In theory? I actually played there as did many others and it was wildly successful. The most popular zek before or since. You?
If it was wildly successful it would have needed multiple servers to keep up with the demand of people who wanted that ruleset.

I played there as a Neut Druid and it underwhelmed me. The good team was mostly irrelevant and the evil team quickly locked down the most important game areas. Everything felt like an effort to just nuisance the evil team rather than a real back-and-forth war between opposing factions.

And that's the thing. If you start changing this and that and going crazy with every little thing in an effort to force team balance that you will never get, you are going to turn people off to the idea of playing there.
It's not "going crazy with every little thing", it's making the concept workable. Either way, the two things people care about most with regards to Classic Everquest are the game world itself and the adventure.

It's funny, you're the one who is actually going crazy about every little thing. You think Classic Everquest as it used to exist can't be improved upon, which is ignorant. Don't mix up bad changes to the game with positive changes. You can't just say "because other EQ Emu's mod their game so that it's far easier, this shows how any mods to the exact Classic EQ code never work".
