Hello everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself finally, and give you a bit of my background. I've been following EQEmu for quite sometime now. I currently and successfully run a private/local network for EQEmu and also a MaNGOS WoW server, 2 servers for each game 1 Being Live Like(as best as it can) and the other all custom made quests, items, storyline, the works, here in the remote parts of Afghanistan. With about 200 Users total. Why way out here you ask? You may have guessed it, Im a soldier in the US military. I do this to provide the guys with a morale boost, as it gives them a chance to escape their own hell.
Wanted to say, I appreciate what you guys do and did for us way out here. We have a little peice of home on our computer screens every night. I've taken alot of your open source and have modified what I could. Im still learning but this has been a very fun project. I also have a good friend who is a 3D Modeler. I'de love to show what we've come up with so far. But thats up to you guys. Thanks again, Im not much of a poster but I WILL respond to private messages, unless of course Im out on a patrol or the likes. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Apoc

What is your usual online player count and what are you running it on? I'd like to compare to live since you have quite a big player base.
I'm confused, because your IP address says you are in Ohio

Did you just get back or something?
Anyway, I am interested in your server.

Where at in Afghanistan? I was stationed at Asadabad (east of Bagram along Pakistan border) a little while back.

Im actually up in the Nuristan Province, and we are using satelite internet. The ohio thing means the company is probably based there. Not sure though.
As far as my usual player count on any given night i have 75-80 Users on EQEmu and about 120 Users on WoW.
Im running them on a Dell Power Edge 2950.

Good to hear the work we do is helping some people who need the lift-up out

If I did get this right, are you the creator of Mangos wow server?
Well, Im a player, or at least WAS until it crashed, of Mangos! That was kinda great times really.. Now my full expectations are on eq2 emulator.

No, he says he uses MangOS, he did not create it .
So what position do you have? Your job actually sounds really interesting/dangerous. And by editing, do you mean that you've taken the source and re-edited it to your liking? I'd be glad to see your progress so far.
