^-^ I really got into EQEmu for it's database. It was fun learning SQL and context design. Thats one thing I have to say for the project, the Database is layed out nice. And thats about it. In the last few months I've noticed something interesting.
Every few days there is another PvP server. I hate PvP in general and it's worse when the GM is a PvPer. Talk about a twelve year old (Ironic that when I started I was insulted after my third post with the claim that a 12 year old could set it up, I wonder if this is one of those ironys I hear so much about?)
As for me, I'm waiting for EQ2emu, and until that happens (Probably never, or worse, a closed source non-obtainable login server) I'm playing WoW with Antrix. I like how there isn't a long load delay because the world thread loads each section. No more drops during zone. My only complaint is that the database design is a little crowded, and while I'm working on the EQemu Editor I don't have time to look into it.
It's been a lot of fun working on the broken wiki and the the non utf8 forum. I liked working with object placement, and there was nothing like the newer levels in the game.
I personally blame Sony for all the trouble, and ever since the root kit incident EQ is more of a reminder of how Sony doesn't care about the common user. When EQ shuts down, this EQemu will be important for the cult players. Till then, expect the weekly servers.
P.S. I'm not trying to be negative, it just comes out that way.
