For my part I'm not annoyed by Lion's WAR topics, except mostly nobody can help him here
But like Dinberg say it should be in an "Off Topic" Area of the forum, this is a bit related to DOL because draft WAR Emulator re-use a lot of DOL PacketLib Code (and other parts) and for me this is the purpose of open-sourced software
And I'm always curious to see similar behavior between WAR and DAOC Servers (even if I don't want to spend time working on WAR...), that reminds me when I tried WAR in Open Beta and I could witness similar "bug" between DAOC and WAR server
In fact this is maybe the number one reason that made me run away from WAR even before Game Release, I couldn't bear to go with "Mythic" on a new game with bugs lasting years "again" ! (And Today's Live DAOC still have a lot of tiny bugs that even DOL fixed years ago... It really lacks some code "polish" !)
