    um, you guys are off by like an order of magnitude. no doubt there are always some people who don't check their CCs and notice they are being billed for things that they should of cancelled years ago. It happens, hell there are even apps now designed to help you catch these forgotten...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    the fitness model is based on guilt, people want to get in shape, lose weight, etc. The multi-year commitment gym contracts are sold that way, initially as motivation for you to keep showing up, since you're all pumped up initially you agree to it. When you stop going it's the guilt that keeps...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    Yeah that one is on me, my bad. I looked at the chart and saw Quarter, didn't see YTD. since i saw september I figured it couldn't possibly be annual, I forgot that they are not an american company and don't use Fiscal Years for some reason, but calendar year? fucking weird. So i divided...

    First or all, again you are quoting the mau slide not the sub slide. I'm not sure why you think this is a gotcha, you are looking at the wrong slide. I see I hit a nerve, confirming you are in fact a daybreak employee, lol. :emoji_fork_knife_plate::emoji_poop::emoji_coffin::emoji_gay_pride_flag:. And no, I said they only have like 4k active...

    THJ is successful because it turned EQ into WoW...actually went way beyond even WoW, it made not just the leveling, but all group, dungeon, boss and raid content solo content. The people who still pay DB to play everquest absolutely despise WoW and wouldn't even play THJ out of spite. WoW...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    Yeah this is where you are missing the point. "I want to play EQ, but i have no money" those types are playing on any of the dozens of EQ classic style emulators designed to recreate one of the multitude of versions of EQ from yesteryear, from P99 through any of a dozen other iterations. There...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    That's not the slide I was talking about. That is Monthly average users, and according to that slide, EQ has less than 100k (around 90k?), not 100-200k. I don't believe that for a second, personally, and I hope this lawsuit reveals the real figures. I don't know, maybe they are bringing in...

    WoW Ascension (Classless Realm)

    so powered through to outlands as storm giant....i'm not sure if all featured builds are like this, but it reminded me mostly of SW:TOR, in that the entire class via the mythic enchants, is built around a couple of synergies where skill A triggers the next use of skill B to instacast and skill B...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    yes thank you, I went to the eq emu site myself since I couldn't see the screenshot on my phone. I see that at 0830 in the morning the day after a holiday of beer, bbq, and fireworks, that THJ, a locked server under threat of shutting down due to lawsuit, has 2380 players, more players than...

    What is that, a screenshot for ants? Seriously can't read it. I'll try and find the source. Oh and "leaked data"? Yeah right. I'll believe the enads investor data over some bullshit numbers like that. You're telling me every single eq subscriber logged into both tlps and mischief? Oh...

    Last I played and last I saw it had over 4k peak daily players not sure where you are getting this 1800 from? I mean if you are averaging that 3am-6am time slots in when its nothing but traders afk sure. I don't know how many total players tried it but I'd wager its well above 50k since they...

    beyond anecdotal evidence I doubt very much that they've lost any money at all to THJ, certainly not in any amount that could be proven. In fact it would be easier to argue the opposite, that bringing in tens of thousands of former eq players and giving them an accessible, solo version of the...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    I understand that they are pretty much guranteed to win on copyright infringement that isn't really up for debate. however you fundamentally misunderstand THJ if you think 1/4 of them were regular TLP players. If Daybreak was a company that made skateboards, and a bunch of people who used to...
