I wonder if the localised servers are really missed at all (or if the English broker information would be helpful for them). RE and Splitpaw are different as they are running the same content in the same language as the US servers but are populated more by folks living in GMT
Friday, and still no sign of the non US server brokers. Just be honest with us you guys, you have no intention of causing waves with SOE to try and get this sorted have you? Either that or you've been told it ain't going to happen and you haven't got the balls to come right out and tell us. Honesty that's all we want.

Against my better judgement I took a look at the data on Zam. Was there a concious effort to not include useful data? Sure looks like it. Why can I not search by effect? The information displayed has no apparent value.
Actually, I believe that lootdb.com does have drop rates, but it's only available to registered players. How close those values are to the "actual" drop rates, can't really say but it would certainly be enough to give players an idea as long as the sample is large enough.

Two weeks in and still no sign of support for EU broker data. All we get from Calthine and Spyder is "we've submitted a ticket". Well I would have expected a trading partner to have had a little more of a direct line into SOE than CS tickets. There has always been this tendency by SOE to treat the non US servers as the red headed step children of the game, no access to competitions, game updates (at least) 24 hours after US servers, server maintenance at peak times, etc, etc, while still charging exactly the same subscription. Their sublime arrogance then extends into an attitude of "don't dare criticise us over this". Seems like this attitude is now spreading to Zam. No I am not subscribed to the Zam network, but you know what? Neither am I ever likely to be until the game servers I play on are treated with equality.
Actually, the answer on broker issues is "We're working with SOE on it." Don't need a ticket on it, we know it's not there I did enquire today, and I don't have any new information. Enhancements and bugs, those get tickets. I can tell you our broker system is getting it's own server, a work in progress right now. No, that doesn't do a thing for missing EU data, I know.

Holymoly@Runnyeye wrote: I apologize for that miscommunicaton. I am not part of the ticketing process so when I was told it was being worked on, I assumed it was something that required a ticket. But, the same applies.. it is being worked on and everyone will be notified with any new info that we receive.
I like the way it looks. It feels much easier on my tired eyes. There is one aspect that I find uncomfortable, and real irritating though. Why is page up, page down, home, end, up arrow, down arrow disabled? I dislike having to constantly grab at the scrollbar.

To address your last question: we can't publish it because we don't have it. But posted today on our EQ2 Zam forums, by Illia, our Director of Technology (and yes, that's Illia of Illia's Everquest Bestiary):
