The end game is not as fun as leveling up. If you aren't enjoying leveling up, you will not enjoy the end game IMO. Have fun leveling up, meeting folks, helping people out, etc…that is what the game should be all about.

To each their own.
OP, right now the "end game" is split into, say, 3 factions.
Your hard core raiders (AKA - Class C) - 4 AM batphones, hours of tracking, and required to be ready a moments notice, these are Project 1999's most dedicated raiders. They put hours of time into planning, strategy, and execution, all to get the biggest mobs with the best pixels as often as possible. Because of the way our Classic/Kunark raid content is structured, Class C guilds generally end up getting many more mobs than their Class R counterparts, but sacrifice time, energy, and socks to do so.
Your casual raiders (AKA - Class R) - The majority of raiders fall into this category. Set within their own player managed rotation, Class R enjoys the fight itself as opposed to the challenge of beating your opposition to the punch. With a large window to fight your assigned target, you have plenty of time to set up, get your guild ready, and fight the mob on your terms. Less time and energy, but less targets to go around. Most people fall here simply on the merit that they don't have the time or the desire to go all out P99 like Class C does.
Your non-raiders (AKA - Everyone else, tunnel rats, item farmers) - Content to amass a platinum empire, or simply farm shiny tradeable's with their friends, these players don't care much for the raid scene and aren't concerned with seeing the biggest baddies with the best loot. Many, many people fall into this category - truth be told, there are likely as many or more of these kinds of players than there are raiders. Whether gearing up an alt or just hanging out with friends, this is a popular choice here on Project 1999.
All of these have their own ups and downs, their own disputes, and their own social circles. Everyone is
greatly encouraged to work together when problems arise, and generally speaking this happens most of the time. Whatever path you choose, remember that the only way to lose at Everquest is to not have fun and enjoy what you're doing - beyond that, it's up to you to decide who you want your ever quest to play out (yes, that just happened. Cheese level at maximum, call green grocer).
Hope that helps, welcome (back) to the server, and enjoy!
