This server is boring. Everquest used to be tolerable in it's classic form when it had 1000+ people online at any given moment. I would log into everquest just to chat with my online friends. Now I test my patience every time I log in here. How long can I attempt to progress on this server before I realize I'm leveling my umpteenth toon at a snails pace in an empty zone. I can't gather the interest to level up knowing that as soon as I've wasted several days worth of time in getting my character to 50 that I am only looking at more grinding for equipment, so that I can stay on tier with people who are able to dedicate absurd amounts of time to their everquest characters. I feel like this server appeals to a large amount of people and that it rewards a select few who have chosen to ignore their actual responsibilities in favor of playing this game. Furthermore if you have 60ish zones and 100 hell lets even say 200 people you aren't going to see much interaction. How can you fix that? Ensure that everyone playing is interested in the same targets. 1-50 you can use most zones to progress through the game. With travel being so tedious you won't see many people moving out of their own starting zones which makes it that much more desolate. Youll end up with a bunch of people who have the same experience I have had which is to have leveled up alone. If everyone was 50 there would be more interaction and more pvp. There are fewer zones which offer progress at 50 and this will condense the population this making the server seem "fuller" and more active.

That must be the only time I've ever pvp'd in any game ever, and certainly the only time on EQ, right? I must have left due to the zero times I died in pvp, too, right? It had nothing to do with picking up a second job to help pad more into savings during the busy part of the year/holidays, right? It was because I couldn't handle 10000000x experience and cried all over the forums like you guys did?

You're a prime example for MENSA members. Please, continue, oh wise one.

Actually, I've posted about it quite a bit in the past.

Reading is hard, I know. I had that problem when I was 4 years-old too.
