Guess I'm not going to come back for Kunark then. This is something that is developed first if you expect the project to last more than a few months.

EQEmulator has been around since 2003, I personally don't care if you are here or not, that's not the sole focus of this project.

There was a major security issue in 2006-2008ish timeframe which made us unable to make sure that all accounts were safe. You wanna find us a better idea? Brainstorm one and let us know.

PS: Project 1999 isn't EQEmulator. Don't whine at us about Kunark.

EQEMu started On Dec 6 2001. Image, Hogie, Pyrotek, Quagmire, and a couple others were the developers at the time, Tuxracer was running the website. I joined the team later that same year.

The original sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/eqemu/) still exists and lists the date as 12/4/01.

EQEmulator is just a rename of the same project when Hogie (I think) left the project with the domain.

I'm in a slightly different situation. I know my loginserver account name / pw, need to change the password of the LS account, but cannot because for some reason I either a) cannot find the forum account or b) the Heallun forum account is linked to an e-mail address that apparently isn't mine (I have one e-mail and it's linked to this one). If anyone's savvy enough to help figure that one out I'd be obliged ;P

You do always have the option of actually being an intelligent human being and either remembering your account information, or if that is too much for you, then you could simply securely store your account information someplace. If that is still too much for you, you always have the option to simply write it down on a piece of paper and leave it laying out on your desk.

P.S. Don't care about P99 and Kunark.

This is the most retarded reply I've ever seen.

End users forget passwords constantly. In a system with as many users as EQEmu, you'd think, MAYBE there'd be a way to recover passwords. There's not even a warning that login server passwords are unrecoverable if forgotten to ensure users understand their importance.

It's an extreme oversight with weak reasoning. Security reasons, really? Just looks like Rogean was too busy / lazy to bother.
