Didn't every single live server have a raid calender?

No. Many did not because they had communities able to work something out that wasn't a straight up rotation.

Well, we don't. So maybe that's a better option?

In other words, we're too stupid to figure this out for ourselves, so why not let the staff tell us what to do and when to do it?

The staff has made it pretty clear that they want us to work it out amongst ourselves.

I don't see that happening, do you? Does anyone?

Back in true classic, most didnt have cable to stay online and camp like this 24/7. Im sure if majority(if not all) of the population had cable like we do these days, Im sure this would have been seen more, in all honesty.

The dominate guilds prevailed because they just happened to be on in force when stuff spawned and mobilized to it, usually knowing when it would spawn. Also most servers didnt have as high of volume of guilds able/willing to raid. Most came to p99 to re-live the classic raiding experience, thus we see more raiders available on 1 server compared to then.

Yup. And also I don't remember being able to bat phone through internet programs to alert the guild to log in and kill bosses at 4 A.M... Because God forbid a raid target lives longer than an hour after popping.

IRC wut?

But no seriously IRC was the oldschool batphone. You'd sit in it in a guildchannel if you weren't online
