I was Inspired by an OG pvper to write up a cool post about red.

It’s a money game . If rogean gives up the code anyone can make a server that can compete with his . And he will lose some player base / donations

[Penish]

He won't give up the code for someone to make another 50 pop pvp server? Damn that's harsh man.

This post is caca. If the server was alive with pvp magnetress would be like level 8 and never playing.

Would love to see greybread on round 2 doubt he goes 2-12 I’ll give him that,

Yeah I mean I understand wanting to keep your hard work to yourself this project is doing well. I do wish they would experiment more with pvp servers.

I don't blame Rogean for holding on to the DB like it's his baby. The classic EQ spawn tables, quests, items, factions, vendors pricing etc is being systematically scrubbed, lost, or updated. Even our own wiki isn't a complete and accurate record.

The web is changing a lot and information, even trivial information like the AC spawn cycles are becoming controlled tightly for newer games and such.

This project really is a museum. Archive. Of something incredibly unique and special. Not even DBG or SoE or whoever survives from Verant or 989 seems to have backups of spawns, NPC dialog. Tradeskills etc. Or if they do its secret.

P1999 is at least maintaining the only publicly accessible true recreation of EQ in its glory. And a fine job of it.

This is where a real Rallos zek time-line like green has with the changes made to Rallos would be special. Would love to see a close recreation of each iteration of item loot ending with Rallos original rules and no YT in Kunark. Red suffered from being custom to attract players early. We'd be doing a lot better if it stayed truer to classic. Resists, warts, all.

anyone with the skills to make a server could probably just hack it and take it
