EQN = blank slate where players will decide what the game is like!
EQN = a hanger which metaphorically speaking will allow people to hang all types of coats onto!
EQN = just like the picture that was here has now been scrapped and we're starting over!
EQN = after seeing what people are speculating we've realized that the MMO player base will never be pleased with anything so we give up and are shutting down. Picture will be on ebay after tomorrow's announcement!
EQN = A beacon of light in the darkness and is the savior of MMOs!
EQN = a board game! The future is tabletop suckas. #dealwithit
EQN = someone vandalized our lobby, and that's not cool. You know who you are, turn yourself in.
EQN = has relocated a bunch of their stuff because they're getting ready to reveal EQN!
Their cleaning firm, together with NACSA - North American Cleaning & Sanitation Agency, is currently on a strike which resulted in a temporary cleaning solution. Due to lack of space, essentially the EQNext team had to move down two floors effective immediately. Naturally, they couldn't just leave their favorite painting behind. No fear though, they'll get back their floor in a week or two, or so they've been told anyhow..
As for the actual meaning of the tweet, there is none. It's entire reason is to spook with all of the fans who are closely watching their countdown timers to the reveal.
In the beginning of EQN Black Box teaser video you can see what looks like the same wall with the bottom of a poster showing. I can't make out the writing on the poster, so I have no idea if it's relevant or not.

So here's my take: they have taken down the scripted madness from EQ1 & EQ2 and they are leaving a blank slate for players to create their own masterpiece. Gone are the days where someone paints a picture for us. Live on open world PvP.
Perhaps it's a nod to people being able to change the art-style of the game? (Like how in EQ2 you could choose to use the anime-style character models).
So perhaps EQ2 is going to have both a "Cartoony" graphical setting, that will be more welcoming to people with older computers. Then perhaps it will have a more realistic style that pushes the graphics harder for people that want that style.

playing an MMORPG?"
It's relevant because they need to make room for the new EQ Next game poster. I think it signifies that they are about to let the world in on the game details now.

zomg, they threw the painting in the garbage based on all the feedback and have designed EQN to look normally instead of that cartoony s**t!
or more likely - painting will be given away at SOE Live.

After the outrage from the "Artwork" they burned it in a sacrificial ceremony. The ashes will be presented for fans to pee on at SOE Live.
Just speculation of course..... c:
I lol'ed
Seriously, I think its because the painting will be given away at SOE Live...
I love the ideas! I am laughing @ some of the humorous ones too!
All I know is that SOE must have some sick type of inside promotion on who can tweet the most twistedly teasing message.

I'll flip my desk at work, breaking four monitors in the process, if it looks anything like WildStar, WoW, or EQ2.
Seriously, i've had enough of that "Stylized" nonsense :I
Pretty sure this is where a sketch, art, or world map was previously.
They are indeed saying a few things with this.
We are leaving for Vegas to start the set up and party time.
We are going to give away whatever was on this wall to a lucky SOE convention goer.
This new world we created will allow players to forge their own path in a sandbox style with factions and pvp elements and no instances.
It says "Untold Legends" which is another SOE published game. Nothing to do with the EQ franchise.
Looks like their is something in the middle of the board, but no way in hell you could read it, or see what it is.
This, I hope.
