Each server has its own game ruleset, its own community... I dare say, its own personality. Many of the servers aren't run by the devs but by other EQEmu fans who haven't written one line into the server code. Blaming the devs who simply write the server code really doesn't make any sense to me.
Something else you mentioned is you spent the most of your time on the Emu test server. Which, last time I checked, is non-legit. EQ is an RPG, and part of the fun in RPG's come from character progression over a long term. When you use #level to get that instant 65, what have you accomplished? The first character I made on the test server, I actually leveled it up to 30 the old fashioned way -- granted the xp multiplier seemed a lot faster than Live but still I earned my levels. I only #leveled it to 65 later to test a few things, which last I checked is what a test server is for.
If you have a good idea for a server, you should've pitched it here or if you have the resources, run it yourself.
