Flashback Moment:
Desert of Rho with the spectres. Everyone not fighting would sit on the dock healing, resting, looking for spells (speed, strength, etc.) or waiting for the boat and almost every 15 minutes like clockwork would come a huge troll, mummy, or spectre train on the dock. Typicically slaughtering almost everyone.

Good times.
Serendipitously, I got an email from them with this today:

"Free Adventure Service
Now Available!
Released from deep within the dark and dangerous depths of Norrath, a new free adventure service emerges, EverQuest® II Extended! SOE has liberated portions of the critically acclaimed PC franchise, EverQuest II, including five plus years of impressive, award-winning content to online adventurers, free. EverQuest II Extended joins the highly successful EverQuest II live subscription service, and together, provide EQII players with a choice of either a subscription-based or free-to-play business model -- two distinct experiences operating in parallel, a first in the MMO industry! "

So they are wisely moving to a free model with selling l3wts.
