I think the sub-forum is fair. Nobody would have ever imagined that EQ would be alive and well after nearly 15 years but it is. The amount of threads we have devoted to the dinosaur and it's bastard offspring is pretty ridiculous. Also, I would be in favor of bring EQ2 into fold. I for one welcome our misguided brothers.
I say fuck EQ:N, but it's their time. It is the MMORPG of the moment and has the most relevance, intrigue, and interest. It along with the other current MMO's (WoW, GW2, Eve, TESO, PS2, Marvel) should get "front page" priority. Draegan and the Nerd Reich have made the right call here.
