Found this old interview with Brad and another developer from EQ and Vanguard. It was posted around 10 years ago but was done in 2004-06 range.

Two thumbs up! <3
Great interview - talk about a consistent message. This could have been written yesterday about Pantheon.
"at the time I left, for example, over half the people who’d ever tried EQ were still playing" cool!
