1. The idea of 'camps' didnt even exist back then so of course there was no official support (for or against them)
2. Unlike P99, all the players on live were paying customers, so of course the company isn't going to be as welcoming to ban / suspend accounts since that directly affects their pay
3. People are still encouraged to share spawns. People are just more greedy / know how to solo them more efficiently than back then.
4. No one is "immediately threatened with suspensions" in a camp dispute. I have been part of several, on the accusing and accused sides, and not once have I seen any mention of suspension. You would only get suspended for either major KS (like SF) or repeated camp issues.

Don't know if trolling, but 20 years and a completely different meta changes a lot.

I couldn't disagree more with this, at least on Bristlebane in 2000-2001. Camps were already defined by the time I joined and people (I remember a necro forum) had figured out the best ways to level. My live necro followed a 1-50 guide were it took you to the best mobs per level, the best spell combs to use and how to use them. It was already min/maxed.

I dinged 51 the first day of Kunark, by the time my friends and me made it to old Seb the camps were already set, 4 Door (crypt) in particular.

I don't remember a GM/guide ever getting involved about sharing camps.
