The server was up for many years, and it was overall pretty good except for the last year or so. The biggest problem is how top-heavy the game became (ie everyone is high RR), but that's inevitable without a constant influx of new players. Anyone really interested in starting on DAOC should get on board as early in the life of the server as possible.
Also, there was no shrouded isles (the first expansion and the only one widely loved) which should be there when the server opens again, as well as things like bolts and bonedancer pets (both of which were broken). The admins also began messing around with custom content such as things from ToA despite the server not even having any expansion content, and they claim to have learned their lesson about that..so..nothing to do but wait and see
One thing you may want to have clarified as a ranger is the no-invis rule. I played a few years ago, and at that time there were certain hours when stealthers weren't allowed, so as to not harm RvR (ie making it so the entire server didn't devolve into non-visi vs non-visi)
