Ahh...going on the pre-emptive are we?

Well...at least it saves you about 100 people asking why EQEmu doesn't work and saying that they 'must of patched and forgotten' 100 threads later.

I only said 100, I didn't say anything about the other 1000 that are going to ask questions.

I wouldn't patch until you are specifically told it's ok to. Verant has been known to patch things early and break the emu. But, who reads warning anyway The forums have PLENTY of proof of people who don't heed these warnings.

There's going to have to be some means of installing fresh and updating up to a working version without going all the way through the Dec 16 patch. Mostly, emu servers will be on separate boxes where fresh wipes & installs will be frequent.

Any ideas?
