1. AB is most populated but most servers have a healthy population.2. TD has great rewards. Slightly to good but for stater gear start there.

i was also wondering, i just got the Digital download of Kunark but i am up able to down load it from the site, if i have  EQ2, DOF, KOS (CD's) and install them will it down load Kunark and EOF also automaticly when i patch?

For the server, it is more about your play times and your preferences...  It may be a good idea to search the <a rel="nofollow" href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/forums/list.m?category_id=43" target="_blank">Server Communities</a> forums to get an idea of what each server is like..As for the starting area, again, your preferences in class/race.  If you plan to be evil, then you must start in Freeport, Neriak or Gorowyn (only Sarnaks).  Good can start in Qeynos and in Greater Faydark.  WHen you create a character, you can see more about it all..Take a peek at some links for ideas...  <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.everquest2.com/classes.vm" target="_blank">Classes</a><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.everquest2.com/allraces.vm" target="_blank">Races</a>When you start a character, Good or evil, you can always bring them to Gorowyn to level.  Gorowyn is a Neutral city, but only Sarnak can actually start there.  I personally enjoy the Gorowyn starting area.  I have level 3 characters there in the last 2 weeks and enjoyed it thoroughly.  The quests give Nice XP, are fun and give good rewards for that level.But totally up to you....  No one can tell you what to do as I am sure that you have a different opinion...  there are many wonderful areas of the game.  You can try them all out if you choose to.If you have some installed already, the patcher should be able to update the rest...
