I have been longing for an old school MMO. I tried getting into EQ99, but after logging in for awhile. I remembered why I left, the old EQ was way to much of a grind and "hardcore" for me. I have fond memories of playing Horizions and Istaria. I know its grindy, but it was fun.

How is the population these days? I think if I start I'll be starting a new character. I gave all of my stuff to a new player when I left. I miss the crafting, hunting and working on my plot in Harro. Are there a lot of 'New' players?
