What we have on p99 is the 2001 equivalent of merging all level 60's from 6 servers onto one server and the 1-59 crowd was taken from the test server.

The members of those guilds also had ONE level 60 main (rarely some individuals dual box leveled, and had two lvl 60 mains). They were content on raid gearing one room and MAYBE one alt. Shit I remember doing Halls of Testing/plane of growth farms early Velious and our guild would only have maybe 10 level 60s there. 75% of the people at the raid would be levels 55 - 59.

They didn't have 8 or 10 or 12 level 60s to feed like many players here do.

These people not only want all of their alts geared in BIS Velious gear, but they care equally as much about ensuring that other people never get said gear themselves. Something about "exclusivity" is what I usually hear people mumble.

Sadly it seems like people on live, back in the year 2000, cared less about this "exclusivity" than people on p99 do today.

And I played on a fucking pvp server during live so competition for pve gear (that allowed you to subsequently dominate in pvp) was even more intense than most blue servers at the time.
