I was involved with Scarab from late EQ beta (via a blip in history known as "Graconia"), but I didn't officially join until a few weeks after EQ's release in March '99. This is because "back in the day" the recruit quest involved getting Jumjum Juice, which could only be found in the dark (newbie) forests of Riverdale... and that wasn't the easiest thing for a young lil' elf like myself to get.

But, I got the jumjum, joined Scarab, and have been addicted to the stuff ever since. If Macedon were to reactive his account, the jumjum juice would probably still be in his bank box.
