It's not that twinking wasn't common on live in 2000ish, its just that twinking to this degree wasn't.
on live, pre 2002ish>? maybe later
I had never seen a twink with a COF/Fungi/Tstaff. It was unheard of. on p1999 it's pretty much the only way to qualify as a twink.
For every class minus casters (which can't REALLY be twinked before velious) the degree of twinking is insane.
Epics are commonplace (minus a few) on twinks
There are almost no "oh shit" items left except for ones that were nerfed out quickly.

Maybe
you didn't see it, but I can remember all sorts of early live twinking. Hell, I can remember inspecting a L9 druid with a CoF and other dragon loot before Kunark... I was playing my freshly minted newb in July of 1999.
So with the game out for a full 4 months... people were twinking alts with abandon. Hell, after I saved up and had full bronze by L10, I was accused of being a twink.
You must have played with your eyes shut really tight back in the day =)
