Your last paragraph is the core issue that has faced EQ since it's live launch. If the ZEM changes were removed from the Hole, people would just go monopolize the next best zone. I suppose that would be considered, classic?

This is the beauty of "dark" ZEM changes, ie. ZEM changes made without informing the player base. Such changes
might actually be 100% classic (if they were, we players wouldn't have known, right?) Actually, with Show EQ, maybe we would have ... but even if Verant
wasn't periodically/secretly changing ZEMs without telling us ... that certainly
seems like a very Verant thing to do.
The best solution in my mind is for staff to say "we're going to change ZEMs, secretly and periodically", and then say nothing more. Hell, they could even say that and not actually do it! I can all but guarantee that simply saying it would be enough that, after every patch, we'd have multiple threads to the effect of "does it feel like the Hole's XP is lower post-patch?"

Players hunting the mythical "best XP zone" (again, even if the staff never actually made one) would drive adoption of alternate dungeons ... or at least would do so more than the current system.
