When was your first experience with Everquest?

I never even heard of it, but my friend somehow found out about it and started playing it. Then he told me to get it, and I joined. It was 1999 and I think the game had been out for around a month or so. So I was there pretty much from the start. It turned out to be the best gaming experience I have ever had.

I enjoyed it up until Luclin and then my interest started waning. Then PoP came along and I hated how uber guild focused it had become and how even though I paid for the expansion, I couldn't even see most of it unless I started getting flagged for this and flagged for that, etc.. Most of which just wasn't even possible for my nice little family style guild. I quit and never returned.
