Not true at all, but what does seem to be unique to P99 is that there are sort of two ticks. If you watch your mana you'll see it rise; on live, that'd be the moment you stand and start dancing. But on P99, because of some networking issue with the server that makes it out of sync with the client in some way, you have to wait a sec, and see it fall a moment later: that is when you want to dance.

... or at least something like that. I think different people might see it differently based on their network, so maybe play with it if the above doesn't work. But the basic idea is you want to wait a little after when you normally would have started dancing on live.
There is no single pattern to follow to correctly canni-dance on p99. The way the mana moves always looks different and is never synced with the true tick. The only way to know if you are canni-dancing correctly is to watch your mana over the course of multiple ticks (3 or more) and make sure you get the proper amount of mana for meditation + cannibalize.

By the time you need to canni again, the tick will be in a different place. It's very easy to cani-dance in a way that will have you standing for every tick, in which case the spell is completely useless and you would be better off not using cannibalize at all and it would be more mana efficient to never cast regen/chloro/regrowth on yourself.

It actually a massive issue for Shaman that doesn't get fixed until level 58.
