for what it's worth
it's unclear as to whether or not he meant that the spell gets resisted or it requires several casts to remove all buffs including the DoT(maybe the DoT was buried under his buffs?)

edit 2: even more info
this thread from january 2001 has some more anecdotal information regarding dispels

Good info. It's still a little conflicting, but we're getting somewhere.

Question: if that's how dispels worked, why was two insta-clickies such a staple in PvP and basically required in order to compete at the top? And why the seemingly universal belief that dispels always targeted the first buffs?

My memory tells me that's how it was, but it's very possible that I just can't remember what the hell was going on ten years ago. Anyone feel like digging through patch notes? I don't have time right now, might do it tomorrow if nobody has by then.
