Raid addicts.

[Aonelyn]

For those of you who have never tried it, here is a little summary of the server.

Max level is 87, and you will have to grind your way there. There are many custom spells, and playing on raid addicts is an overall different feel to everquest. You work hard for your gear, but it is very rewarding. The server has been around for years, and was one of the very first custom-legit servers to come to eqemu.

Very balanced, and great customer-support.

Be sure to check it out, i'd love to see some new faces.

Make sure you get the custom spells for the server.


Send a tell to aonelyn ingame if you need anything.

When I was an admin I tried to stay out of this, but the truth needs to be heard.


Raid addicts was started, ran for 6 months then was down for a year, back up for 3 months, then down for a year, then up for a few weeks then down for a year.

Right now is the longest stretch RA has ever been up, and was not one of the first of anything for eqemu.


RA was the first server I helped on, and it ran off my home cable connection for a few months the first time Mort had to drop it. The server is 100% different then it was then, it is a different server then it was last time.

The claims made are lies, I can list 5 server that were up before RA that are still up, and the fact that the server was brought down so many times means half the servers on the list have been up longer.



RA is a good server, the lies and untrue claims just need to stop.

The server is not 100% different if you had ever logged on you would know that... The same quests, the same raids, the same everything from the first day it was opened until now it's been a slow progression...

Yes I did have some times years ago where I was FORCED to take the server down.. The first because i was going through a messy divorce.. The second because the shop where I had my server hosted was burnt in a fire losing all of my work..

8 years this project has continued making it the oldest active server in eqemu, older than SOD, older than S2k, older than PEQ... And trust me even when I could not HOST the thing or afford to rent a server.. I was writing quest material on paper prepping for the day that I would be able to get it back up and running..

For over 3 years now has the server been up and SOLID , even during that 3 years there were times where we had to take it down to fix EXPLOITS...

All of this being the life of a Server Op, which you have never been... Nor are you cut out to be one, that is why I fired your ass 7 years ago from my project... Now you come flame something you know absolutely nothing about? You do know... NOTHING about my server, since you have not logged onto it in over 6 years..

This server is not going anywhere, And it will remain SOLID.. Your Jealousy over not having a server as good as Raid Addicts has taken it's toll on you Mattmeck...

Ban me from forums if you want, but You know that I am right..

LOL.. I love some of the numbers your throwing around Mort..

8 YEARS? ROFL.

So what was your forum account back in 2000, given that the current one was registered 2006?

8 years is pretty impressive, given that even Quagmire's registration date is two years after that and that the emulator wasn't exactly functional before 2002.

[KingMort]

Yes ok , My numbers are OFF and I apologize [archive] eqemu-0.3.2-source.zip 831.3K 23-May-2002

Those were the first Binarys I used with the name Raid Addicts, Inspired by Krushers server <----- Who is far older of a server, but apparently not active atm...

So 6+ years , It sure seems like more to me..

Mattmeck and Rogean started when it was 4.1 , not my first GM's by a long shot..

In fact I got them into Eqemu as I recall lol

And no Wiz I don't remember what it was maybe KingMortenson.. that was a long time ago before www.eqemulator.net was even created.. And Winters Roar.
