Why were we so bad in 1999?

[Ataria]

I played a bard on live, and I remember I never, ever had to pull in groups. Not sure why (p99 bards pull all the time), but I remember I did have to pull CT, every raid. It was my only job, and I remember hating the cleric!! I would beg him please don't let me die this time when I bring in CT! Little did I know he never really had a choice, due to CT's HT. I had no idea! Yet this cleric never said a word. But man, oh how I hated him! lol.

I do not think we were bad. We were so new to this vast game, the dynamics were so different- and now with the explosion of games, the mentality is get max lvl asap, get BIS, instead of exploring, learning along the way through trial and error etc.
