I just started as well. IMO the entire scene (lets say EC for example) does not revolve around new starters. Why should it? I've gotten buffs unasked, I've been handed gear unasked. I'm not looking for some druid to shadow me with sow and thorns, because I want to play the way it was - and from what I've seen so far, blue is spot on.
Even if no one had cast a spell on me, or handed me a piece of bronze, the new player experience is so close to what it was in 2000. Maybe you get a buff, maybe you get a freebie, but mostly you are on your own. Ask a question? Someone answers. When you want something, ask, donate, give. When you have something, offer, sell, donate. This is why I love EQ.

Thanks for the reply. I can emphatically tell you that back in 2000 there were NOT guys twinked 30K ready, waiting, and probably going to KS you or pull your camp, I can also emphatically tell you that back in 2000 there were not bards swarmkiting most of the mobs in a zone where the average mob is 20 levels below them. I know there will be elitists that play, every game has them. I don't doubt that there are both selfish players and considerate players, I'm trying to gauge the balance...acclimating myself to my environment, if you will...and trying to decide if the attempt is worth my time and energy. Thanks again.
