Doesn't negate the fact that it was a fucking mutiny decided on a whim by about 3 people.
If every dev team flipped out over someone missing for a week, we'd be in a world without programs.

The core dev team IS 5 people. the project is being done by 5 people. They were all there, and voted.
There is a reason behind every action in the world... it's a little deeper than a Leader being AFK. This was more or less a sideline thing

It's really not. The team even said 'it's because tcs was always away and not helping.' So they fucked him over, took the project code, and removed a few other people while they were at it.
Instead of remaining calm and actually waiting for a response from tcs, they just decided to bone everyone and move on. Now there's two projects doing the same shit - the WORST thing that could happen.

Move this shit to the EQ forum.
That game was the coolest thing ever.... 8 years ago. Most of us have moved on and could care less about 5 guys who are fighting with each other over a shitty emulator.

This has been the point of my posts in this thread. Coming here to cry about drama caused within a group from another board is sad. Coming across as if that group actually owes you something is worse.

Be a douche about it noel, because everyone here will obviously benefit from that.
Funny how many of the people that have called myself and others out for ruining VV are complete douchebags for no good reason and run people off of VV (whether permanent or temporary) over shit like this... Because you don't think it matters? why the hell is anyone supposed to give a shit about what you want to read? I guess that's all that counts is whether noel, sylvus, etc care about the topic at hand.
Dude was posting about something he was excited about/interested in (all of us do that, btw), if you don't want to read it then don't fucking read it but enough of the making people feel like shit because you don't like them or what they are posting about.. seriously.

This topic has been here for how many fucking days without me saying a goddamn thing? Now I'm going to the main forum and getting an hourly update about a bunch of wannabe-devs and their tampon rotation and I'm supposed to give a shit? I wasn't a dick until he cried all over the thread about Kilmoll's post, and even then all I said was move it to the goddamn EQ forum so I can ignore it like the rest of the meaningless (in 2007) EQ1 bullshit.
He can post whatever he wants wherever he wants. He's the one that threw a temper tantrum, he's got a history of throwing temper tantrums and going WAY too fanboi on total shit, so I really, REALLY don't care or feel sorry for him if he's getting his ass flamed.
Addendum: There's NOTHING wrong with flaming someone on this board. There never has been. The people who are ruining this board do so with a lack of intelligence, abundance of ignorance, thin skin, and total lack of content/coherence.
Go fuck yourself.

If you say so man, I guess it didn't really seem like a temper tantrum to me.. I am just tired of the same old hypocritical bullshit.
When you told me in an email that you were done posting on VV, I didn't reply to you or come here and say DONE POSTING ON VV LIKE YOU ARE DONE WITH <fill in the blank>
It's just the unnecessary shit slinging (about everything from a to z) that is at the root of the VV problems, and it's different people slinging different shit that is making different groups of people post considerably less/stop posting..

I understand that, I'm not implying that you are the worst, because you are far, far from it. And it never bothered me until I got blamed for ruining the CE forums (I can't remember who it was that put that blame on me originally), and now that that's been thrown around by multiple people multiple times I'm growing really tired of the hypocrisy.

It's funny - I actually sat back and thought "why do I use this site?"
Pos:
- Good admins/mods
- fairly active community
- wide range of topics
- some people i've known for years
Neg:
- some total assholes
- irc community has become a sack of shit
- each thread ends in trolling
- Repetitive fucking with people over and over with the same comments
The negatives, to me, far outweigh the positives here. I've tried contributing to this community only to get slapped with a sack of shit in return.
I've requested via PM to py that my account either be deleted or banned. Later.

Why don't you just stop visiting here if it's such a burden? I don't see why people need to ask to be banned or deleted. Like it makes your statement of protest sting just a little bit more or something. Same goes for the drama queens who post "omg I'm never going to post here again!!" and then end up posting a week later.

This is general discussion, no one reads the EQ forums, and I am happy it is here. If it was in the EQ forum I would have never even read it as I have no interest in EQ in its current state. This may be "classic EQ" but it is not Everquest really, its someones pet project. Its a recreation of an old game. I could see you asking for it to be moved to the Video Games forum as it is at least alive and more relevant for this post, but again General Discussion says anything goes. He can put it here if he so chooses.

Quit trying to make yourself out to be Saint Noel. Your original post, if you don't care to reread it yourself consisted of a short sentence saying to move it, then a long one saying no one gives a fuck about what he is posting about... He did, obviously. That's a great way to get people posting!! Good job! Whether or not you are interested doesn't mean a goddamn thing.
There is less and less tolerance for people being assholes for no good reason around here every week. Say whatever you want, say it is the way things are here, and why VV was started, say whatever you want. The fact of the matter is that people constantly getting bombarded with insults galore about everything and anything by whichever asshole doesn't agree with them is wearing on people, and is why people are leaving, or posting considerably less.

Stop being ridiculous Aranuil and put away the e-peen.
Most people who have posted in this thread want it in general discussion. I myself haven't checked the EQ board in years and would rather not have to click it just for one post. It makes a lot more sense to keep it in a forum that gets traffic by lurkers and posters alike. Especially since we're an EQ based community. If you have a problem with it then don't click on the thread.
Anyway, you have no justification for being a douschebag to Mr. Bacon.

I don't think anyone cares that they post some info about there being a project for EQ emulation. What no one cares about is hearing about 5 retards runnign it arguing that basically no one on this baord knows or cares about. If you want to bitch and moan and go on for days about those clowns, then do it on their boards or in the EQ forums. We have our own drama and don't need some imported fag drama.

The stupidest statement in the world: We are an EQ based community.
We haven't been an EQ-based community AT LEAST 3 years. Sure we all played it at one time, but the remnants of this community are here because of things that have nothing to do with EQ. If we were an EQ-based community, threads about EQ would be the norm and not the exception like they are now. We have subforums for a reason... at least that's what Sylvus keeps telling me. If we're not going to use the subforums then lets go back to a flat forum.
The, the main board gets the most traffic so I post here excuse is fucking retarded. The Tech forum is extremely active with... wait for it... TECHIES. The videogame forum and console forum are active with gamers. All the subforums are active, ON THAT TOPIC. It makes it great for people like me who perhaps don't have a huge interest in say... Web Based Games to ignore the posts and simply read in forums on the topics I want to read on.
Finally, Funk, you're a blight on this community, not it's champion.

Show some respect for the game that brought us all together! Without EQ you'd still be an arrogant prick, Funk would still be a retard, and I'd still be whatever I'm labeled these days, but there would be no VV community. A community named after an EQ server.

Ok Noel, who the hell made you the leader to say this isn't an EQ based forum? This forum was originally founded just for that reason and I'd say most of us are here only because of that. Sure we may not play anymore, but most of us quit because of some of the later expansions that ruined the game. Maybe we would like to know now that there is a chance of playing without having to deal with that? And maybe we don't go to the "Everquest forum" because the "Everquest" today is not the same game AT ALL (past the general MMORPG idea). Everquest for me is and always will be Classic - Velious...MAYBE Luclin because it was enjoyable in parts, and I did have a lot of fun there, but some of the major changes to the game with that expansion ruined it for me. Then when POP came out that killed it. Max level 60, no AA, no req levels on items, no POK or nexus, no bazaar, no instancing...
On a side note, once this gets off the ground and everyone builds up, who is ready to see how long it takes for AOW to die? I know he did pretty quick on progression but a lot of the changes in the game were hard coded and caused him to be easier.
