They came here to play a competitive mmo, all or most of the "tier 2" guilds refused to compete on this server bc they did not feel that the raid scene was worth the amount of effort it required.

I think you misread the OP. The point said OP is trying to make is that EQ during the classic era was not necessarily the vicious competition seen here. Yes, the mechanics do create limits in ways that instances do not. However, during classic there were far fewer high level players. And of course we all know that variance is a pure P1999 thing.

TL;DR: P1999's endgame scene is not remotely classic, contrary to what some would have you believe.
