I don't think it's so much the higher end scene because most casuals have no real desire to sit and poop-sock mobs and be told where to camp. As the OP said, everyone defines their own fun and has their own goals. When I first started on live, I made 5 different rangers and explored all the cities- and loved it!
I think this server has attracted a lot of 20 somethings who are in school and have the time to take a more hardcore approach to the game. I feel because we attract such a small percentage of all EQ players, by default, we will get a more hardcore demographic. Again, as another poster said, there are other projects being developed that have a bit more of a casual community following. I know for fact many of their members are interested more in lore, adventuring, and socializing more than raiding and looting.
On a final note it is somewhat discouraging starting out "classic" with tarnished bastards sword while you have a level 10 rogue with a ragebringer in your group.
