I just started playing there a few weeks ago myself and havent had many interactions with the GMs. My biggest complaint is every patch has been a nightmare of some sort and they seem to do them on Friday nights so basicly ruining prime time for half the weekend.

This last patch had peoples corpses disappearing, then warp detector going off rampantly and then you were getting constant messages about your being reported for hacking even though you were just running around. With all this and this post at CoV about their tendency to ban people if the GM has PMS, it doesnt seem like it worth continuing to time into this server to just end up being banned for the the slightest slight or no appearant reason at all.

When things are running fine, its a decent server though. Although, the previous post about it being slanted heavily toward melees in PvP is true, but they did finally fix the LoS advantage that melees had with arrows, so the server is a work in progress for sure. Also, the renerfed melee damage, so casters are living longer than 2 rounds now.

But no kinds of work is going to fix what sounds like a fascist GM system.

Ducking for the incoming ban stick.

There's never (ever) been an issue with us not knowing how to do a roll back (rolling back is the easy cop-out way to go), but unfortunately we have more than just you to tend to, and we don't take rollbacks lightly (in fact we've only had to do 1 in the past 6 months, I think we did 2 rollbacks when the server first started back in August). So yes, we try to do everything in our power to correct an issue without forcing a rollback on the whole population. If that causes you great angst, I am sorry that we try to be thorough, rather than knee-jerking database rollbacks - that's just how we run the server. The issue that you are referring to was related to a corrupt inventory table in MySQL, and in the end we ended up having to do a roll back anyway - shit happens, and we do our best to minimize its impact on the players and the community.

I assure you that the GMs on the server are not corrupt, by any stretch. In order to get any power on the server, you've got to pass a background check that's more strenuous than the FBI, so save that whiney shit for a server where it's a legit complaint. The only complaints about our support staff is that we actively hunt down and ban hackers - and yes, we are aware that 90%+ of the players on eqemu hack. We just don't permit it on our server, if that bothers you, please don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.

The rest of your post was just incoherent whining, so I will ignore those. If you had legit issues, you could have easily posted them to our forums and gotten your issues addressed. If that's too much effort from you, then why even waste the time to post a rant about the server? My guess is that you got banned for hacking.

I'm sorry that you skinned your knee, and that we didn't have 5 Guides online during your euro-raid hours, but our support staff is extremely active, and responsive - so I call bullshit on this too. This is actually the first post I've seen about our guides being non-responsive, like I said - chances are, you got banned for hacking, so you're trying to pass off your embarrassment as concerns about the server.

I specifically remember banning your 10+ level 50 accounts myself, so yet again... I have a hard time gathering usable feedback from this post.

Banned players bitching about the server - there's a shock. Excuse me while I go find a grain of salt.

The bottom line is: If you want to be able to use 3rd party apps to play semi-legit on a "legit" server, then don't come to Vallon Zek / Tallon Zek; you will just end up getting banned, losing all of your progress, then lashing out at the server with hate posts on the eqemulator.net forums. If you can manage to play EQ without using Macroquest, then you'll probably have fun here.

If the server was corrupt, then no one would play on it - clearly, that is not the case. And as far as CoV, it's a who's who of banned VZ/TZ players - you guys would probably like it there.

As far as I can tell, I was banned because you guys got a petition from a douchbag newby and probably his butt buddies who had been recently invite to the guild who I told to go fuck themselves when they started blathering on about them thinking some even newer newby to the guild should be getting some loot. Id been in line for said item for MONTHS before any of them even started on the server.

Evidently for a time before the banning I was watched by GMs because of that petition and the only thing said before the banning was We THINK Youre Using MQ. Even though in weeks of watching the best they could come up with is They Think.

When Null , a GM, confronted me about targetting a mob he couldnt figure out how I targetted the mob, I showed him how, which basicly put him on the spot for being an idiot and thus required me getting banned. Its hardly rocket science that the target box for mobs are much larger than the mob itself.

As for having more than 10 toons, what else is there to do on your server. 18 hours of the day, theres barely enough people on to form a group, so leveling toons and farming gear for them is what there is to do on the off hours. Plus, its fun to try different classes out. Something not worth bothering to do on live because of the huge leveling time.

You had people purposely crashing zones on another guilds raid for HOURS, people corpse camping people, etc and the most they got was a whole week suspension and nothing I ever did deserved what happened. As far as I know, I never even had anyone but those selfish fucks petition about me ever.

So yes, you might see why people bitch about you guys. You make unfounded snap decisions and then make sure noone knows about it by making sure they cant even plead their case on the forums.

Unlike most the people on your server, I spent countless hours writing suggestions, reporting bugs and working with GMs and certainly didnt deserve the treatment I got.

Ive had difficulty with logging in while my roommate is dual boxing his monk/shaman, we've decided its likely that this server wont allow more than 2 of the same IP to connect to the server, is there any way around this so that I can also play with him and another friend on the server?

Yep, tell your roommate to stop dual boxing so you guys can play together. We put this limitation in place to foster the teamwork and comradery on which EQ communities are built. It's worked pretty damn well so far; I hope you guys enjoy your stays. =)
