I want to thank everyone who has dedicated their time and effort into making this such a great community and keeping the game alive.

For those of you who want to do bad things, I feel sorry for your upcoming visit from Karma.

I recently set up a new server to play a little classic EQ with some friends. At first it I set it up for just a LAN session but then decided to connect it to the internet...

Thankfully I set up a separate router and ISP connection to protect the rest of my personal devices. I cleared the logs on the router and within 10 minutes of forwarding ports and being connected to the internet I was being violated...

I simply unplugged the ISP as soon as I noticed the traffic, but if I had not been mindful of the traffic I wonder what would be crawling around in my server today.

I am not a network engineer or a software developer, I dabble with tech a little bit and maybe I am just being paranoid. What I do know is that this person in Russia is hot for my patch.
