Today I had a friend tell me her 13 year old cousin wanted to install the game and play it. I told him to read the guide. He currently is watching T.V.
It's simply too hard to get people to install the game and start playing it. The allure of EQ will exist to players without any exp bonus.

Didn't you hear bro? It's the experience rate, not that it takes 50 steps to install the game and no one is promoting it anywhere anyway.
It's even more amazing that there isn't a simple install because EverQuest can be "installed" by simply having the EverQuest directory.
Someone just needs to trim down the Titanium client so it only includes classic files, setup the hosts file and delete the .eqg files, patch the UI files, and then write a simple script that follows this logic, "Is there a new EQChanges file? If so, download and extract into directory. Launch eqgame.exe patchme", and then bundle it up into a torrent called Project 1999 Client. This is a folder "Project 1999", which has the script in it and the EverQuest folder.
You download it, open the Project 1999 Folder, click "Start", and now you're ready to play. All you have to do is signup for an account.
