How...??

Is he supposed to post old screenshots of bards leveling via groups instead of swarming?

Nobody can even point to a single thread, screenshot, rant, or anything about bards mass kiting or entire zone AE groups in classic. Surely there must be at least a couple rant threads and attempted shame screenshots on the web somewhere, look how many there are here and live had significantly more players. No screenshots of mass AEing from proud exploiters? Nothing at all? lol

The people here saying they AEed in classic are wrong, thinking about later eras when classic zones were empty and hardware had improved significantly. You would have had GMs on your ass in 30 seconds trying to AE all of KC on live in actual classic-velious era if you could even pull it off to begin with. You may have been kiting small swarms and AEing small groups of mobs but you were not doing anything like whats happening in Chardok.

Not many people had a sub-100 ping in 1999-2000 I'm guessing, plus I wouldn't want to try kiting on that scale with the classic UI

So if it's not classic, that's grounds to remove it?

The new blue P1999 server that will eventually be released was already strongly implied to have changes made to it for a better, healthier game. Both bard kiting and AoE farming will be targeted, no doubt. The big question will be if the more recently upcoming Red Teams server will have their ideas for a healthier server put in. Current Blue & Red area lost cause - it's the new stuff that has my attention.

Proof on that? Anything said anywhere?
