Imho
who cares who copies who.. So long as the names ate different.. people will implement the same thing in different ways. the non paying customers will decide which is better. as the real market... competition forces quality improvement.

Im surprise it took over a year for people to start copying my monster race ideas. my code has been available on github for a while.

As a result. im motivated to implement some more things to improve my server

No one is copying your "monster" idea bro. I had it over 3years ago but didn't have the expertise or time (or money) to facilitate it.

I do now, and am making great strides ! Your code you have on github just pointed me where i should be looking. I've made quite a few improvements over the original idea and implemented it differently than you so .

Either way, I don't see how several servers of the same idea are bad so long as no one is stealing code to do it!

Like you said, competition breeds quality!

I think you juat agreed with me.

Ultimately eqlive will poof as it becomes less profitable. and youll see x1000 the number of servers.. people will host their.own portals etc...

When that happens. those of us who are still around will have the opportunity to really be motivated. probably by working together. or at least getting some real data on what context people want to play.

That said. some of the more special servers will find their.niche playerbase. at last.
