I left around the same time (2002?), I think I had about 45 at best, but I was a lazy bastard. Grinding that much in HoH largely contributed to my annoyance and departure.
And Jayrebb, it's an example applying to AA's. The precursor to which was "Restructuring the Old-World". I really dont have the time or wont to type up 70 pages, so I thought that might be a understandable example. Clearly, I was wrong.
Making EQ1 a desireable game despite being from the first generation is a task I seriously doubt they'd ever consider cost-effective. They'd probably throw a ton of cliche jargon around like, "We're looking forward, not backwards." In any event, they have a recognizable license second only to WoW in the MMO community, and how they continually fail at properly using it is mind-boggling. The first step needs to be catching players up to date, without overwhelming them. Hence the example given.
