If you read through the posts on that website, there's a very clear nerf patch in like... Mid November 2001.
In the nerf the invisible NPCs disappear (because GM Hidden), and drop rates on thrones get absolutely obliterated.
But before that point, you have guys saying thrones 1/7 Alice mobs, 1/3 22. Double thrones off 22. Getting 6 thrones out of 20-30 AiW mobs. Getting 5 Thrones in a single night at AiW. Etc.
At the point of the nerf though the Funny Money combination using Top Left WoW + Complete WoW is discovered and Peachy starts asking for 4 Funny Money's. So it's possible the nerf coincided with that discovery or more likely they were patched in at the same time, making it so that you could complete armor without melting down 2-4 thrones just to get an armor box.
