Korona Reborn L2 and DrunkenL2

Well, I still have people insisting I open my old server to them, and wanting to know why I haven't. So far I don't have nearly enough RAM to run the server properly. I have 512MB with on-board shared video that can take up to 256MB of the RAM for itself; nowhere near enough needed to run the latest server files. On top of that, I still haven't had any luck finding any work. For a server of this nature, I should have preferably 2GB of RAM, plus a dedicated video card of at least 128MB. I can start and run the server (barely), but it takes 2 hours to start, and I can't run ANYTHING else when I do. How am I supposed to do any decent bug fixes when it takes 2 hours to start every time I need to shut it down to implement a fix? >_< If you people really want me to open my server, then you can bloody well buy me the frikkin hardware. Otherwise, Just go play on DL2 and I'll tell YOU when Korona is up. In, like, 2 years most likely.
As for DrunkenL2, Things are going not too bad there, but they could be a hell of a lot smoother. The oldschool clan was finally banned, every last one of them. Good riddance. They've caused more problems than they were worth right from the day they got to DL2. Homero is doing his usual kick-ass job on getting the Kamael software working on the test server, and all the staff is bending over backwards to help with the testing. The custom Elpy Event that I created and Homero wrote the code for ended up being a disaster last October, because I wasn't able to test anything very well due to real life getting in the way, and DrunkenDave & Beowolf went ahead and threw it on there anyways; not only did the Elpies not work properly, they were placed in the wrong places, well out of the way of players. And yet Those guys have left them up for the last few months... O.o... More often than I'd like, those guys don't make any sense to me. So I'm going to recommend that all the custom Elpies and the Rakoln NPC be removed from the server, and do some re-writing of them myself as well as recommend a new event idea I came up with. Once the Kamael changes are working, I'll submit the new Elpy event format changes.
