What went on with the whole takp/p2002 situation with code, only reinforced the need to stay closed source. Don't expect p99 to go open source.

I know they plan to open another server, that starts over. And will probably stick to a real timeline of patches.

I have seen no work on additional content. I looks like they are following timeline up to luclin release. But no luclin.

I actually play some now myself. I also wanted the same quality and experience that p99 offered. Stuck in Velious forever? Can't pay me enough.

Cats on the moon? I can deal with that.

Fuck cats on the moon. Make it Centaurs on Mars. You have the power to make EQ what it should have been.

anyone who wants to truly better the world releases it for free and open source so people can learn and improve.

noteworthy examples below.

linux
tls/ssl
early id games
tor
firefox


it's not like they are making money off this server. it's not going to hurt their revenue to release it. in fact it would be able to be evaluated and approved by the community. there's no reason to have a black curtain in front of the window here.

That makes sense when there is competition already ahead of you and a need to improve but P1999 is a different situation. Them going open source wouldn't better their position, it would actually worsen it, but it would be a good thing for everyone else.

what do you mean by worsen their position? you think some new emu server is going to trump p99? let me ask you this. why does p99 care about numbers anyways? if anything it means less petitions to respond to.

A high server pop of non-botted players is one of the most important parts of classic EQ. Duh...
