The Opening of AQ was mostly just a collection of server wide "Turn in 1000000 bandages", "Turn in 500000 smoked fish", "Pick 500000 of each herb".

Then you got to get screwed by the guild controlling all of it demanding a bribe from everyone else on the server and/or just opening the gates at like 3AM so no one got to experience it or get any of the loot associated with the opening.
