Looking for a server.

Having played on Shards of Dalaya, I would only recomend that server if you want a totally screwy resist system, a hot air ballon inflated economy, and the inability to make the money to buy anything until your 60+. The only redeeming factor to that server is the treasure maps, those are the only real fun. Other than that, its kinda lame. I would try Stormhaven or the Grand Creation.

I'm just recommending a mature place with a healthy population supply at all times. It's one of the best servers to find people to play and group with. The server has been around for just about 5 years now IIRC and it's solid as a rock. The game is more difficult than live if you want more of a challenge. If you're into raiding, the raid cap is 18 players (3 groups), which means each person plays a pivotal role and is important for the raids. There is several raid zones fully populated and several raiding guilds.

And run by a jerk

Be nice, please. Even though they aren't affiliated with, and don't participate in the EQEmu project, it is still against the rules to flame people in any way here. I don't even know who runs SoD, but no matter what their attitude is, I am sure they have put a good deal of work into their server. That at least deserves some respect and common decency, IMO.

Actually, never had any problems with the people that admin/dev SoD. However, they refuse to implement a bazaar type deal for buying/selling, forcing you to tediously scroll through all 200+ vendors to compare prices on the one item you want. Since most people don't want to do that, they buy it at the first price they come to, which is usually grossly inflated. Money is practically impossible to get in any amount until you're 60+, and even then its damn hard. The resist system is all CHA based, and since you can't really afford any kind of gear until 60+, leveling is a pain for casting classed because your spells are resisted, and your mana regen takes a half hour. I would stick with one of the Emu servers, Grand Creation or Stormhaven.
