This is not good in any way, imho.

I'm still pissed about this, it's really just too bad that it happened this way. I wish everyone could be happy in one community / on one server.

Imagine P99 is in it's infancy back in 2009/2010. And I'm sure there were many players who didn't like the ruleset here, or disagreed with the staff at the time (or still do). Were they able to go off and make another server with the same source code in their likeness and rip off the P99 dev's hard work? No. Did the P99 community get fractured from the start? No.

I'm sure if this had been allowed to happen, we all wouldn't have this huge wonderful community here on P99 to enjoy for the past 5 years. But instead, several little slightly different/redundant "classic" EQ servers, competing against each other for more players. And, no I certainly don't think that would have been a better outcome.

TAK is the true EQMac emulator in my opinion, it feels like it, it has the community and support behind it from a lot of the orginal Al'Kabor veterans. Yes, it would be great if we could bring together this splintered community into one server. I honestly have friends on both, and it sucks to have to chose one.

the above is what a correct opinion looks like. /agree!
