I just started my char on FFXI, and I love it!!!! Reminds me of EQ quite a bit, though there are plenty of differences to make it feel new and fun, but plenty of similarities to make it familiar. If you have ever played EQ, and even liked it remotely, you will like this game!!!!
Here is a link to a FFXI forum on Safehouse, a EQ rogue board. There is lots of useful information on this board for one to use...

Feel free to post any info about your character here that you want:
SHO Handle/ Server / Character Handle/ Race/ Job/Sub-Job/Alliegiance
Curufinn / Cerebrus / Murazor / Elvaan / Warrior / - / San D'Oria
All server assignments are random, but here is a way to "cheat" the system:
Go through character creation. Choose a national alliegiance. Confirm alliegiance. At this point, you will come to a "Handle" screen with slots for three handles. At this point, do not enter handle data, just hit esc. key. This will take you to the main screen for character selection. Go to Delete Character. Select the character of interest. On the left of the screen will be displayed pertinent data about your character, along with what server you are on. If you want a different server, choose delete for the character in question, and delete him/her. Re-create your character, then check to see the server. Wash, rinse, repeat until you have the desired server. When you have the server you desire, merely go back, choose select character, and complete character creation. Done!!
If you like EQ or Final Fantasy at all, you will love the game!!!
