And I constantly complain to my real-life friends that it annoys me when they force me to play WoW classic with them because there's literally no down time and I never get out of my chair. Like I can't just log on WoW classic and do something without one of them inviting themselves to my group and then dragging me along from pointless quest to pointless quest for hours on end. On EQ I can log on, set up a camp, kill something, pace around my room doing pull-ups and pushups, kill something, pace around my room doing pull-ups and pushups.. no other game is really like this. Even when I play a Cleric, if I have a good group I can kind of be doing pullups 10 feet away and still have plenty of time to respond if something bad happens.

Also EverQuest kind of cured my alcoholism, which has done wonders my diet. One of my favorite things in the world to do is to get drunk AF and play WoW Arenas... that doesn't work with EQ.. EQ requires a lot of focus and stamina to play comparatively... although I did get drunk to get through 45 both times on P99 Green...

If you are sitting at a one mob spawn and waiting 6 minutes between that one spawn are you really even playing the game?

I mean, how many players do you see doing this to guards and spectres 24/7 on all 3 p99 servers? The answer is dozens.

I couldn't find a group on Red or Blue if I actually tried.. trust me, I didn't make a Cleric on Blue because I thought it would be fun to solo all the way to level 50.. I would have picked literally any other class if I knew that would be the case

not to mention the actual camp camps... like Guk... where people fight over spawns that are on a 28 minute timer

this is nothing new... i was even doing this 20 years ago because down time in this game is huge and even when it isnt... you can take the time to do 10 pull ups or 50 pushups without really missing a beat

Or this may happen

But seriously. Anyone who plays 18 hours a day. Would they even have the muscle tone to even knock out rotting teeth, let alone good teeth?
