That brings back some memories. IIRC, showEQ was used to prove several theories and bugs that Verant/Sony steadfastly denied:

- there were hell levels

- Halflings instead of Humans got the XP bonus (and that there actually WERE race/class XP differences?)

- early Shaman alchemy actually WAS broken

Also wasn't it what lead to eqemulator.org?

iirc, eqemu reverse engineered the server based on the traffic. I remember being impressed.
