Here is a great interview with Everquest producer Brad McQuaid and Kevin McPherson from Game Studies. The interview is from 2004-2005, so it is a little dated, but very interesting to say the least.
Interview with Brad McQuaid and Kevin McPherson
by Eric Hayot, Edward Wesp
Brad McQuaid was the co-designer of EverQuest, managing the development team from the project's inception until its launch. He later became a founder of Verant Interactive and its Vice President. Kevin McPherson was one of the first EverQuest team members, working just under 3 years on the project on primarily the EverQuest client, and also writing the original background and setting for the Ruins of Kunark expansion.
This interview was conducted via email in late 2004 and 2005. In some cases, only one of the two interviewees had a response to the question. The order of the questions here is thematic rather than chronological.

In keeping with the EQ nostalgia Raph Koster is devoting this month to EQ Game Studies and publishing other interesting pieces on the history of EQ.
Also, the poll Sony ran for the new server came out to be the 51/50 server.
Yay???!!! Anyone ??
With all the HYPE old schoolers have for the game and wanting to come back to EQ, classic server would of been the way to go on this one.
So, some folks got together and started a petition to roll out a classic server.
It can be found at HERE. - http://www.classiceqpetition.com/
I'll have to say that the memories I have of the years and years I played EQ are some of the best. So, yes an EQ Classic server would get me to resub again if Sony would open one.
