On Red currently I can port to every Velious zone, run to KC, run through kael etc, and not find a single person. Simply because there is almost no reason other than simple enjoyment of the game for anyone to be doing things in external zones, everyone already has a stockpile of 4 twinks worth of gear and is getting no drop items that are better than anything they can self farm.

People tend to have rose-tinted glasses for games from their past. Velious was the beginning of the end for EverQuest greatness - it made 90% of old content and itemization obsolete and trivial, while relegated everyone to 60-man zerg raids and faction grinds (how fun!!).
On SZ, PVP effectively ceased after the release of Velious. PVP imbalances from Kunark were only exacerbated.
