Grinding was never that important to me. In the 4 years I played live, I only just managed to attain level 60 with one character. By then, there were already AAs, and I wasn't too interested. The social aspect of the game and just "walking the Earth" is what I liked (and I stress the word "walking"--all of those teleporters? Ptooey!). Luclin making Norrath seem small just added to the fun I had. It was great to stare at Norrath in the sky from Luclin.
I liked Luclin more than Velious. Velious just seemed like more of the same, and there was just too much ice. Velks, Ring Wars, and Kael were all I really liked about Velious (well, I think I had one good experience in the Tower of Frozen Shadow once...). I think I even liked LDoN more.
