I think vanilla warcraft was a great game. I wish someone would make a PvE server that was just classic. Well, maybe to burning crusade. The mage class is my favorite mmo class ever.

I think when people say EQ was harder they usually mean the world is harsher and less forgiving, not that the gameplay is more difficult.

You are probably right about that.

Vanilla servers are out there..

Emerald Dream
Valkyrie
Rebirth

i recall seeing a youtbe video of a guy doing work on a BC era private server. he compared a typical private server to live, then compared his work to live. his was much closer.

typical private servers just pepper merbs through dungeons and 'get close.' this particular one had all the patrols, ever mob was the correct type, boss encounters scripted properly. whole 9 yards.
