population is actually ideal. 3box limit keeps things sane without boxing your ears. it's far, far more classic. by far the best emu : )
You know an easy way to "weed out the chaff"? Play on your own private server, and then you can box a whole raid! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Personally though I'm a fan of the "aesthetic decisions" made about the original EQ game, and that game was about players on one account each working together to achieve things, not one player manically ALT+TAB-ing between account.

Boxing EverQuest is a different game, plain and simple. It's not the game most of us played on live, but there's also nothing wrong with it: it's great that Takp lets people play that game.

However, for most people here playing the single-account game that we played on live years ago matters more for embracing our nostalgia than a hundred "light blue mobs now con green" fixes ... even people like me who boxed on live.

Personally I just wish there was a server with P99's quality and single-account focus, but that let everyone play other classic (in the English sense of the word, not the P99-sense) EverQuest expansions like Luclin and PoP.
