Disagree Well, I just found this page yesterday from MMORPG so I would say it IS linked to. --Bill W. Smith, Jr. 18:55, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! I see the problem. Someone redirected EQEmu to EternalQuest. I have restored this page. --Bill W. Smith, Jr. 18:58, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question regarding Morality and Legality

The End User License Agreement of EverQuest has constiguents regarding the modification of the game client (including, but not limited to the configuration files therein). However, this article provides links to a website (or websites) which offer information and files to do just that. This would seem, to me anyway, to fall under providing users with wares and information which is prohibited both by copyright law and the afforementioned agreement.

Is there any form of rationale to provide this information? It could be seen as the same people teaching users to modify their software, seeking to build their communities, by utilizing the castles in the sky method of advertisement. Also, providing said information can be morally wrong, as the use of their modified software (ie: the client) even when written from scratch after reverse engineering is very much similar to stealing it.

If someone could provide some (appropriate) rationale to provide this information, it would be appreciated. -Emhilradim 16:36, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
