Simple as that, if a main needed it, nobody's alt was getting it, and downhill from there. Got tricky if someone got asked to play their cleric due to a shortage, but there's no perfect system.
The problem became newly passed applicants mains were pushing out people's alts from ever getting any loot (think warrior planar pieces or similar)...so with a lot of thought a DKP system was introduced.

We still partially use the Mains > Alts > Trialist rule. For example, a main can bid all the dkp he wants. Any (alt) char below 55 (unless it's a main) can never outbid a main, but if the alt is 55 or higher they can bid as if they were a main (to still get gear for raiding/useful alts). Lastly, trialists can never bid more than 1 dkp on anything.
