But depending on the severity and how much the exploit was taken advantage of, you may get a permanent vacation from TAKP.

PATHING is a huge one we have noticed being exploited. With navmesh holding PoP release hostage, if you do not report these types of exploits you harm the community and will likely be gone. Delayed exploit reporting in navmesh...

Due to recent issues we have had to make the unanimous decision to ban a guild leader.

When a guild leader gets banned, the guild DOES NOT get to pick a new leader.
Your current officer make up is it. Your choices are to run the guild as is and hope your officers stick around, or disband and reform. We are not going to micro manage the drama on this server any longer.

You follow a known bad apple you take the risks. This goes for any guild....

2) Both guild account and leadership forum access are privileged. Your guild must not exceed the staff's tolerance for player infractions among the community. Also must limit negative contact from or with the staff. It is up to the staff's discretion to flag a guild as problematic. But such flagging will be discussed among the admins before action is taken.

Reasons for a preservation are many, but specifically that Classic to PoP EverQuest is long dead.

Many if not most of us have played for a major portion of our lives.

Short answer, Yes and No. Long answer, While it will be Time locked and support only the clients that were last seen on AK initially, we will fix a number of issues that existed on AK. We plan to have less bugs overall and more completeness to quests for all expansions. We do plan to support additional PC clients or change the client that is considered official as time goes on.

What clients can play on this server?
