No you didn't. No casual guild had sever-first anything, even if they somehow cleared the content. Sorry to call you out directly, but I raided seriously through BC/WotLK in a server-first guild, and casuals are nowhere near the same level. That one facet is exactly like EQ.
Also, as for WoW being "easymode", Faction Champs from 10-man normal ToC is harder than any content in Classic EQ, and Heroic Putricide 25 is harder than any content ever released for Everquest. Those two fights are from arguably the "easiest" WoW expansion to date. Firefighter makes them both look like cakewalks, assuming proper gear level, but it's from the best raid content ever produced in any game (IMO), so I thought that would be an unfair comparison. Should I bring up the nightmare that was M'uru?
Basically, the "difficulty pyramid" is inverted for WoW. Leveling/group content is a joke and top-end raiding is hard in WoW. In EQ, leveling/grouping is the hard part, and top-end raiding is a matter of showing up at the right place at the right time and getting FTE.
Both games are awesome in very different ways.

One of my favorite thing about EverQuest is that you can be agnostic in a world in which you literally get to meet/kill the gods themselves. Always cracked me up.
Edit: OP, if you're interested in some of the really cool, really hard stuff in EQ, check out the Solo Challenge Thread! The guys in there are really good players, and there are some terrific encounter write-ups.
