OMG you guys have been busy! Words cannot describe my pleasure in seeing what you guys have been up to. I must say the emu is rapidly approching full on semi-verant status.

One feature in particular which has sparked my interest is the #guild setdoor command. I am assuming it allows a guild leader to set the targetted door as "locked" to non-guild members. Am I correct? If my assumption is accurate I am greatly impressed with that feature. I believe it will add a more life-like feel to the server and the guilds which inhabit it.

All together it looks great! This release took care of a LOT of things. I look forward to working on the new database and invoking all the new features! WTG Devs!

Wow, I can't wait until 0.3.0 is out. I'll probably be running around clicking on all the doors (after, of course, I summon all my items (http://forums.eqemu.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1103)). With the door stuff, does that means that the lifts work in Kelethin?

As to Jay's comment, it looks like the #guild setdoor command is for GM+ only (100 or above). This is probably a good idea, otherwise one guild leader could lock other guilds out of the banks or something :) But otherwise, that sounds really neat as well!
