Druid run kiting DoTs nefed?

[Crusader]

As a returning classic player who played in 2000, I distinctly remember that druid run kiting DoTs were not penalized. Possibly Verant patched that in and later rescinded it, like many other things they did, but I have spoken to several old timer classic druid players and none remember run kiting DoTs being penalized. If you are a classic original EQ druid player, could you please respond to this post to clarify this.
