Bought Everquest classic for myself as a coping gift back in February 2000. I broke up with my then-high school sweetheart, and the game sucked me right in. I had a few friends who had been playing since beta/launch and I made a wood elf druid (Innere Nacht) on Fennin Ro. Soon after, I think Fennin and Solusek merged into Druzzil Ro. I remember struggling just to get leather armor back then, and what a pain it was to get (or make) a bow and arrows.
I played off and on, splitting my time between EQ and Dark Age of Camelot before WoW came out. Had a 70 Necromancer, 65 Druid, and countless 50's and 40's by the time I quit. I still think classic, Kunark, and Velious were my favorite eras.
