This behavior you're exhibiting isn't new, it's simply the same old same old amplified and put down where it can't be erased and forgotten.

Let me remind you that the weight of the world is not on your shoulders. You're tinkering with an emu server here, not working up a cure for cancer. Protests that you've got a rough life and are sacrificing your incalculably valuable time for the good of the community by slaving for hours to produce a shining gem in a sea of mediocrity aren't exactly the way to go.

You recently responded to someone who accused you of being schizophrenic by saying that you weren't delusional. That's kind of like responding to "Do you like Beethoven?" with "No, I'm not even hungry." Hate to break it to you sunshine, but anyone who thinks that they're going to make a living running an emu server is most assuredly delusional. Your behavior is at best delusional, and I strongly suspect a certain amount of bipolar disorder.

I know, on the internet (and real life) that anyone hinting vaguely that someone isn't on the right path is engaging in negative and vindictive behavior. I assure you that this post is not made to tear you down, you've done enough to that end on your own with no help. This is a wake up call mate.

TL;DR? Get your personal issues under control before engaging with the public, either online or in public.

Drakiyth, the sooner you realize that EQ Emu servers are all part of the same community and really not in direct competition with each other the better off you will be.

Trolling Akkadius is probably the dumbest thing you could do... He really should not have to waste his time with that.

For most servers I would agree with you but when the core of your server is donations, then people playing on other servers hits you directly in the pocket book.

I think its pretty clear Drak is unemployed or underemployed, had a good run on donations when his server was fresh and he is now feeling the squeeze.

At the very least, hopefully you can keep all of your server update spam on your server website now.
