The next patch will put on some changes on the death penalties for Everquest. Since now new players respawn after each death with full gear and no exp loss until level 10, and with no exp loss but the need to recover your gear at level 11.
The incoming change will give a low xp penalty since level 6 "to start introducing death penalties while players are still in the relatively safe area of Gloomingdeep".

This looks like the right place to whine about it.
