- Forum / Server account match, same login/password like it is for EQEmu. More user friendly, and way less trouble for players.
- When someone is banned, its for all services, server / irc / forum / ...
- More correspondances between server / forum account. An example is the installation on the board of RPG plus, players can make XP by posting, buy special items on forum / website, and more ... it merge more the player into the game.
- No dependancy from EQEmu, you can stick to whatever version you want, players will be able to play. Here i smell Melwin will answer Winter Run run on a 5.3 LoginServer, sorry, not all server have EQEmu devs in their teams, and i dont think EQEmu would run 12 versions of LoginServers for all the servers that would need it.
- EQLive Account Registration System like, player go on your website, create one unique account for server / forum and its done, no need to do more. Yes, i know Winter Roar found a way to bypass this, but it is not "professionnal" for me.
- If you have a public LoginServer, making a Minilogin is cake, allowing your dev team to work on your project whenever they want.

These, are the major points for me, aka, offer a more professionnal way for players. Dont get me wrong, nothing against EQEmu LoginServer, but when you choose to restrict the access (being sources, database, whatever ...) to something, expect to see peoples not using it.
