A lot of these regular players know how to install a game to play it, without having to worry about advanced computing.
but this installer is obviously going to attract a lot of them who, all of sudden, have hopes of having their own server.
I assume this was anticipated when the "easy installer" was introduced, right ? Before that, you saw tons of these players
having difficulty creating that "eqgame.exe" shortcut just to play on these servers. Now what are they doing ? LOL

I agree that newbies need a little computer knowledge to get themselves through the installation process, but the installer
indirectly implies that one doesn't need to know much at all. It used to in older guides, but even the modern guide on the
wiki has a few glitches that might be confusing to a newbie. For example, in the login server part, it shows this :
"Uncomment the address tag and put the local LAN IP" Is that not making reference to the old xml config ? Many "little" things
for newbies to sift through and learn in both pre-install and post-install, after they get the guide figured out.
