Maybe if we were playing a Communism real world game, we could all be super equal and it would be fun.

I think soviets were fun bad guys sometimes too. Their uniforms aren't that bad looking.

Video games are intentionally designed to be fair otherwise nobody would play them, duh. WoW and EQ are no different. They certainly look different and play different but they both designed from the ground up to be as fair as possible for maximum fun for all. If you create an unfair video game you're practically punching yourself in the face and deserve a darwin award.

Somebody at verant decided, later on, after the fact, to create pre-nerf loot for some inexplicable reason which created 2 circles of players when there should only be 1.
