Lack of class balance is one of the biggest charms of this classic server. I like to feel special in the role I've chosen, knowing that I can do things that other classes just can't do, or can't do as effectively.
Look at WoW, where everyone gets their panties in a bunch when a patch has nerfed the shaman to heal for 1% less HPS than a druid, or a rogue does 1% less DPS than a hunter. It's a nightmare for every game designer to make every DPS spec do exactly the same DPS, and every heal spec heals the same HPS. And what have they gained? A bunch of generic classes that can basically all do the same, just with a different name.
Balance is boring.

This. I've used the term "balanced to death" to describe other MMORPGs out there.
Once you've completely balanced everything you might as well be playing a word processor.
Indeed, balance is borning.
