I ran across that server too,and yes it does seem very very "similar"to Jencos CKV.A little too similar maybe?

It looks like someone heard the pleas from so many people to have a classic progression server and decided to step up to the plate.

Does it have a website?

Complexity is really rough right now. Your toon doesn't start with a weapon or food, no quest, including turning in you letter to your guildmaster is working. It may turn the corner, but it's a lot further away than Jenco's was.

I like the ideas and would be willing to help out in any way I can.

The server is not classic. If you want classic check out http://www.kheprigames.com/ someone needs to host that client and then we will have classic...

Tantalar, it seems that you have no understanding of either computer programming nor copyright law.

It is technically illegal to host old versions of the files, or new versions, for that matter. Which is why you a required to have a copy of titanium. Hosting any of the client files will get SoE to start sending take-down notices for copyright infringement, as you don't have the legal right to distribute their copyrighted works.

And it's not as simple as just using an older version of the emulator and database with that client version. There is a good deal of work that has gone into the emulator since then that has not been backpatched into older versions of the emulator. If you've never worked on a complex software project you're just not going to understand the sheer amount of work that would be involved.

You also want something that you're just never going to get. The past is gone, and you need to let go of it. You seem to also have a very warped view of what classic was like, and how hard it was. You are never going to find a magical time machine that will transport you back to 1999 so you can play the original game. And honestly, you seem to care more about the appearance of the UI than you do about actual faithfulness to the classic EverQuest.

I was referring more to the fact that Jenco is now apparently hosting that server, judging by the MOTD and the recognizable *GM-Impossible* tag.

www.eqclassic.org is using the old client. They are doing it. They think they can get away with it and have thousands of followers who think they can do it. They ARE doing it. I dont know if they are going to get away with it and I dont care if they are going to get away with it.

I never talked about myself hosting the old client. I talked about hosting a server like the CKV server. You twist everything that I say and then use it to attack me relentlessly and it is really fucking annoying so just stop it already. I am sick of hearing your constant bitching. If you cant go one post without bashing and or degrading me, just don't bother posting! I don't come to these forums to hear a rampant assault on me. I'm not here to harass you,attack you, and vent my frustrations about you like some immature child, so if you cant grow up then just leave.
