I didn't see this...

EQEMu Developers should be paid for the hard work they do. But here they are asking.. not even requiring a few dollars to make sure this project doesn't die.. so YOU, yes YOU can play and use it.

I don't see why people can't send a few dollars in.. thats just sad.
Plus.. when you do it, you get a COOL support forum icon. :P

I'll send some money in as soon as I get paypal setup.

I'm supposed to have sent you 100$.. But something went wrong so you may get it twice.

Either way, enjoy.

We only got it once, which is great! Thank you.

Btw, If your email address on paypal does not match the email address on here, it will not automatically update your account, so send me an email and let me know who you are. I try to update them as soon as possible when I find the error, otherwise I do not know who to mark it too (http://www.eqemu.net/?donations is created dynamically from paypal).

Btw, I wanted to let you know the status of the money.

I had to spend a lot of it to keep the site up because money that was suppose to come in for bills didn't. I used $450 to pay for 2.5 Months of internet (To Speakeasy if anybody is wondering).

Then $12.95 for a month of use on an EQLive account so I could get horses. I then bought PP (since nobody would supply me with any heh) to get horses for $44.99. Finally, I got that porn site off our name by paying $50 for eqemu.com (gives us 2 years + transfer). That leaves us with $147.67 in the account, and no hardware bought yet.

If we can get another $800 before January 31st, I believe we can get 2 good servers built out of it, and have virtually no more downtime at all. concerning Login Services.

What is your current Expected hardware that you WANT to buy?? And what state/country do you live in. I may have some equipment (new) that i might be able to donate. What pieces do you need, please list what kind of

Case AT/ATX and type MiniTower/Tower/Rackmount
Motherboard (please specify FSB/Memmory/Type of Processor and stats)
CPU What brand name do you trust? And what speed would you like
Hard Drives (if RAID please list a RAID board with motherboard or a RAID Card)
Hardware Accessories (Keyboard, Mouse, Firewire etc etc what you need)

Also as far as the paying for the EQ account, get with me on email system and i can let you use my account. I only keep it to collect packets anyways. I am working on getting one of my High level EQLive player friends to start working on this project. So should have some more Packets collected from many of the planes.

Just FMI tell me what it is you are expecting to purchase and ill see what i can do.

I thought I laid it out pretty well in the first post. 2 P2 or higher machines (atleast 500's) with 256megs+ ram and mirrored WD 40gig Special Edition (8meg cache) 7200rpm ata/100 drives with promise raid controllers or maybe highpoint raidrocket 133's. These can fit in 4U or 2U (which I found for $82/each and will be usable for us). The graphics cards just need to be PCI with 16megs ram so they dont slow down the system bus. I'd love to have athlon 1ghz processors.

As for where Im at, Im in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex in Texas.

This is the 2U rackmount cases I will be buying. I am looking for them cheaper than $78 + $25 shipping. They will be our cases

DeletedUser · #42 01-10-2003, 06:45 AM

I just ordered a case + power supply. They were $85 for the case, $15 for a 300w power suppy, and $17.08 for shipping adding up to $117.08 grand total. This is the cheapest I found online by $5 (not via the link above, via mpcparts.com). I called in the order today, they said they would be shipped out Monday latest. Hopefully some more parts will come in by then.

im sorry to hear about this, i whould donate, but im only 16 and well, i have no way of getting anything to you, what the big deal is, if you can pay 12$ a month to play normal eq, why not donate 1 or 2$ for a hella lot more fun version of eq

DeletedUser · #44 01-11-2003, 08:53 AM

150 dollars should be coming in tonight.

:( Sorry, it's not a lot.. but I myself am also saving up for new hardware. Possibly when I get the new stuff I can send some of the old stuff, might not be useful, atleast could sell for a bit of profit.

TarponFBplaya · #45 01-11-2003, 04:57 PM

I'm sorry. I really wish I could help but I am without money myself. I use change just to fill up my mustang so I can get to and from school and work. I am always spending my money on car insurance and house payments. I think I may be able to get $5. It's not much but I know that you have spent a lot of time working to meet other peoples needs and I don't believe you get paid for this, but I am sure you get some good hook up's.

Anyways.... EQEmu stuff doesn't work for me now that Verant did that patch. I tryed and tryed to get these updates and stuff but it just said I had to rerun the update patch and crap. Wish I could help more. I wish the best of luck to you and your fundraising.

Any of you readers wanna donate ME some money? It's for a good cause..... My 1993 Ford Mustang 5.0 (302). Pony rims, ram air filter, headers, sun roof, neons, MTX subs....... Wish I could afford XM. LMAO. Naw I was JUST JOKING about donating some money for me. Looking to make myself laugh. My car has done nothing but make me money-depressed.
