Just a few thoughts, so people who might complain see the big picture.
- First, this server is free to play on. It's not uncommon for us to work on this server for 16 hours a day, spending basically all our free time on this. Tyler and I devote most of our free time to this server and ask nothing from you other than to stick to the rules and consider to donate if you choose to share the costs
- We continue to run this server because we love EQ. This is not our job, we aren't making a living out of it. If we change something ingame, if we do anything, we do it for the benefit of the server and to improve player experience.
- This server is meant to offer group or boxable content, it's not a solo server where everything is going to be handed to you on a silver plate.
- The donations we have received are very appreciated, we are still having to pay a lot from our own pocket.
About BoTs:
- BoTs aren't deleted, they are there. We just denied the access to players.
- If bots end up being completely removed we surely will change the game content based on your feedback. We will make things easier, or let's say to have a proper difficulty
- We are looking for a way to offer BoT usage to ppl and ONLY ppl who are keen to settle on our server, to those who care about this server, and for those who will keep playing here without exploiting.
- People who are just on the server to hack and slash (in a non-legit way) to lvl 70 shouldn't play here, and we need a way to prevent them doing this
