everquest is a difficult game to optimize for because the code base was written in code that isn't easy for developers to look at add and subtract from. the time when blue was added into multiple hotkeys was written in and not documented fully, so the devs that went in and edited the code base and pushed to prod were really making it worse for future versions and servers. the amount of multiple tables the data base of code has to go through for a simple hotkey is outstanding, and the volume of requests that are send per account is pretty immense to the server. while the server may cost 600 dollar, all the donation just end up in the pocket of rogean and nilbog. while they probably deserve it for recreating the emulation experience of games we all enjoy, and love, it's funny that they dont just spend 10 bucks a month to hire some retarded community manager and a few staff to manage the forums, removing teal trading forums, and minor bs updates that would take 5 seconds and don't need apporval. but instead they spend their days buying coke and rums from a chinese drink cart every other night because rogean and nilbog both renounces their citizenship and moved to singapore. It's kind of crazy to think about how just evading a nations laws are so simplifed by just vowing some things and moving. the problem with the code base to not get on a tangent, is that there are millions and millions of lines of code, and if the associated tables arent aligned, then atomic alignment can't really happen even if you onboard new devs to the project. I think a lot of people on this website are correct in that the amount of people that are playing, vs the amount of rmt is outweighing the server admins/owners to really give a fuck. we're basically all supporting an early access game that ends up not delivering because the people that take on these giant projects become ghosts to community engagement.
Another red scumbag calling out lord father Rogean and his fallen angel nilbog... LOL. This is why there will never be a new red server.

Yeah f that guy. Rogean just posted that the server has a significant cash balance but they're looking for hardware donations to save money and spend the donations responsibly. I guess the scumlord thinks Akamai hosting is free.

People will dismiss this post as trolling I'm sure, but you hit it right on the nose honestly.

The shitty community ran off most of fairly normal folks, and will continue to do so until server is shut down. Unfortunately just how it is.

All the problems of p99 could easily be resolved with enforced rotations or instancing, who knows how many thousands of players quit due to the "competitive" philosophy of the server.

Not as many as you would like to believe.
