The only people playing rogues were those who loved the class for what it was, flaws and all. Low level MQs completely changed that demographic.
Rogues became a twink class which anyone with a large chunk of plat could roll a level one with a fungi and solo to 50. Many were originally solo casters and awful at playing a melee. Lazy players who'd AFK all the time while acting like you were lucky to have them. I guess you were if they'd actually pay attention and backstab, of course then they'd be tanking. God help them if they didn't have a fungi, because no sub-50 warrior had a snowballs chance in hell to hold agro off them. Which lead to these twinks having no concept of agro control when they hit Sebilis.
Probably the worst thing to come of it was the rampant discrimination faced by any poor rogue without an epic. Plenty of people got denied groups because the population got so used to rogues twinks. And if you did get a group you caught shit about not having it. The whole thing was a disaster. MQs made a joke of my class and broke the low level game. Good riddance.

So let me get this right. Because some people are douche bags, you think that makes this okay to nerf all epics? Is this really your best reason/argument against people that can, having a ragebringer, spear of fate, sprinkler, celestial fists?
Seriously? Tell me you have something better.
edit - Also what makes you think the same douchebaggery wont exist at lv 46 for rogues without epics? Oh wait it wont solve that, just delay it.
