They do get pretty boring pretty fast.
I recommend the Irreverent server personally for a server of that type.
It was a week or two's play in it and is less tedious than some.
Some of these servers just spam loot at you and the trouble is you've levelled up for the next tier of zone while you're still trying to collect the armor set or w/e is there.
Generally the sign of a bad server is when the orcs in Crushbone are walking around with epic 1.0s. (Altho, the hidden forest looks interesting despite that, the guy is certainly ambitious if nothing else)
I'd like to see a good server that's designed for maybe 3 boxing level where the raid events are tuned to be groupable too. Having grinded on EQ for years I can't stand 1 x EXP or having to form a massive raid to beat something. But solo servers also just tend to be a gear check at the top end which is boring as hell.
Or worse than that, they have terribly tuned group content which defies the point of the server.
