This forum displays much more toxicity than I have seem in my limited time playing on green. I really should stop reading these, but it does provide some entertainment. After reading here, I expect to find nothing but craters when I log into game, but I find ... EQ. It's not classic. You simply cannot create the atmosphere of 1999. The sense of mystery and the unknown is gone, and instead you have:
1) People really trying to experience it again with a fresh start
2) Min/Max-ers who aren't playing the game and are instead trying to beat the game
3) Newbies that don't seem to want to learn to play the game and instead want to see what all the fuss is about.

Nothing really toxic from any of these groups in particular. But definitely less groups, more soloing than was perhaps present in 1999. But still, certainly not as toxic (in my experience) as people are in these forums. Once I log in, my fear of toxicity goes away and I play the game.

You are a brave soul. Just wait, most of the toxicity comes not from grouping but when you venture out to do stuff with 1-2 friends or duo, or solo.
