the server, loot and the way things are

There is much more to EQ than the grind, the gearing, the farming and even the raiding. When you're ready to think outside the box, that's when the game starts to get really interesting.

The idea of gear making you a better player than another, is quite silly.

My thoughts exactly.



Personally I prefer leveling new characters. It's a great way for me to learn about the classes that I had no experience with on live. Rogue and Wizard for example I always avoided because I felt that they were so limited in their utility, but I am really starting to enjoy the little tricks and quirks that I never experienced before.

I basically avoid buying and farming gear completely now which gives me more time to level up characters. This will give me more options for groups as well as soloing once Kunark is released. While the people that were so busy trying to get the very best gear now will just have to start the process all over again in a few months... That doesn't sound like much fun to me.

But hey, everyone has their own opinions. There's something in the game for everyone:
Some people enjoy taking on real challenging content while other people prefer racing others to raid targets.
Some people want lots of alts, some people want lots of platinum.
What ever floats your boat.

Ditto, right on the money. Those with an open mind, will (almost) always see more than one angle.
