That depends on the server.
Some servers are just KNOWN for being packed full of noobs and jerks.
Now this MAY sound lame...but it's true. EQ servers tend to be named after 'gods' of the game, and gods in EQ are gods of 'something'. For example the Zeks are various gods of war and PVP servers are all some sort of Zek.
Bertoxxious is the god of disease and ppl on that server often are idiots. On the server I play on Mith Marr, god of justice, love and truth....people cyber..a lot....and then cyber some more...umm...but overall are very nice.
I have had VERY few nasty experiences in EQ.
At the same time, you WILL get treated like worthless shit if you come into EQ and ask things that you 'should' know from the manual.
Also, EQ has become MUCH more noob friendly and you get XP at about 3 times the rate you used to. It really pisses off the 'old timers' - the guys who got to 60 back in the days of Kunark and it took them months. Now you can do 0 - 60 in 2 months without ANY powelevling.
I personaly felt that the DAoC crowd had a far lower maturity level. Many seemed to be the Diablo crowd, as in 15-26 while EQ avg is 30ish.
And Umm...you can't return EQ.
