Let's keep this going.
As to why Kirban/Speedd was so effective on SZ, the guy always had levels + gear advantage on most newts and goods. He MQ'd obviously for a bit, him and his buddy Kronar (SEQ), and he was a pro ghoster on Speedd. It wasn't his in game skills that griefed. Why is it surprising he got his ass kicked while leveling up?

Not sure it's a good idea, BUT.. it might make for good drama so here goes.
Most people were max level so that didn't really matter much. Gear and having the rare nukes certainly did, with Manaburn and Nexus gate made it easy mode for sure. Was already good pre-mq but after being constantly tracked down by the newt wizards like Grunter & Immorality I decided to even the playing field and got it myself.
And again on the bard with Gear/Selos/DA/Fading memories made it a lot easlier. if I ever got killed I could rezbox/cr and if I REALLY got into trouble then I could call in as many re-enforcements as needed. Thou the "ghosting" was actually an issue with my meh comp and bad ISP. I'd load into a zone, wouldn't see anyone take off running and then I'd see people start to pop into my view.
But, the main thing that made the most difference is being able to have playtime of 18hrs a day 7days a week coupled with the hunger to constantly grief. I literally had no life outside of EQ...
Now, regrets? Sure.. wasted so much time then, and continue to waste more now. I'm an admitted addict, but guessing anyone on these boards can probably say the same. I do feel bad for a lot of the other people who's time I wasted. I was so busy trying to "win" that I didn't take into consideration the people's feelings on the other side of the screen.
Kirb.
