Pretty sure they had forums back then and kept track of stuff the same way, even if the spreadsheets weren't color coded.

Dude....come on....this is a whole different level than 2001. There's no way. Guilds weren't downing the entire xpac from Day 1. They weren't keeping track of each kill to gloat to the rest of the server on the boards. Boss kills weren't even guaranteed for quite some time, let alone hundreds of them in a matter of weeks. Because of the release of new content they were quickly shifting priorities and spending considerable resources just figuring out how to kill mobs. They did not have a stranglehold on the server with their alt army. They did not field 100 for a raid at any hour of the day.
The point is the neckbeards will continue to be neckbeards and you either play on their terms or get sick of the game and do something else. Everyone is just talking in circles. They will never get sick of it, this is their "fun." Much like a lot of my "fun" is calling them out on it. Many hardcore classic players who saw the BS on this server and were also calling the hegemony on their BS quit years ago, knowing that it would never change.
Instead of instancing just ban Chardok AOE but its too late for that. The Chardok ban would have drastically reduced the level 60 population of this server. Drastically. Literally "decimate" - reduce to a tenth of what it once was. It was the only really viable solution that could have easily come from an "unclassic" decree from the staff in order to prevent the headache that is Lawyerquest and would ultimately be for the long-term health of the server. We all know that there was a serious lobby against that ever happening, and they were successful.
Its too late now. We've been trying to create "rules" for years and it always gets to the point where one group of manbabies wants to stop abiding by them. Wash, rinse, repeat. Its been the usual suspects for years. Most players here are too new to even realize and know no different.
