Why do you all still play???

I've been playing MMOs since 97.
I love MMOs and everything about them, my main love in mir was the "no level cap" and the world PvP that game offered. Fighting for bosses, no instances it was great. The partial drop system was amazing too. It gave a reason to PvP and PK and made it exciting. I remember the first time PKing in mir and my hand shaking all over the place. It was a great feeling and not something I've ever recaptured.
The fact it was a small community made players becoming notorious. I liked this, I loved the PMs I got back when I played it was cool. Still to this day in RIFT etc I get people PMing me saying did I play Mir etc.
Since Mir I've been trying to find a game I like, I stick with a MMO for several months and then move on. I PvP for the sake of it. Without being able to talk to who you're killing they're basically a supped up AI when you think about it. Mir you had a reason to fight, for bosses for power. A small group could take on many with skill etc and a low level skillful player could beat a much higher less skilled player.
Several times I have tried making a mir server. I can't code, I just can have great ideas and made some really cool maps for the game. However the time I invested put my relationship at risk, then time needed on my own meant I could only sort the server not play any other game out.
What point is there in creating a server? There are so many out there with ones like 4H who have the means to do what they want which would make my server look amateurish.
No one wants to work for anything these days, people want numerous quests, things to keep them in game. Mir Euro didn't have non of this **** yet we still played.
In my opinion most people have moved on but have a love for mir yet keep trying to re kindle it. For the rest of my life I'll never find a game I loved as much as MIR, the curse it has left me with is getting bored after 2-8 weeks of any MMO I play.

im using your files and currently redoing all my scripts etc making the server hopefully better than before. and i know you are still developing them which is great. but im waiting to put them up as i want the fox cave mobs working first as i have various quest related to that area and so forth.
Sorry I've been out the loop a while. So you're saying your files are all fine and 100% easy to use? Are they compiled or? Sorry been away from Mir 2 dev for a while now.
they are closed source files. they are easy to use and all the updates are done by andreas and then released to the forums
Sweet, still using MySQL? I like the idea of this... Looks like I may dust of my old server gloves so to speak

nope runs off access which i think is better
To be honest I'm not sure on that yet. I guess if I have the option of both I can just import certain things from one to another.
2.6 files - You get a fourth hero plus the TD commands. Same useage as 2.3 files.
Heroes - Extra stats, three heroes. Same useage as 1.9 files.
Both have their benefits.

I love Mir cause of how you make a name for urself - each server you change to or even from euro people still remember names cause of specific times they got owned, owned people etc :P also love the arguements that come out of no where in mir - one moment peaceful sz like "so ye we goin to dd or what??" then someone else is like "!YE LMAO U GOT OWNED HAHAHA" and "shut up u pr*ck i lagged" then all the shiz starts coming out n its funny to watch ^^

hero files are gd to use but gotta be careful with em as they can create such an overbalance on game --- The_Legends WorldOfheros.
(got people running around 1 hit killin players at least 20lvls higher then them, or 1 or 2 lvls below them,
upgrade items with ac,amc,etc etc etc via % on items, eg, magical defense 100% means a wizz with 400+mc cannot met strike u and hit u at all,
you can stand there and laugh.
Cheats can also be used with these files -- i been told theres a program but dunno what name is or what its used for!!
2.6 -- never been a real fan of 2.6 can honestly say never gave it a real go -- FourHero's
(started server ages ago, lvled to lvl 60 pked everywhere i went by sumone 30+ higher lvl then me)
would give fourheros another bash but .... start lvl is that high now u get kit and skills when u log on so im told, what else part from items u gotta find?
2.3 always my best set of files, easy to compile, easy to configure.
(problem with these is cuz they are quick and simple ppl dont take time to actually make the server.
money is on the mind more then the balance of the server.
1.9 awsome set of files -- the best stage of mir i think.
(too old and outdated) mir 1.9 has died and i ask anyone not to ruin the 1.9 stage by creating a 1.9 server and fail).
im currently undecided which version of a server to make.
i had a 2.3 in the making but lost contact with my team, now they doin there own thing.
Which would peeps recommend????
