Raid addicts.

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.

I am impressed anytime a server remains on the login list longer than 2 weeks. It tells me that little Jimmy's mom didn't make him take it down and do his homework so he can get A's and not become a deep fry operator at McDonalds when he grows up.

Good luck, Mort. Just keep the ego in check, you'll be fine.

KingMort · #3 05-31-2008, 02:08 PM

Thats hard to do sir

I am very proud of my server.. I would not go as far as calling that EGO but I do know that some people who have been involved with my server in the past did not pan out to be "Trustworthy".

The only advice I can give this community is, Be slow with changes, TAKE YOUR TIME...

Be very slow about trusting anyone with any access , They may steal your project..

There are Pirates all over the place, you got to keep what you have close to you and work hard at what your good at.. In my case Leading raids was my strong point..Hence the name Raid Addicts..

Your sure to find a very challenging server with content reaching back OVER 6 years.. Again I apologize for the In-Correct date earlier I just didn't have the facts..

Thanks Secrets for showing me the exact dates btw

Actually, the first version of Winter's Roar was created around March/April of 2002, around a month after I signed up on EQEmu - look at my regdate. Not that it honestly matters much which server is oldest, I just thought the claim that your server had been around longer than EQEmu itself to be amusing.

It was March, apparently. I remember that problem holding me up for a few days prior to 0.2.6 being released.

Sure does seem like a long time ago.

The Scorpious2k server appeared May 18, 2003...

I guess that makes us a new server :P

So wiz, a little oopsie about a server date upsets you, but not someone bashing your code and saying how illegal you are doesnt? I really wanted to see what you had to say about that. And "technically" Winter's Roar doesn't exist, since it came down and sod formed yata yata yata. "Don't get mad wiz, i have all sorts of 65 toons of your server 65+ w/ combine gear, i got love for ya"

So yeah Don't derail my thread guys.

Raid addicts is fun, Shards of Dalaya is crazy good as well, S2k is fantastic.

3 custom legit servers who have been around for a long time, and I suggest you guys try out each and every one and see which one fits you best, because you can get something out of each and every one.

Now no more e-pean about how old someone's server is, it doesn't matter, all that matters is that it's up now.

I'm not upset at all, just correcting a factual error. What makes you think I'd be upset over a simple memory slip?

I fully agree that whether a server is 2, 3 or 6 years old says nothing about the quality of the server and which server is 'oldest' really doesn't amount to much.

KingMort · #13 05-31-2008, 08:29 PM

No I suppose it doesn't matter.. I never said my server was older than eqemu itself either... It is older than www.eqemulator.net however.. You may recall the split being that you have been around as long as me...

As I said the amount of years I have been doing this sure seem like 8, so I am sorry for the NUMBERS error that you folks are so fond of bashing...

And agree , every server has it's high points... WR aka SOD has their brilliant coders and custom stuff, My server has it's raid content, S2k well I'm not sure honestly I have never played there.. All of the server ops have busted ass too I am sure to make their servers what they are..

Sorry Aonelyn didn't mean for your post to turn into an "E-Peen" contest. I blame Mattmeck !

While we are at it

Here are some other fine servers, who have some real sharp devs

Jest
Vallon Zek PVP
Storm Haven
Edge Server
Nug Blazers

I'm sure I forgot a few, lots of talent out there in our community

plenty of good coders around and working hard toward a more perfected eqemu.. The community has never been so good IMO...

Was I the only one amused by Aonelyn's e-peen being "up"?

TessEQ has been up (and locked

) for 2 years straight - though I am not a dev, nor do much with it but reset it once in a while. I hope to be open someday, but life is just too busy lately. I just like the fact this code is stable enough to say it has stayed running for 2 years.
