What is with tards today thinking you can't criticize something without making it better yourself? With that logic there would be no movie or video game reviews, or anything else. Get a grip.


Honestly because thats how things change. Someone gets fed up with it and takes it upon themselves to change it as they see fit. People that just wish change came from other people and assume it to be easy are pretty much useless. You wont get the change you expect exactly until you do it yourself.


I don't really care about the world, I have seen it all before. I just like the way the combat and some of the classes work. Some group content is really great in EQ when you play it with people or box it yourself. Raiding ruins everything though imo.

well thats already been replicated pretty well. What more do you think should be done to expand upon whats already in existence? Take that information and send it to someone working on the project. It seems like the best chance you will get at getting something out of what you are complaining about.

Replicated where? I wanna play it. Also most people that can make a server, make it to their own idea of what would be good. They wouldn't want to hear my ideas for a server. Also this thread wasn't really supposed to be about the servers themselves. It was supposed to be about the creation of them and also EQ Emu's bad account creation/management.

don't you think you have enough threads?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

wow OP is very stupid
Umm..... yah. Ignorant definately which on its own is perfectly fine: most *normal* (non IT, non tech) people cannot grasp how such a game is made and works on the inside.
Problem lies more with bitchy entitled consumery attitude towards people who reverse engineer stuff for fun in their spare time.

I really can't even tell what he's asking for other than a better login experience.
Easy. Attention. Maybe if he is Trolly/bitchy/whiny enough he will *fit* in with the *cool* Troll posters he idolizes so much !!

EQEMU folks do a great job though. They have already invested more effort than a 17 year old fading game warrants IMHO, and as already stated, with very little help and information compared to the enormous Wow community. A very commendable tribute to a great game in its prime.

Its honestly not important for anyone to improve on account management/creation. Its easy enough, people seem to be able to figure out how to use it. What do you want it to be? More accessible? More modern? I mean, it works, you can log in and create accounts. Its not broken. If you cant recover your accounts through SMS you're doing it wrong. If you dont like it, just play on TAKP, they have great login/account management tools. Plus creating another server list and emu would just split the tiny community that eq emulation is even further. I mean TAKP used to not even be on EQemu server listings, the biggest reason they are on the server list is to attract more users. So its obvious they want to increase the amount of users through going using eqemu.

You seem to think complaining about something will solve something. It wont. Provide your own solutions, start coding!

I think the real reason you are mad is because you forgot your account pw. Has nothing to do with the folks that created the shit you use for no pay. But yeah, go ahead and bitch at them.

And no EQemu devs or any emu/Open source dev needs to be nice/professional to you. They do this shit for nothing. They arent gaining a damn thing from attracting you. If you want professionalism, go pay monthly for an active MMO that is ran for profit. You came here criticizing shit people work on, offered nothing, and people called you out for it.

Ok but at least wipe all that come off your face.

It is to me and everyone who lost their accounts. If it worked the way it was supposed to, I could log 24 characters into PEQ with one click. But instead it requires about 40 clicks, so I just don't bother.

Wrong. It is broken, look it up.

If you dont like it, just play on TAKP, they have great login/account management tools.
But they have a population of 10 people and you can only 3 box. RIP the real Al Kabor.

If it was done better everyone would just move.

No

I think the real reason you are mad is because you forgot your account pw.
I haven't forgot my password, I have access to about 20 eq emu accounts, but some of them are "unverified" and when googling it I found countless posts of people who did lose their password and all their characters.

It has everything to do with them, they made it...

Nobody called me out on anything. I can criticise something that is broken and bad. They don't need to be professional, and that's why they aren't. Some people take more pride in their work.

Your login recovery problems have absolutely zero to do with anyone except Rogean.

dunno how many times people have to tell you that before it sinks into your brain.

It is to anyone who doesnt keep track of their shit. End of story, and great job saying you are too lazy to click something 20 more times but you have access to 20 different accounts. Ur full of shit cap'n

Wrong. It is broken, look it up.

it operates, enough for me. I have never had an issue with retaining any lost passwords, and I use PW recovery/SMS recovery alot.

But they have a population of 10 people and you can only 3 box. RIP the real Al Kabor.

I play on TAKP, but hey, I brought my friends, because I have some. More and more I see indications of a person who is socially retarded.

If it was done better everyone would just move.

IF that was true TAKP wouldnt have listed their damn server on emu.


Guess you dont get anything that you want then. Thats how this goes.

I haven't forgot my password, I have access to about 20 eq emu accounts, but some of them are "unverified" and when googling it I found countless posts of people who did lose their password and all their characters.
I think i had your problem with an account, and I was still able to fix it. Is this the first emulated game you have played?

It has everything to do with them, they made it...

Your complaints have to do with what you think of something that they made, and not them personally. Are you calling them pieces of shit for making something wrong or am I missing something?

WAT? 40 is not 20 more than 1. Learn to count. To log in 24 accounts one by one and having to type passwords in each one etc. is a huge chore. If the accounts are working properly you can login all of them with a single click.

it operates, enough for me. I have never had an issue with retaining any lost passwords, and I use PW recovery/SMS recovery alot.
bs. Read their forum.

I play on TAKP, but hey, I brought my friends, because I have some. More and more I see indications of a person who is socially retarded.
I have friends, they refuse to play a 20 year old game. But suggesting you should populate servers yourself is super dumb, even for you.

Guess you dont get anything that you want then. Thats how this goes.
No it isn't. p99 and rogaine appeared out of nowhere. Someone else will eventually. Or Pantheon or something will come along and make all this obsolete anyway.

There is no fixing it. You are full of shit.

You appear to be missing a basic education.

You're boxing 20 accounts and still typing login info manually instead of using auto login?
