It's only relevant if the goal of this place is to be like live was ... but it's not like that is the entire goal of this place or anything (/em looks up at the upper-left corner) ... right?
You do know that VP keys are acquired by killing "regular mob" camps, right? If a single guild is locking down VP, they are probably monopolizing the Pained Soul camp, for example, to make sure all of their members and alts can get in to VP and kill dragons. Trakanon teeth are only one part of the VP key quest. Admitting there are guilds monopolizing VP on live during 2000 implies monopolization of the VP key camps in 2000 lol. And please do not try to argue that Pained Soul is not a "regular mob" camp because the only thing it drops is a raid specific item. If the exception to the monopoly rule is raid specific items, then idol would be included in that exception anyway, because idol is only really used on a regular basis in raiding.

As for your second point about the GM rulebook, it has nothing to do with P99, because we literally can't get the number of GMs that live had. I am not sure why you think it is relevant. Your earlier point about the /random idea in the GM rulebook relied on a GM being present to arbitrate the /random. If a GM is not present to arbitrate the /random, that entire section of the GM rulebook is not relevant, due to the GM condition not being met. Of course if two players can solve their issue with a simple /random roll, then neither the GM rulebook or the PnP was necessary in the first place, so it doesn't matter if the camp owner rule was in the PnP or not.
