This EQ sever is....?

So... I recently attended the midnight release of Starcraft 2 and while there met an individual who spoke a great deal about Everquest while we were on the topic of MMOs and his discription of what classic ever quest was like is so mind-bogglingly different from mainstream MMOs like WoW that I was amazed and sad I missed out on a great era of gaming. Then I youtub'd Classic Everquest just to get a look at what it used to be like. There was a related video that led me to finding this site.

NOW from what I understand in this "classic everquest" server:

You are (severally) penalized for dieing,
Zones are expansive
Boat rides take time
Is not easy brainless button mashing ( at least not like 1 1 1 he's dead 1 1 1 he's dead 1 1 1 he's dead 1 1 1 he's dead 1 1 1 he's dead(and all that within 90 seconds))
If you die finding your body could be difficult.

Or at least something like the above. I'm looking for a more challenging MMO. Is that what everquest is like? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Hope so cause I'll be a happy leveling maniac if it is.

Any insite would be highly appreciated. ^_^
