Console yourself with the knowledge that you probably already paid more in subscription fees back in the day... and that they give away a more advanced client for free nowadays. Go for the easy option, they practically owe you at this point.

The lowest I've seen so far was about 700 online and that was at like 3-4am PST. So usually a pretty decent population, even in the wee hours of the morning.

Iirc there used to be a "Getting Started" section that had links to everything needed... Granted this was years ago when I got into P99... Theres really no "legitimate" method to dling Titanium other than those mentioned here, and if your totally against that idea...someone mentioned finding someone with a copy and having them burn it for you etc... put yo feelers out there

You're not pirating anything if you're backing up software you've already paid for. That's the entire reason why that sort of thing remains available.

Just torrent it, it's old software that is not available to buy new. DB has said that they don't care about the distribution of old versions. If you need help PM me

This is a free to play game now anyway, torrenting it wouldn't be illegal. Especially if you already paid for EQ in the past.

Also, do you really think the 3000+ people that play on this server actually paid for titanium? I know I sure didn't.

If torrenting EQ isn't illegal than why is it forbidden to discuss using that method for obtaining it on the forums? In fact, I'm kind of surprised mods didn't delete the posts mentioning torrenting, they used to.

I don't think buying it on Ebay is technically "legal", either. I don't typically torrent things myself but in certain circumstances it makes sense. In this case there is no true legit method to obtain it anymore. The game is now free to play (which is why you can't buy it legit anymore). If you played during live you already purchased the content plus subs. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Because it literally does not matter at all. If it makes you feel any better, go buy it off eBay and give your money away for no reason.
