WoW is nothing like Everquest. Ok, fine, it does have a lot of similarities, but the major thing that people complained about EQ is gone: the leveling up "grind." I have no idea what bunnybashing is, but I assume it's simply leveling up over and over. I've played the WoW beta a good bit now, and one major theme that no one talks about is how <B>WoW is entirely quest driven</B>. I don't mean a few quests here and there like EQ, either. I got my Undead Warrior to level 11 doing quests. I didn't "level up" once. If I fought enemies, it was through a quest, so you feel like it's for a reason. It is for a reason...it's to complete the quest, get your reward, and learn more about the cool as hell story. Blizzard says there's over 1,000 quests in the game, and I believe it 100%.
