What you have missed
Installing EverQuest
For many expansions now SoE only had Digital Download for new expansions. So there are no more discs to buy at the store. This is bad news for those of you with slow connection because you will have to download EverQuest. Go to this SoE website and follow these directions from SOE's CS people. 1. Create a new folder for your EverQuest game to be installed into: A. Double-click on My Computer B. Double-click on Local Disk (C) (You may need to click on "Show the contents of this disk") C. Double-click on Program Files (You may need to click on "Show the contents of this folder") D. Click on FILE-->New-->Folder (at the top of the window) and name the folder EverQuest 3. Move the patcher into the EverQuest folder by double-clicking on EverQuest.zip. 4. Right-click on EverQuest.exe and choose "Cut" 5. Switch to the EverQuest directory you just made, and right-click inside it. Choose "Paste" 6. Right-click on EverQuest.exe that is now inside the EverQuest folder you just made, and choose "Send to Desktop (create shortcut)" 7. Delete the file EverQuest.zip from your Desktop, then double-click on Shortcut to EverQuest.exe 8. This will patch all of the files for you
Where are my characters?
SoE tends to keep characters around for many many years in hopes you'll return
When SOE did the server merge, they wiped out lower level characters (level 10 and lower) if those characters had not been logged in the last 6 months prior to the merge.
If you had a character name that was the same as somebody on the server being merged, they would give the name to the person who created the character first. The other person would have the letter “x” added to his name. So if you had 2 people named Eragorn, one would become Eragornx.
