I don't like the idea of blaming the common people for common people behavior. I've been arguing that the system of rules is wack for a long time. The consistency isn't there..... Which allows for GMs and Guides to be flexible in situations but it also will create a lot of hurt feelings over the inevitable inconsistency. People are simply trying to compete to improve their character. No one wants to run around dying with a level 1 character forever. People derive fun from winning and improving. Is Super Mario fun if you never make it past the 1st level?
Things are very limited in classic with only so much to camp. People competing hard for them was going to be an inevitability.
