Ironic you would mention this, because just today I was walking around more of the EQLive landscape than I have in years... and I noticed the populations. 1 player in these zones, and that player was me, or one mage with their uberpet. Even PoK had 18 players. I about fell off my chair. Started me thinking, not if - but WHEN EQ1 dies, I hope to God this Emulator can pick up the slack, because while I am not an avid, hardcoregamer, I do love this game most. Crappy gfx or not.
This scenario is what has lit my fuse to get better data, and try to stablize this product. If SOE closes the door, what would we wish we still had access to? (I am on the enb-emulator project too, and believe me, that one hurts with no server to sniff from).
