Not to be an over-dramatic purist... again.
But I do hope the base EQ2Emulator will "emulate" live initially as much as possible... and any customization would be done by the individual admins via their configs. Though we all agree SOE broke much of the game in later patches that even I would like to see "fixed" here.

I agree with you 100% John. I want the emulator to be as close to live as possible, I just want it to be customizable enough so that I can do the crazy sorts of things that are going on in my head.
