Do you honestly believe what you're typing?. You think Ivandyr's Hoop races are the true classic experience and not raid calendars? What server did you play on and in what guild where this was the standard procedure?
No, Ivandyr's Hoops need nerfed we all know that. That's really just one example that you singled out though so I'll go ahead and list some more an answer them.

In regards to preperation:
The best guild had resist gears sets: check
The best guild knew when important mobs spawned: check
The best guild had strategies to mobilize for these spawns: check
The best guild had people dedicated to playing the game more and being ready to drop what they were doing to kill dragons: check
The best guild overall cared and spent more time worrying about these dragons: check

Now in regards to how raids went down..
There was a rotation: Hahahahaha, no.
There was a TON of training: check
There was a lot of nefarious raid strategies used: check (LET THEM WEAKEN IT)
There was massive cockblocking for content, especially over keyed zones: check
There were often the one or 2 top guilds trying to kill mobs in the zone at the same time, and fighting tooth and nail over stuff: check

I played on Tarew-Marr btw! And I was in a lot of guilds. Everything I just described was in the past. It's already far more carebear on this server than it ever was on mine!
