The "competition" on p99 is 100% a contrivance of p99. The VAST majority of live servers did not have guild vs guild competition in the raid scene. I played on 3 different servers on live and had friends across half a dozen others that I regularly kept up with.

Most servers had a single top guild gobbling up most content and occasionally a lesser tier guild killing random stuff they could find up and that was it. Hell a lot of servers had GM mandated rotations. It was incredibly rare to find a server with more than a single guild killing the cutting edge expansions raid mobs. Then eventually EQ put in instances for most raiding and that was that.

EQ was more popular and had more subs in a time when raids were instanced than they did during the era when they weren't. WoW was leaps and bounds more popular than EQ ever dreamed of being and was largely responsible for the downfall in popularity and exodus of a lot of the EQ player base and they had instanced raiding basically from day 1.

Hyper competitive pvevp was not a thing in era.

If we really want to be classic, p99 servers should only be available 5-8pm Monday to Friday and 6am-10pm on Saturday/Sunday to simulate after school hours. Then on random days it should extend to 1am but also randomly close early to simulate staying up late but being caught by mom.

Well yes and no. Many servers actually did have about two top guilds battling with each other. Many servers did not, but it certainly wasn't the vast majority. As CSR in era on multiple servers, there were definitely many servers that had more than one top guild.

The big difference with P99 is that it never progresses past expansion number 2. So the top couple of guilds never move on to the newest expansion raid content, thus never allowing the smaller guilds to have their shot at anything.
