Thanks Kavanah!
Well my kids did try it and after the first corpse run they all ditched my server and went back to Minecraft!
I will continue to work on it and keep it going though as I really enjoy playing on it myself. I think my kids are still interested though and I'm sure I will eventually show them a game they will enjoy.

Here are the detailed notes I have on the server with a slight correction to Kavanah's 10x XP increase.. it's actually just 10%, but with 3 epiced bots and a merc it sure feels like 10x.
Some zones are modified where the special attacks have been removed or replaced with spell skills to make it solo/group friendly.
- One client per IP as this is not a boxing server
- IP exemptions is enabled so PM me for access and why you need it (father and son playing together)
- Reduced HP/Mana by 30% for mobs over level 40
- Reduced by 30%: Resists,min/max damage, atk, acc, haste, all over level 55
- Removed No Drop, No Rent and Attuneable from all items
- Removed Class, Race, Deity and required skill from all items
- Bots enabled with 3 spawn limit and increased regen rates
- Mercenaries enabled
- EXP, AAXP and group xp increased 10%
- Vet AA are granted at level 1
- All epics available in PoK. 1.0 at lvl 1, 1.5 @ lvl 60, 2.0 @ lvl 70 (Orb of Mastery slightly "improved")
- Spells and Disc scribe bot in PoK
- Greatly increased skill up rate
- Charm last longer and CHA has stronger affect to it not breaking
- Starter equipment: Bags, STAT Food/Water, Armor dye and Summoned items are avaialbe in PoK
- Death does not leave items on corpse
- Removed all spell component requirements
- Removed keys needed for all doors
- Removed flags for all zones
- Buff and teleport bots in PoK
- Set pets to be able to tank as an NPC
- Removed defiant armors
- Removed all lockpick required doors
- Removed all level requirements to enter all zones
- Changed all Fabled to max level 67 and to scale min/max damage accordingly
- Training dummies added to Crescent Reach near the PoK book
- Changed difficulty of a few zones. Check: Seblis, HateB, Kael, Chardok, Karnors, and Ssra Temple for soloing+3 bots.
- Respawn timers for the named in the zones mentioned above have been changed to two hours with one hour variance.
- Removed banish from Vox, Naggy and Trak
- Prices adjusted so you can cheaply buy gear others have sold to vendors
I work in IT (20 years) as an IT admin so the server is decent:
3x SSD RAID 5, 2x 2.8 GHz Xeon (12 cores), 48 GB ram, 12/5 internet (will change soon to 50/50 fiber), Daily backups and it's located in it's own server room. I have 5 of these servers in storage that I can pull parts from so if anything goes wrong I will be back online in a short time!
I am not a programmer so my port and buff bots are made with what I could figure out of perl/lua. A
BIG thanks to the devs on these forums that have provided tools I use daily to modify the server and special thanks to
Akkadius for the
Operation Center!
Send me a PM if you have any advice or questions. I'm very open minded!
