You are never going to have that same feeling back. Sorry to tell you but 17 years of knowing the game and playing it makes that feeling unable to reproduce in its entirety.

I played in 1999 - 2004 or so until WoW came out. Leveling from scratch on p99 when it released in 2009 was a lot of fun when everybody and everything on the server was brand new but it was still nothing like 1999 and it never will be no matter how difficult you make it on yourself. However you can still have more fun the more challenging it is so by all means level non-twinking if you want but you will probably burn out regardless. My first char on p99 was a necro and I made it to lvl 60 with him. I have 5 other alts and none of them have made it past lvl 40 without getting burnt out on playing them twinked or not.
Tbh the most fun you can possibly have on this server is when it was brand new. This is why I think the idea of the green server or the new server they were talking about sounds awesome. Its kind of like the same deal with diablo 2 and the reason they have ladder resets. After a while shit just gets stale and people lose interest. The only thing that brings anybody back is the fresh start on ladder resets and knowing everybody is back to square one and on an even playing field. Without the resets diablo 2 would be completely dead. With the resets at least there are some people playing for about the first 2 months after each reset. Fortunately this server is still very healthy population wise and it's not really a problem yet and there is still much fun to be had, not to mention so many people who come to play here who did not experience classic everquest. However, eventually it will become stale even if its not for several more years
