A FAREWELL TO BOTS...

We have finally found the main source of lag spikes and it was coming from bots. The current build we are on does not support bots very good and it's causing major problems in the database running them. Overall to eliminate the lag and make your experience on the server better we had to axe them. A new buff-bot will be joining the server soon and it will help new players out a bit. We encourage players to group in Varlyndria: Ascension, but don't want solo players feeling left out completely. There are paths that are better for groups and some that are great at soloing just like live EQ. I wish we could of kept them but the source code is a nightmare to fix and honestly the server needs a major turn-around in how it works. Players need to come together more to make this a true mmorpg experience. There will be many changes coming to make a new player's life a lot better and easier to get into the server. Especially now that I can focus on content and not lag issues.
