I think EQEmu has the right idea with a lot, and actual gameplay is a TON better on EQEmu... But there is a lot more research done with EthernalQuest, if the raw data of EthernalQuest could be combined with the stability of EQEmu, I think we'd have damn near a perfected project... Just my opinion though.

I forgot to include that I used to exclusively use EthernalQuest, in fact, a user from their forums was the one who linked me here... I have no doubt that EQemu is doing better, but if you have a moment go to
http://www.eqcollector.com/ and check out their data section(found under EQ Database: Explore EqDb, the rest of their site appears to have gone under >_<

... Imagine all of that being combined with all of this.
