just go back to eqlive (most players do both eqlive and eqemu - so their needs are being met).
