Is the Population Booming Now?

[SegFault]

Hey all, this is my first day back in the world of Everquest. I played between release and right after Velious came out, so it's been some time. Looking around this forum, it seems like there are a lot of people coming back to play. Is this normal or is there a population boom going on right now?


So, I was thinking about playing an Iksar Shadowknight, Human Monk, or Dark Elf Cleric. Of course, I've only been thinking about this for the past hour since I became aware of this site. I remember that grouping could sometimes be a drag for over-populated classes, is that still true for these three?
