prefered server list

[Angelox]

Again I'll state the way the Login server should be- and this is not because i want to be mean or put anyone out, it's just the way things should be.
In Diablo (Blizzard), there's three types, the 'Ladder', the 'Normal', and the 'Do what you want' servers.
we need something like this;
First of all, anyone who starts a new server, should be placed in an area where they will not interfere with the already running and stable servers. Lets say you have a server going for a month, then you get pushed up to another status.
There should be a division of servers made up for Legit servers only, and maybe a forum of server administrators who will vote on who stays or goes. The reason for a server to go , would be because its not following legit rules that were posted at the Forum. As a matter of fact, even the Custom servers could fall in that category, so long as they are legit.
Then there will be the 'free-for-all' group, which there is no control and you can do as you please.
But this is just a suggestion for a start to a change for the better (does not have to be like that).
What We really need is a group of people that can vote on what to do and has control over the Public Login. Even if we had to ask someone to make us a new Login, I think we should. I know people say it can't be done, but with people like Derision around, I don't believe that's true anymore.
I know this is all radical, but, we need to change. I have two pets in the house - and I love them with a passion. If I ever started getting bored and stopped caring for them, I would make sure I found someone else to care for them.
Same thing goes for all these forums, logins and source. If you got bored or tired, please pass it over to someone who cares! Just always remember all the people who put work into all this.

When it comes to EqEmu History, a good outline is in the changelog.
I feel guilty because I finally figured out a big piece of the changelog is missing from when EqEmu started. These people are part of this 'story' and should not be forgotten!

Anyways Mr Derision; When you gonna make us a new Login server? - Just joking.

I completely agree with having brackets and time frames for servers. I've been open for only a couple months now, and I would hate to see people leave a long running server for mine, or that just having mine mixed with everyone is enough to throw off numbers. Fact is I have no intention of leaving, but history shows that most servers don't last. I also think that people with exceptional work on the forward progress of the emulator should have some say in the setup... Angelox is a perfect example of someone devoted to the advancement of the emu and his opinion and voice should be heard loud and clear. There are plenty of other hard working individuals that could form some kind of council...
