The period that guy is referring to is the period right when the game was released. There were no rules in place because it was the first game of its kind really and the CSR staff had no idea about how big of dicks people on the Internet could be. They didn't conceive of the various ways that people would abuse the game's mechanics and grief others because griefing as a concept didn't even exist yet so they didn't think about it.
So what happened was you had GMs on different servers enforcing things different ways for a period of time. Some were more stringent than others. However, the rules/play nice policy were quickly put in place and guided how we resolved disputes in game from then on.
So that person's claim that there were never any rules in classic EQ is just completely false.
