It is actually quite popular, their forum has like 5k users more than P99 currently has. I think the raid size there (limited to 18 players) is optimal for Emu Communities and it doesn't require the huge population an EQ server needs to be interesting.
You don't need to throw 30 to 40 people at content, like it is required from Velious onwards on a regular EQ server.
There are a lot of other nice things about the server. A lot of the content is completely different with different mobs and interesting lore(for example, Guk connects to Lower Guk connects to Sebilis, etc.), the raid encounters are actually challenging (and very well tuned to the raid size), progression is very interesting and theres butt loads of content, be it 18 man, 6 man, or whatever else.
Its definitely worth a shot if you haven't checked it out.
