You're forgetting a few for this
list.
Your eagerness to hit level 70 is directly
proportional to the amount of time it takes to get there.
Your chance to hit level 70 will invariably be
impeded at the least most convenient time; i.e. your internet service gets
shut off, your computer crashes, your account gets hacked and you get banned
from EverQuest until you can get it sorted out.
That mob you've been camping for 5 hours will
be interrupted by the servers going down for 10 hours for a patch, only to
find someone else has gotten there before you when the servers come back
up. (e.g. Hadden for the fishbone Earring - I've had this
happen to me)
You know you've played EQ too long when you're out
in a boat and don't even notice the bobbing motion cause you're so used to
Spirit of Eagle cast on you.

PS Does anyone bother to do the Testament of Vanear
quest any more?
