What don't you like as far as administration is concerned?  I'm always open to user feedback.

Regarding QFE:  Are you telling me that this is an MMO where something actually happens?  That would be quite revolutionary and would probably draw my interest right off.
As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

If I understand your question correctly (that is, if you meant "Is it an MMO where something more happens besides "grind, wash, rinse, repeat"), then I can't say that I know what exactly it's going to be like in the game simply because it hasn't come out yet, and the gameplay aspect can't be worked on until the game's engine itself is complete (which at it's current state, seems like it's almost there. If you're interested, there are dozens of pages of technical journals written by the lead developer about his engine, how he's developing it, and tons of other computer jargon that I don't understand, but you might :P)

Anyway, to continue hijacking this thread, I can say that the fact that the community has a significant influence in the way the game will be developed, I can speculate that, yes, it will probably be an MMO where something actually happens. Be it story-driven or players/faction driven, there will be plenty for any one player to do. I'd like to spend more time talking about what is being developed to help facilitate this process (for example, an economy prototype to lay the foundation for an ACTUAL economy where prices change, supply and demand are taken into effect, etc), but I don't want to ramble....or continue hijacking this thread. lol


Also, regarding Gnight's concern, he may be referring to the lack of any administrative figures in the server currently. Although, that's only a relatively recent issue, in which case I have no idea what the problem was in the past.

Basically the same thing what I've been saying over 6 years ago:  I don't like your decisions on who's PK/admin.

It's hard for me to pick them any more reliably.  I haven't played since the early 2000s, so I don't have a trenches view of who's the best choice.  I have to go on what I hear.

Speaking of MMO's, Infinity: The Quest for Earth is still going strong. There's a good possibility of an alpha version being released this year for a select number of players.

BS Koro.  That dude's been saying that for YEARS... YEAAARRRSSSSSSS!
(like... more than 4)

As for LoL, which I mentioned in the first reply, I still play it as often as I can and no other particular games.
It's still completely free, with the option to spend money to get things sooner than by playing more matches, and doesn't suck malarkey like DotA.
hell... since I didn't put the link in the first reply, here's a link to the game:

Don't know where you got that from, but we (as a community) specifically make the effort to dispel the idea that "hes been saying it for years", because if you look back at all of his logs, all of the dev journals, and all of the posts he (and we) have been making in response to this claim, you'll find that there was never a time in the past when we've given an estimated time frame. The official release date given is "when its done". He only recently began speculating on the possibility of an Alpha by the end of the year.

Just wanted to clear that up :)

Team Fortress 2, WoW, check out Kongregate now and then...  whatever I can snag on the cheap off of Steam (got Torchlight recently, it's pretty nifty).

Minecraft is coming along quite nicely, and I anticipate it to be an awesome game when it hits beta (because it's already pretty awesome as an alpha).  I'll totally whore that game out too:

They're dropping multiplayer support for non payers soon.  You'll have to purchase the game and have a static account to continue.  Reason, because of trolls.  :D

It was pretty funny though. I'd pay money to troll that game. I had a good time. :}

Please do, it'll help support the development costs.
