I do take the point that it isn't "classic".
But, we have:

• FTE broadcasts
• raid mob lock-outs for guilds
• division into Class C and Class R raid mobs / guilds
• GM enforced raid bans for breach of these raiding rules

None of these measures are classic. They have all been introduced to help improve the raid scene. If we can have these non-classic measures, then I would suggest it is also feasible to have the non-classic instancing.

With regards to picking and chosing instancing, or making everything instanced.
I know that this would completely change the entire raid scene. That was why I only suggested ToV as an instanced raiding environment. I suggested this as it is (arguably) the top end raid zone. I am not suggesting that anything else be instanced, only ToV.

In response to the comment that I should simply go to another server. Well, I really like this server, and I think the team running it are doing a great job. I don't want to leave! I just want a chance for me personally, (and for all the other guilds who aren't hardcore raiders) to raid in ToV.

All classic actually. GM intervention was common among most servers in the raiding scene. Said intervention exists here.

Though I completely disagree with instanced content since it completely runes the immersion of the classic experience, it's not unrealistic to assume if amount of pop that battled for end game here existed on live during this period that intervention from the devs would of possibly been along similar lines, well, granted that doing things like instanced content wasn't out of their realm of knowledge and code at the time. That I can't say.

Anyways, back to the ignorant not classic spam.

Not classic!
