According to my Station account, I started on 9/11/01.

Someone I'd met at a job I'd just started found out I was above average with computers, and asked if I was into EQ. I was all "Wtf?" and he's like "EverQuest." I inquired further and when he got to the part about the basic game being $10 and the first month free, I figured I'd try it. I floundered around with a couple characters until finally settling on a HIE WIZ that I achingly got to 12 and then quit. Then three more chars went by, all with whom I'd gotten to 21 and then deleted out of boredom.

I quit in 2002, came back a few months later. Quit in 6/04, came back in 6/05. Now things are going better, and I finally got past 65 with someone after countless alts.
Of course now that char is on the shelf in favour of an alt, while I try to get alt's epic.

Just because everyone else is giving their history:

I started at the end of phase 2 beta (on someone else's account.. shhh)He came into a store I was managing, and we were talking about an upcoming game I wanted to try called EQ, and mentioned that he was testing it. Think it was summer of 98?
Got my own CD for phase 3 shortly later.

Started in June 2001. Started a High Elf Mage, Onturii, and after figuring out I needed to go see my guildmaster to get whatever he gave out, I fell in the Felwithe fishin pond. No idea how to swim, I ran around frantically looking for the manual to figure out how. Drowned, got soo mad....quit the character at level 14 and started a warrior, quit that at 11, started a wiz...still play him today at 70.

Started in June, 2000. First character I tried was a Half Elf Ranger. Got him lost and killed in the caves of Surefall and abandoned him after a day or so.

Next character was an Erudite Cleric. Got him up to around level 8 and lost his corpse to a shark in the harbour of Erud. Combined with the very poor hunting, at that time, in Toxx forest, I eventually abandoned the character.

Played a human Monk, and dwarven Paladin (I still have both in the low 50's) before settling on a halfling druid which I play more than any other.

Started in April 1999.
Made a Elf Ranger on Tarew marr and switched to Mith Marr. Played there until The Nameless came online and have been playing ever since. I remember my first character was a Dwf Warrior. Thought that a Mino Battle Axe for 15p was an awesome weapon. One Problem--the BBM was not the place to make money.

Guess I'll throw some of my historey in here. My wife started trying to get me to play soon after we married in
september 2000. But, since I'm a very poor typist, as anyone who has tried to read any of my posts can tell, I refused to even try it. She sort of forced my hand by buying me the game and getting an account in my name for Valentine's 2001. Created my first character as Halfling Druid - he was born in the cave in Rivervale and although he was supposed to be able to see in the dark, my gamma was messed up and I ran him into the water ouside of the cave and he was killed by a trout before he was 5 minutes old. Deleted and rerolled him and he is now a 66 Druid who basicaly sits on the shelf as we develope new characters. Between us, my wife and I have 5 accounts with a total of 40 characters on The Rathe.

We play on the average of 3 hours every night and about a total of 10 hours on weekends when we aren't involved in anything else.

Oh, and we are in our 60's - rather do something that requires a little thought than watch the trash on TV.

Came over from UO at the urging of a friend in 1999. Made a human paladin who couldn't see a thing at night. Formed a in 2000 on Tarew Marr. Left with the server split to the newly formed Xev. Reformed my guild there. Survived the server merger with Druzzil Paladin still being played and still running the same guild to this day.

Joined in 1999. My first char was on Luclin and I do believe I was a Rogue. I have taken breaks inbetween then and even said I would never play EQ ever again. Well I'm back once again playing EQ now play on Prexus and I have a cleric and a rogue :)

Larorne Soulgazer 63 Cleric
Kakanina 20 Rogue(No last name yet can't figure out a good one for her any suggestions?)

I started in Sept of 2001. Couple of friends got me to start. I played a DE necro from the very beggining until about 4 months ago. Playing around with a halfelf bard now. I have taken a few breaks here and there, longest being a year(deployment). Still here though, still addicted.

Started in late '99 on the ex's account. I raised a cleric to the lofty heights of lvl 24 (hey, this was a big deal back then) when things ended between us the next year and I had to get my own account. I actually bought a computer just to play on since my older one couldn't handle the game. To be fair, there wasn't much my old computer could handle so it was a good idea regardless.

So my current account was started in 2000 but I started playing a little before that.

I started playing back in 2002, started a half elf female pally by the name of Ayko. I died and gave up. Since then I listened to my best friend, my uncles and my best friends brother talk EQ until my friend got me back into in October. I started a Ranger of all things on his account. Got him to thirteen, then for Christmas (althought I got it at the end of october) I got my own account. I started several different characters, and stuck with a froglok necromancer that I've gotten to lvl 28. I also have a lvl 10 SHD named Destroying. So yes I'm a newbie but I had the advantage of knowing most the lingo before I really stepped into the game.

Well my friend so it to me about 3 years ago, and let me play on his a little. After that I had to ahve it. I had a slow computer but I thought it might work. So I went out and bought Evolution, then I try to install it and it didn't work.

So I held on to it for a couple years until I finaly got a computer to play it. So I've only been playing about a year.

I started playing in August 2004 at the behest of a friend on Druzzil Ro server. Quit in February 2005 to play Star Wars Galaxies but came back in December after SWG's massive change.

I first joined just before Luclin came out, which I believe was sometime in 2001. Good times back then. Played a druid so I could port, then played a rogue who is now my main.

Started in October 2004 on NL right before EQ2. Just got dsl, played rts and fps games, never online gaming. First toon was a Warrior. Spent more time looking for my corpse then playing..,mostly soloed (not a smart idea). Thankfully, my g/f took pity on me and started playing as a Cleric. I still remember finding out what a rez was for.."Ooohh it takes me to my corpse YEAH!" I was afraid to click the book in East Freeport and was astonished at the size of PoK.

In November 2004, We got 2 puters and played on FV server for 6 months. We took a break and found ourselves in a little town called Test Server with a total of 4 accounts and a guild. Nice town where everyone knows ya...gonna be here a bit.

2000, when my mum got into it. i made a half elf pally, lol.. never got too far with that, mostly because my mum played alot. then we went off game for awhile. then, about a year ago <time passes fast...lol) i started up again after my mum re-bought EQ platinum. i made a bst, because that was the last toon i tried before we quit. i hate bst. LOL then i converted an alt, linkdeath into my main and here i am.
lol now my mum tells me to play her toon X-D lol she watches me play and says 'i can play druid better' yet i've got that druid up the last 20 levels.. wheateva.
i rekon from being a pally that's why i like tanks so much.. tho pally arent really what i like to call tank..morel ike prissy little do-gooders..
