there have been a few charm guides dug up and posted here suggesting, with various degrees of interpretative nuance, that charm worked pretty much the same way on classic live

it wasn't easy though, and so most people never tried it. or even thought to. yes, the community did get better at sharing information and tactics over decades of emulation and tlp's. that's not an unreasonable assertion. whether people did charm killing (or bard kiting, for another related example) or not on a mass scale in year 1999 or 200x is something we can debate anecdotally, but imo it does not have a significant impact on the debate over MR rates, etc, which I think is the more important topic, and the one demanding numerical evidence that has so far been pretty much out of reach
