So far it has been pretty fun. But too many people are super like "let's get in a group and just go absolutely wild" and then people die.

I was attracted to Everquest because I thought it was a slow paced game, where leveling up, you do it really carefully and considerately.

70% of people I meet are nuts and just jump in regardless if anyone is ready. And the thing I saw about Bards being weird is true!

Will anyone play with me that is real chill with nice easy slow pulls?

At low levels there is often very little penalty for death in EQ, and at this point 4/5 new characters you will meet have been twinked at least to some degree. This adds up to people going hog wild at low levels, it will slow down a lot once you must travel farther/into more dangerous places. Many players try to blast through the early levels to get to about 20ish when classes start to gain better skills.

There will be a time in the future (about level 30) when you will wish you could steamroll mobs again like this so enjoy it now. Use this experience as practice to handle big pulls because even when you are going slow and deliberately, accidents can and will happen.
