Got some sites you might want to check out
Allakhazam- a very good site for looking up quest information
http://everquest.allakhazam.com
Eqtraders-- tradeskill info, gives recipes and where to find
ingredients, good place to look up Vahshir quests
http://www.eqtraders.com
Everquestraids-- site to get raids together. Mostly used by the big
guilds to schedule epics but it's also used for lower level raids.
You can look up guilds for your server from this site, that's how I
found my guild.
http://www.everquestraids.com
EQ links-- a general info site. You can look up links to other sites
on almost any EQ related topic.
http://www.eqlinks.com
There are many more sites out there but these are the ones I use most
often.
Specifically to the guy on FV: I've played on FV too and noticed that
not many people there are friendly. On Bristlebane, every five mins
in Sharvahl there is a shout about the citizen quest, I put locs that
are needed on hotkey so i didn't have to type it anymore. FV is a
hard server to learn about EQ on because of the ruleset. Try a
different server-- don't go for a PVP one till you understand how to
play better. Most of the people on FV have been playing for a long
time and they wanted a challenge, that's why they want to solo all
the time.
If you wanna come to Bristlebane look me up
