Ogre wizards, high elf SKs, etc.
In 2004-era EQ2, the only way to become a high-elf SK was to betray Qeynos, then slowly earn the trust (or at least tolerance) of Freeport over the course of a long quest-line which left you homeless and unable to enter either capital.

When you saw a 'good' race playing an evil class or a dark-elf paladin, you knew there was some important background going on there. They had earned it with blood, sweat and tears. That kind of improved my immersion.

And then they just let anyone do it...
