I honestly don't remember when exactly when my Vox raid was (I was in college, and lots of pot was involved), so let's say it was in PoP (10/2002- 2/2003). EQ was released in March of 1999, which means there were open Vox raids on Bristlebane less than four 4 years after release.

P99 was released in October of 2009. Even if we imagine that Vox wasn't around until the next year that's still seven years that Vox has been killed on this server. In other words, it's taken about twice as long here before we got open dragon raids as it took on Bristlebane.

And that was just on Bristlebane ...



So look, I'm not saying top guilds never monopolized the dragons on live: clearly they did. But just as clearly, not all servers were the same: Bristlebane didn't have open raids until PoP while planarity's server had them in Velious. If we tried hard enough we could probably find a server where they started in Luclin.

Open dragon raids are classic. They happened on some servers during the classic period on live, and even if they didn't on other servers, they certainly happened a lot faster than seven years after release.
Luclin/pop is not classic
