Well to see how the world is I intend to start a new character my old ones are where I left them but I do not intend to play them so I won't be getting a mount so since that is the only problem I guess that is fine. I just checked on them they are exactly where I left them.
Those that get their account reactivated, check out the new player housing in EQ if you're interested. Today's patch made it so anybody can zone into those housing zones, it used to require you to have the latest expansion House of Thule. Housing zone is located in the guild lobby NW corner, with a gate.
You can see how EQ has progressed as some of the things you can do with player housing is really cool. Just fyi for those interested in housing. It certainly isn't as exciting as Fippy
my eq acc is on pending... maybe they only active it for vets from the release or who got multi game acc?
*lol i haven't play since Nov 16 2005
Pending means it's active. Pending is just a wording means it's pending renewal. Otherwise it would say inactive. So hurry go download the game and login
Oh pooey the House of Thule the Amazon one which is way cheaper than the 35 euros I will have to pay is only availabe to US billing addresses. Curse mutter Hate !!!

brings back the memories - man its hard to forget your first (excluding them txt based ones)
Do i keep it a happy memory or risk logging on and seeing if the game is playable.
Im assuming that the pgress server starts at lvl 1 for all toons?
Correct it's a new server, everybody starts over at lvl 1. So no high levels twinking lowbies, no influx of money to ruin the economy, everything is reset. If there's a time to check out EQ again, I'd say now is a good time. At least you know you'll be playing with those of us that enjoyed EQ back in the days, so it'll be a bunch of people seeking nostalgia & plain 'ol fun.
Well they finally announced it today, I guess technically it starts today but some people have simply checked their accounts earlier lol.

It’s time to get back into the swing of things. Starting February 10th, all accounts in good standing will be reactivated, for free! That’s right, we’re inviting everyone with a lapsed account to log on and check out all the exciting things going on! Take this opportunity to visit old friends, see the new sights, or roll a new character on our upcoming Time Locked Progression Server: Fippy Darkpaw, launching February 15th!
Revisit old haunts or find new ones in the wide world of Norrath. Do you remember the Gnolls of Blackburrow? The Orcs of Crushbone? The Plains of Karana? Mistmoore, Cazic Thule, Unrest, Guk? Steamfont, Butcherblock, Innothule? How about the deserts of Ro, Oasis, Freeport, and Highpass? Do you recall the towering trees of Greater Faydark and Surefall Glade? Do you recall the fires of Neriak, or the forges of Kaladim? Go back and experience them all again as they were in the beginning, or see what you missed the first time! Take up your rusty sword, dagger, axe, or worn great staff and venture out into the lands of Norrath! But remember, it isn’t safe to go too far into the wilds alone. Bring friends. Bring all your friends. Why not? It’s free!
Log in now to relive your favorite EverQuest moments and get a fresh start in the world of Norrath. We’ll be waiting. And remember, you’re in our world now. Again.

My account was reactivated as well. I download the game from the link in the email and it shows no servers in the list when I log in. Any ideas on the what the problem might be?
The first big download button. That's the one you got and installed right?
Looks like some others are having the same problems are you in this thread, you can probably follow up in that thread. I nudged a coder about this, hopefully he can help you guys solve this problem.

I think its saying I only ever had a trial account even though I know I had a paid sub. Will have to try the trial launcher and see if that works.
edit: Turns out they reactivated an old trial account I had. My paid sub account did not get the free reactivation.

You can't mount using old models. But then on Fippy, you won't get to use any mounts until I think LDoN or somethin around that time.
