It's not just approaching perfection - there isn't a server I've played on that even comes close. We did find a couple that did okay but there were either lag/zoning issues or we couldn't get an admin to get back with us regardless of how many petitions/forum posts we put up (you know who you are). Frankly unless something seriously detrimental happens my buddies and I won't even bother with other servers.

Mega-kudos, Cavedude.

That being said, I'm quite curious - was the initial inability to access the server actually because of Obama being in the area? Don't mean to sound naive but you sounded serious. Let me know - I can totally rub that in someone's face if so.

Theres some decent servers out there. I played couple characters to 18 or so on Order of Hassan. It's rock solid stable but lack of PoK is kind of a bummer even though what they did with nexus was pretty good. If they could just populate it with few more vendors or mess with the starting factions wouldn't be that bad. The edge is just a blast for a couple weeks but doesn't hold you, played that a bit before i found Grand Creation.

Murdersmithy has some promise but being an Old School server with hardly any working quests is going to be a problem. The community has ironed out alot of quests though It's just matter of them getting them in and working and that server could build a nice community.

But nothing is complete up to POK EQ like grand creation. Lots of people do lots of good work on it.

Whenever it gets running again is good enough for me. Every server I've invested interest in so far has wound up tanking, and for a few weak moments I was worried the same had happened. But it was foolishness, since PEQ is the real deal.
You guys over at PEQ make a damn fine server,
damn fine cherry pie, too.

Sorry to hear about the temporary server woes, but I'm bummed too. Just yesterday I went to walkthrough a PEQ forum post called "HOWTO: EQ Titanium on Crossover Mac". Any chance someone has this set of instructions mirrored somewhere? Or does anyone remember them?

My weekend project got a little stuck in the mud :P

I agree with you, Krikk. There have been some good ones but eventually something just goes down.

Sure hope PEQ doesn't tank - if that happens I'll probably end up just running my own (which I wish to avoid at practically all costs) and probably have to limit it to few users due to bandwidth. Plus, I just don't want to administer a server. Only get about 5-6 hours a week to play as is.

Screw you lucid, I'd give up 4 days of EQ some national health care.
