On the forums page, on the right side they added statistics for unique 3, 2 & single boxers online. This is awesome! I've been in the emu scene for a long time and it's almost unseen that a server will be this transparent with it's community. I applaud TAKP for adding this! Honesty is the best policy, a lot of other servers would be scared to share this info. I'd also like to note if you hover over each line of stats it will gives you some info what it is. To me this just further proves that TAKP is one of the best EverQuest servers available. Thank you to the staff and volunteers who make TAKP the best! If this was already discussed apologies I just saw this feature.
Some servers rely upon that big flashy number to attract players. Believe it or not there are people who will play a lesser server just because it has a higher population number. Just to be clear, TAKP is a top notch server with active devs who care.
When TAKP's db/code/etc is released a year after PoP's release, you can make your own spinoffs with the rulesets you'd like. Until then, there's no deviation from Akkurate rules.
I wish! I can imagine once a year PoP is released and the server is open source, a lot of those rules that were changed for 'progression' will be rolled back to their Akkurate versions, so we have a permanent preservation of EQ for Mac, such as shakerpaging, oor exp bonus, etc. At least, one can hope. The code exists for the rule, it's as simple as enabling or disabling a rule on the server.
