The sad part is they long ago quit contributing back to the eqemu project so I can't recommend them.

I quit playing on there due to the catering of the GM's and staff to all the high level players. The killed off powerleveling which is annoying when you have played EQ for as long as I have and want to play a new character Who wants to kill rats and bugs again for the 100th time? They slowly drifted back into what made EQ annoying - being a timesink. It was better back when it was Winter's Roar.

Anyway, I'm getting off track, but judging from what I've seen as far as posts here and the websites I've visited...I admire the PEQ team the most for contributing back to the community.

Looking forward to playing on a few servers as soon as I get Titanium up and running on Linux...got it installed and can get to server select, but it's not letting me log into any servers...so gotta figure that part out now...

To all the server admins/devs out there - keep up the good work guys.
Just a quick comment. I disagree that we(SoD) focus on catering to high level players. The Main Quest, low level treasure maps, adepts, et al reinforce my statement as well. That said, we've also taken a new approach and redesigned the core gameplay and focus of max-level players this week, placing a hard-cap of 18 players for raids, down from 36, to make it easier on folks like yourself who don't really want to gather a large raid force to continue enjoying content once you're 65. You're right though, we did kill off powerleveling as much as possible, because we want the grouping to be enjoyable enough(and it should be IMO) to not even want to powerlevel.
