1. Its free
2. No
3. Because you don't have to pay :P
4. Some still play on EQLive servers, I still do.
5. Change your eqhost.txt in your EQ directory to this:
[Registration Servers]
{
"eqlogin1.eqemu.net:5999"
}
[Login Servers]
{
"eqlogin1.eqemu.net:5999"
"eqlogin2.eqemu.net:5999"
}
6. You have to make new ones
Hope this helped
*edit* Forgot to add this: If you patched to the current EQ version, you will not be able to play on the emu servers until they are fixed. It needs the version about 2 patches ago (not counting LoY patches)
