2 years into Kunark TMO had raid mobs/encounters on lock to a degree that I'm not sure has ever happened again past or present on p99. Greed was the reason somewhat but mostly because the guild wanted to be in a position to be dominant in velious when it was released.
There is much more *healthy* competition now and availability for epics and what-not.
IMO: Server is better for the casual player for the most part at the moment. The high end velious gear for most classes isn't make-or-break for any classs and there is little motivation to get it other than feeling good about yourself. The server is done progressing and I think most people realize that so there's more sharing and caring.
