We had a button that blinked red, and was huge, forget the exact text that was on it. It was on every single page of the site, it was the size of the EQEmu in the logo at the top.
Can you guess why its not there??
Because nobody saw it, and it did nothing to reduce posts asking how to get stuff set up.
People in general are lazy and want things done for them, and dont want to do crap for themselves.
All the info is there, and nothing to do with how to play is hard to find, I am not kidding when I say it was tested by kids, I have my own kids and there friends test stuff every so often and they can manage to get on and play just fine.

and being treated like idiots by burned out tech support agents and csrs that call the shots here is why the majority of your player base has buggered off.
Seriously, lighten up and just answer questions, no matter how repetitive or stupid they may seem to you.

one little IMHO - can you make "http://www.eqemulator.net/head_01_nb.jpg" image on the top of the forum screens to also be the link BACK to the main page? That little link all way down a bit hard to find =)

Just my little 1/10th of a cent...but as far as setting up the client, to even finding info for building a server, I had no problem at all following the main links on the page. Support info and maybe what I'd call "advanced" configurations is another matter, but far too many possible ways to setup machines and networks, no one is perfect. Like its been said many times over, search the forums. Not going to say that is an easy task, but it has and will continue to do so...help me out a lot. Just need to figure out some of the other things I've got going on, I'll find the answers soon enough. But well done to all that have made this project. Last thing, search first, ask questions later.

Broken links, old wikis, inaccurate stickies, popular topics confusing and reconfusing for years...
Yes, that is a major problem. There just are not enough people to make everything work perfect. If other people's priorities do not match your own, you are free to contribute to areas needing more help. You don't want to spend the next 3 months fixing the wikis, merging all information into a more useable form, and deleting all the old posts/archives? Hmm sounds like everyone else is the source of your problems. EQEmu would be a lot better without them huh? We could enjoy a nice flowery front-page together, maybe have some forums and compete for a post-count?

I'm confused Narc, are you saying people should keep their suggestions to themselves?
